A review by klwpvfc
The Holiday Cottage by the Sea by Holly Martin

emotional funny hopeful lighthearted medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

Not my usual type of book, I tend to stay clear of the sappy romance genre however I received the second book in this series in a book box so I thought I should read this one first.
Sunshine Beach is a charming setting full of likeable characters, I particularly liked the interfering Aunt Agatha who has no filter whatsoever!
There was no great surprises in the outcome of the story, but it was quite a sweet little tale. If not a bit sickly as I may have to wait a while now until I read book 2!
