Trisha Ashley: The little teashop of lost and found

Hi there; 

When Alice Rose is found as a baby on the Yorkshire moors above Haworth. She's adopted by the nicest family and feels at home with them but when her adoptive dad dies and Alice is left with her evil step-mother, her life takes a turn. 

She runs away on the search for somewhere that feels like home. It seems only natural that she should return to Haworth  after spending so long looking for 'home.' Alice is a baker, experienced cafe owner and novelist. 

When the opportunity arises to buy a cafe in Haworth, she does. Of course the building is too good to be true, the previous owner not only took all the furniture she was promised but the place wasn't left in a clean state.


So after she has a run in with her absolutely gorgeous, antiques dealing neighbour, she finds herself swept into his loving family. They run a local BnB where Alice is automatically made to feel to feel at home. As Alice searches for her birth family, she turns her cafe around, finds inspiration for her novel and finds love. Her life is finally coming together and she feels inspired and happy.

What I'm describing is a rough overview of what happens in the story, there's a lot more going on, a lot of heartbreak, a lot of laughs and loads of recipes. Lots and lots of yummy recipes, they are worth it alone to read this book. 

The characters are wonderfully written, are absolutely hilarious and they all come together to make the parts of this story come together. It is definitely worth the read and you even snippets from her fantasy fairytale novel. 


Hope you like it,

Annie xx

Jane Casey: Maeve Kerrigan Series

Hey guys, I hope you're all well. I've just finished my Journalism course, (exam wise anyway) I'm just waiting on results. Ahhhhh.. As a wee treat to myself and much to Scott's dismay I bought myself the rest of Jane Casey's Maeve Kerrigan books, including the newest one. Thought I might as well as I loved The Kill which is the 5th book in the series, if memory serves me right and I got so invested in the characters I just had to know more about them. Beginning with The Burning which is roughly about a nasty serial killer targeting young women. His trademark is the fact he then burns his victims making identifying them and him more difficult. The 'first' one we come across as a live crime scene is one that they are not sure if this victim was murdered by the Burning Man. This leads Maeve down a different route trying to discover if this victim is one of the serial killers victims OR if its an entirely different case entirely. In this book we see the bir...

Katerina Diamond: The Teacher

Hey everyone, I hope you all are well. Yeah I suck at regular posts but I'm getting there. Recently it's hard to find the time to read, awk well. I'll get there! Very happy with this book haul. Thank you Amazon! I've even another batch ordered and hopefully will be delivered this week! Can't wait. It really is the simple things in life. I usually pick books either on reviews or from the suggestion section on Amazon. And this is what I've based my last couple of book buys on.  Can honestly say this book was a lot darker than I was expecting. I thought from the description that it was about a suicide and the events that lead up to it. However, that's really not what the book it about. It's told from about three perspectives, Abbey, Parker and DS Adrian Miles.  Abbeys' story is told through flashbacks to her past and her work life, Parker is a new intern at the museum where Abbey works and DS Miles is one of the detectives on the case of the...

Catherine King: Her mother's secret

Hey guys, another post so soon? I know I'm spoiling you ;) Finally got my mojo back and it's nice to be writing again. This book was given to me by my mommabear. It's more her type of book, I'm funny when I see certain covers, no idea why just am. I think it's probably because I know they're my mums type of book if that makes any sense? This book is actually really good. It's got love, scandal, social hierarchy and for a while we're concerned the past is doomed to repeat itself. The story begins with a scene from the past, Ruth Hargreaves is a beautiful, young woman ready for her first party with the upper class. The master of the house takes a fancy to her and forces himself upon her. This however, is not the worst betrayal of Ruth's trust. Her father, Seth makes a deal with Lord Laughton in which he forced Ruth to be his mistress in exchange for a higher position within the Laughton household. There is more to it here, but I'll let you fi...
