It feels like ages since I last read a Maxine Morrey rom-com, but falling into the pages of this book really did feel like coming home. There was just such a comforting, cosy feel to this story, and even when I wasn't reading, my heart was with Hollie in Wishington Bay.

I'll admit the basic concept is one that has been done before - girl inherits property from relation in different location to where she lives, and then has to decide what to do with it. However its all the other bits of the book that make it so special.

The handsome Australian doctor next door and his adorable sausage dog, Bryan who has an emotional back story of his own. There is Holly's brother and his pregnant wife, who are so excited for the baby, but also really concerned about Holly. And there is the Bay itself which is gorgeous sounding, and if its anything like the cover, probably stunning to live in too.

I just really enjoyed the writing in this story, the descriptions and dialogue. It doesn't have the largest amount of characters, but that just adds to its charm as the ones that are featured you get to know so much better. Although not alive Gigi was also a big presence in the book, and I really felt I got to know Hollie's grandmother quite well. It was obvious she had a great sense of humour.

As much as I was enjoying the book there were moments where I just wanted to lock Hollie and Gabe in a room together and not let them out until they had realised the obvious!

Coming Home to Wishington Bay is a truly lovely story that I thoroughly enjoyed. I really hope this isn't the last we see of this location or characters.

Thank you to Netgalley and HQ Digital for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
