For Georgia Toffolo's debut fiction read, I did enjoy this. I think it was quite a sweet, enjoyable read and I'd love to see more from this author.
Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an Advanced Readers Copy in exchange for an honest review.
Join Victoria and Oliver as they meet in Chelsea. Both carrying around a suitcase of guilt for very different reasons. Whilst nursing a whiskey in the pub next to his new store, Oliver, sees Victoria (the bar manager) for the first time. He's had a bad day but here is something about her that pulls Oliver to her. As last orders are called he proposes to her, which, of course, she laughs off.
The next day, they bump into each other, quite literally, sending Victoria's box of fabric and ribbon scattering across the pavement. Checking that she is OK, they strike up a conversation and chat about the new store. Which Oliver neglects to mention he is the owners son and will be running it. They take a trip inside, with Victoria discovering the haberdashery dept. However, Oliver is rumbled by a workman who says hello to him. Furious Victoria leaves.
As Oliver attempts to make it up to her, she goes to see him at the store and after a Frank exchange they come to an unlikely agreement. He will help the local businesses and she will pretend to be his fiancee for one night only.
What follows is a journey through attraction, overcoming guilt and learning how to chase dreams.
Thanks Netgalley and the Publisher. Not sure what to write in my review, I actually liked this book but have no idea why. I shall let others make their own decision.
Meet Me in London is the perfect escape that you will not be able to put down and likely will read in just one sitting. The story sweeps you away with it's lovely, flow and it's strong and relatable characters. It's a book to read curled up in front of the fire or in the bath, as it's like one big warm hug. Really nice and easy read.
Spent the morning getting completely lost in this ARC from @millsandboonuk
I do like @georgiatoffolo and I had no idea that I was going to love this book as much as I have. I really haven’t wanted to put this down. I cannot say anything negative about this one. A read which I highly recommend and have been completely pulled into. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
