Slightly difficult to review as I hadnt read any of the previous books in the series, and felt quite lost trying to work out the back stories. That apart I found it a nice easy read with interesting characters, the main ones being the four friends who have stuck together through thick and thin.
Thanks to NetGalley for a review copy.

5 stars

Last in the series and Lilys HEA.

Lily is organising Victoria's wedding. She's a restauranter and was a friend to the owner of the local vineyard. On Blake's death he leaves everything to his estranged son Henry. Henry is keen to sell and get back to his life as a tech entrepenuer. All the people involved in the horrible crash meet up for Victoria's wedding and at last Henry gets closure.

Good book to read

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This is the fourth book in the series and I think that this was a great conclusion to it. You can also read them as standalone books as each character has their own love story. I loved how you could feel the friendship between the girls. However I think that it was getting a bit predictable where all 4 women in the friendship got engaged one after the other.

Loved this book, it was like being wrapped in a cosy blanket. All the characters were interesting but Lily was definitely my favourite as she prepares to make Victorias wedding the best it can be. There is so much to like here, four friends recovering from an accident but staying close to each other over the years. Henry gradually learning to live with the past and look to the future. Beautifully descriptive writing and the ending was perfect

Lovely easy to read book with a feel good factor. Enjoyed it (and have some of the previous ones). One for the beach or curled up on a Sunday afternoon.

A quick easy read, after reading the other three books n this series it was nice to finally get a happy ending for Lily, and the insight and catch up on the lives of the other girls at the end was a nice touch

A lovely story but slow to get going. A story of friends whose lives changed due to an accident .The description of the wine estate and the restaurant were lovely . Their friendships were strong and the wedding of one pulled them all together and helped one of their love interests sort out his relationship with his dead father and the vineyard .. The more you read the more you wanted to know . A perfect ending . Loved it.

Lily loves living in Hawke’s Cove, and planning her best friend’s wedding at the Hawkesbury estate is the icing on the cake. But when the estate’s owner dies, and his son cancels the wedding, Lily must face Henry Hawkesbury – a man she hasn’t seen since that fateful night ten years ago…

Henry wants nothing more than to return to Hawke’s Cove, sell his estranged late father’s estate and leave. He certainly does not want to host a wedding, or face Lily, who gets on with everyone – except him!

But when Henry needs Lily’s help, she will only provide it if the wedding can go ahead. Working together means both must face their pasts, and, in doing so embrace their future. But can two people afraid of love acknowledge what they have always wanted…?

A wonderful and incredibly rich novel . . . I wasn't able to put it down till I reached the end. I was absolutely captivated by the atmosphere, and the characters...

I have read all this series and have really enjoyed how each book tells the story of one friend but are all mixed in together.
I was looking forward to this being the last one in the series and it didn't disapoint. It was a really touching last book and wrapped up the series perfectly, I can't wait to see what Georgia writes next

If Chick Lits is your thing, then this is the book for you!

After being estranged from his father for 10 years, Henry is in charge of his dads estate in Devon following his death.

Henry hates being back in Devon, and shuts everything down and Lily persuade him to let her friends have their wedding there, or will it all go to ruin.

Read on, to find the highs and lows of Lily and Henry.

This book is part of a series, I hadn’t read of any them and didn’t feel like I missed any gaps in the story but as I enjoyed this book for the perfect escapism I will go back and read them now!

Another lovely read by Georgia Toffolo. It's an excellent end to the series and ties up all loose ends nicely.

I mentioned earlier that I don't really read romance very often and while love is very much at the heart of the novel, there's also so much depth to the story. The characters tackle grief, guilt and self-doubt which made me sympathise with them. Henry was a great character and I enjoyed his interactions with Lily.

The main focus of this series, other than romance, is the female friendship of the women in the group. This was the case again in this book and it's something I always enjoy reading about. The county of Devon also plays a big part in the series and as with the other books, the setting is beautifully described.

I loved the epilogue set ten years later which gives the reader an insight into the future of all the characters.

Utterly predictable but also utterly charming.

Perfect read for pure escapism. I liked the writing, the characters were full of life, and a good storyline. I read this as a stand alone and will look forward to reading the rest in the series. If you are looking for an easy light read this is for you.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for an Arc in exchange for an honest opinion

The final book in this series by Toff and i have been lucky enough to read them all.

This one is about Lily, who lives at home in Hawkes Cove and is arranging the wedding of one of her best friends. One of the quad who have been friends for 20 years.

She works at a huge estate, but when the owner Blake dies, his son Henry comes back and shuts the estate down and cancelled her friends wedding.

Lily isnt about to let that stand and so goes out of her way to not only win Henry over, but to make sure the wedding takes place.

A lovely ending, and i really loved the epilogue to see where they all ended up. Really nice way to finish the series.

A wonderful end to this series of books. Lily is the only one of the four friends who has stayed in their hometown and set up her own business. Her three friends are all returning with their partners for the wedding of Victoria who Lily is single-handedly doing all the weeding planning. Unfortunately Lily is a perfectionist and when things don’t go her way she begins to unravel. A friend from her past ends up being her knight in shining armour in more ways than one. I have loved all the characters in each of the four books and hope that Toff writes many more books

I really enjoyed this book; it's an easy, perhaps even slightly trashy, read in the beat way. The characters are likeable and you very quickly become 'friends' with them. The story is interesting and well layered; I'd not read the previous 4 stories in teh series but this novel stands alone by itself.

It's a story that indulges the reader with description- of its idyllic location and the food consumed within it! The book also includes an epilogue that gives you the story 10 years later - perfect as I wasn't ready to say goodbye to the characters yet.

This is an enjoyable read, perfect for a bit of escapism!!

Totally predictable and totally wonderful escapism! Just what I was after for a rainy afternoon! The characters are great and it’s sweet story that I demolished in one sitting!

Wow another amazing story of one of the group of girls! What I really love about Toffs stories are that they capture you right from the beginning. Some stories take a while to get interesting and grip you but that’s not been the case in any of her three books. This one tells the tale of Lilly and it’s like a modern day fairytale. I read it in just a couple of days

I suppose I shouldn’t really have requested this book as it sadly was everything I expected. Very uninteresting and not even well written, sorry I just can’t find anything good to say.
