Padma and Wallace's relationship seems to be fine, until he gives he ran ultimatum.
Padma's sister thinks everything is fine with her family, until it isn't.
And these crisis points are how Padma and her 15 year old niece find themselves in a run-down house on the Kent coast for the summer holidays.
Can everyone sort themselves out?
Fantastic, with characters you care about.
This was a good read. I don't usually read contemporary, but I liked the characters and their interactions with one another. It was decently written, but the ebook had some odd formatting, leaving random spaces in the middle of sentences. Also, some words are put together that shouldn't be, like "thirtynine". These are small editing errors, but they took away from the reading experience.
Overall, I'd rate this 3 stars for the engaging and believable characters. The plot was predictable and the editing seemed to be lacking, so I can't rate it higher.
Thank you to Netgalley for an ARC.
A lot interesting ideas and issues explored in this book but it far too much like a romance and happy go lucky I hate to say chick lit novel. The author has made a good effort trying to make it deeper but I found it predictable and boring. There really isn't a great character journey beyond the usual plot lines and anything that would have given it more merit isn't explored enough to level into a great book. Really not have enjoyed this one but it's not what description or the cover suggests it to be. Am sure it will be popular with certain readers but for me there is no wit, smarts or real meaning all very sweet and obvious plot developments...not for me
Absolutely brilliant, loved it. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me an advance copy, I will definitely be recommending.
I enjoyed the relationship dynamics that are explored in this book. It shows building relationships and also questioning current relationships, many relatable ideas are explored for me.
