Description
PART FOUR of a serialised novel - a charming and romantic story about living the simple life and the joy of animals.
With Emma’s past threatening to ruin her life in quiet Crickleford, she’s running out of options. If people – especially Matt, her reporter friend – find out her secret, it might force her to leave the place she’s come to think of as home.
When flooding strikes the town while Emma is looking after an elderly couple’s dog, she has to take her biggest risk yet – but could this be the one that blows her cover for good? And if it does, can Crickleford – and Matt – ever accept Emma for who she truly is?
Note: this is part four of a four-part serialised novel.

Well this is the final part of the series and boy was it good! As with every part I was excited to start reading and finding out what was going to happen next for Emma, as part 3 was left at a crucial moment. This time I was especially excited as we find out if her cover is blown and find out if she will get her happy ever after or not.
Such an easy to read book/series one that you cant put down and need to keep reading to find out what happens next.
Im gutted this was the final part as I really had grew fond of these characters, the pets and the wee village itself. I really will miss it. It just captures your heart and makes you feel happy reading it.
A real joy!
Review shall be on my blog (thecosiestcorner.blogspot.com) on the 16th of Feb.
As always I was so excited to read another part of The Pets at Primrose Cottage - especially this one as it is the last! The series has been so exciting and I've been really looking forward to how it all ended! The cover as usual, draws you in immediately. I adore the ombre colours of the setting sun and the beautiful flowers either side looks so pretty!
I am so, so happy with how this ended. It was the perfect ending and was of course another part of the series that was jam-packed with events and I couldn't put it down! I really found myself enjoying part four. Like the others I was excited to read about what was going to happen next in Emma's life and part three was left with a huge cliffhanger that I was dying to read what happened!
I was really hoping that Emma get a happy ending, as we read in the other parts that she hadn't had the best life so when things still kept going wrong for Emma I was really feeling for her. However, part four (for me personally) was the best part yet as it was so gripping and exciting! Will Emma's cover be blown or will she get the peaceful life she's been wishing for? You'll need to read it to find out! All the characters of this novel are wonderful and the village where it's set sounded utterly charming.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that is sad that this series is over, as it was so enjoyable and such an easy read. Not only that but it had such a feel-good factor about it. If, like me, you're gutted it's over too then I would highly recommend Sheila Norton's other novel The Vets at Hope Green (you can read my review here) as Sheila's writing is addictive! Thank you to Netgalley and to the publisher for a chance to read this novel, which I have reviewed honestly.
Thank you to Netgalley, the author and the publisher, Ebury Publishing, for this review copy given in exchange for an honest review.
This is Part 4 in the serialisation of Pets at Primrose Cottage. There are four ‘novella’ parts to the book, Pets at Primrose Cottage, with the full length story coming out as one book later in March 2018. You do need to have read the other 3 parts of the story first to understand the story.
I have been following this series all the way through and was excited to finally reach the final part, the tag line being No Place Like Home. There certainly is no place like home for Emma, and we return to the village of Cricklewood to revisit Emma and her pet-sitting business. The story picks up from Part 3 and Emma’s past is on the verge of being discovered, and she’s beginning to wonder whether she will need to leave Cricklewood forever.
Part 3 was left on such a cliff hanger it was great to finally get to find out if Emma’s past is finally going to be revealed. I love Emma’s character and I love the little tales of the exploits of the pets she is looking after. The budgie in this story was absolute class and I would really love to own a budgie like this, although it may have to be hidden away when visitors come! We also get to find out whether Emma’s on/off relationship with Matt will ever come of anything – and don’t think I’m going to tell you, you need to read the book to find out!
Read it in 4 parts or as one whole book it doesn’t really matter. Either way you will realise it’s a wonderfully written series with plenty of love and laughter – oh, and pets! Such a shame the series has ended, but what a fabulous way to end!
I have been hooked to these books every part has been an amazing read they just flow. Loved the storyline the story just got better and better as the story has gone along. Enjoyed the characters and didn't guess what was going to happen to happen. A feel good read didn't want the book to end.
I've read this serialised novel from beginning to end now, and I have to say I'm sad it's over. Sheila Norton has a way with words and an ease of writing that really shows. Not only does she create the perfect village, but everyone in the community is accurately portrayed. So much so that it's not like this is a book at all- it's like it is real life. If you have never read anything my her, I'd really suggest that you try this, but also The Vet's at Hope Green. I also had the pleasure of reading and reviewing the ARC of The Vet's at Hope Green. Everything I have read by her so far is very relaxing reading with a quick pace and lots of action. And of course, cute animals and picturesque villages.
Huge thanks to Sheila Norton and Ebury Publishing for my ARCs in exchange for an honest and voluntary review. (less)
I read this serialised book all in one go in the end and I really enjoyed this light hearted read. Is great for fans of Cathy Woodman and Cathy Bramley. I liked following Emma's story and seeing all of the revaluations around her past and how she overcame them in the end.
This is the final instalment in the four part story and it didn’t disappoint.
Emma is still living in Crickleford and running her pet sitting business, she has also discovered she has feelings for Matt. Unknown to Emma her cover is about to be blown as reporters have traced her location and we finally find out what she is running from.
An easy enjoyable read which ties all four instalments together.
I really enjoyed the first three instalments of Pets at Primrose Cottage and the fourth part was just the icing on the cake.
In the final part, it appears that Emma’s secret past is catching up with her and she’s running out of options. There’s an emergency in the village of Crickleford and Emma takes a risk to help her fellow villages but this could be the very thing that blows her cover. Can she stay and ride it out or will she have to leave and leave Matt behind too?
This is a lovely tale that will draw you in and keep you turning the page to the end.
Thank you to NetGalley, Penguin Random House UK Ebury Publishing and the author for the chance to review.
Having enjoyed the first three instalments, I was delighted to read the ending to this series and it proved to be just perfect!
Emma is still living in fear of her past catching up with her despite having secreted herself away in the town of Crickleford and setting up a very successful business. What happens next is a complete surprise, well-written, perfectly plotted and a sheer delight to read. What a fitting end to a fabulous series!
I love the pace of this author's writing; there is always something happening and something else on the horizon which keep up the pace making for a very interesting read. If you haven't come across Sheila Norton's books before, I would heartily recommend these as a fine uplifting story is her trademark and you are always left with a smile and a piece of her characters' happiness.
My thanks to publishers Ebury Digital for approving my request via NetGalley. This is my honest, original and unbiased review.
