The man Clemency loves belongs to someone else. She has to hide her true feelings - but when she ropes in an unsuspecting friend to help, wires start to get crossed.
For the first time in Ronan's life his charm has failed him in winning over the woman he wants. Loving her from afar appears to be his only option.
Belle seems to have the perfect boyfriend, but something isn't quite right. And now a long-buried secret is slowly rising to the surface. The truth has a funny way of revealing itself, and when it does St Carys will be a very different place indeed...
The start of the year always means a new Jill Mansell book
for me and this year we have Meet me at Beachcomber Bay which has got the
reading off to a great start for 2017.
When Clemency and Sam meet on a flight they have a great
connection and Clemency hopes that she will get to see him again but when she
gives him her number he throws it in the bin, turns out his married!
Three years later when her sister Bella comes to introduce
the new man in her life Clemency gets quite the shock.
This is definitely my favourite book by Jill Mansell, from
the minute I picked this book up I couldn’t put it down. There is a large group
of characters in this book all whom I grew to love quickly other than Bella who
is like a spoilt little princess. Considering the amount of characters there
were they were all really well developed and there was no confusion as to who was who
and each character brought something to the storyline.
The author threw a couple of surprises my way later in the
novel which I had no idea were about to be revealed which was great as I love a
book that has little unexpected twists and surprises.
Although this was a great light read which I have come to
know and love with this authors books this book felt like it had a little more
depth to the storyline thanks to a number of issues that were weaved into the
storyline and dealt with in an informative but delicate matter and yet the book
still had a wonderfully uplifting and heart-warming feel that brought a smile
to my face.
Top marks from me on this one, these are characters that I
will think about for sometime yet and it is a book I knw I will revisit in the future and I really hope Jill Mansell revisits these characters again too.
