Celebrating the release of Rosie Green’s A Winter Wedding at the Little Duck Pond Cafe, I am delighted to share my review…

The blurb:

With Zak and Ellie’s wedding day approaching, there’s high excitement in the pretty village of Sunnybrook, especially among the Little Duck Pond Café crew. Ellie is over the moon with her romantic surprise wedding gift from Zak, and Madison is promising to organise a hen party to remember. Everyone has high hopes for a magical Christmas Eve wedding celebration at gorgeous Brambleberry Manor. (Even Maisie-Moo has a sparkling new outfit.)

But sometimes, even the best-laid plans can go wrong. And with the journey to the altar turning out to be rockier than expected, it’s going to take nothing short of a Christmas miracle to ensure a happy ending …

Genre: Contemporary Romance / Romantic Comedy / novella

My review:

This was a lovely catch up with the inhabitants of Sunny Brook and all at the Little Duck Pond cafe. The story was told from the perspectives of Ellie, Jaz and Fen, key characters from previous books, and it was great to get their insight into the forthcoming event, as well as to see how their own relationships had developed. Fen remains one of my favourite characters.

After the lead up to this story, I would have liked a little bit more about the actual wedding itself, and to have shared in more of the warmth of Zak and Ellie’s relationship. I really like them as a couple and just felt, for me, the lovely Zak was a bit absent, when he should have been one of the stars of the show. (Can you tell I’ve got a soft spot for him?)

Overall, it’s a fab series, with characters who will become your friends, and a setting you will want to move into.

About the author:

Rosie Green has been scribbling stories ever since she was little. Back then they were rip-roaring adventure tales with a young heroine in perilous danger of falling off a cliff or being tied up by ‘the baddies’. Thankfully, Rosie has moved on somewhat, and now much prefers to write romantic comedies that melt your heart and make you smile, with really not much perilous danger involved at all, unless you count the heroine losing her heart in love.

Review of Rosie Green’s Confetti at the Little Duck Pond Cafe

Blog Tour Review, Book Review, , , , , , ,

Today, I am delighted to be taking part in the blog tour for Rosie Green’s Confetti at the Little Duck Pond Cafe.

The blurb:

Wedding fever is in the air in the village of Sunnybrook. With Ellie and Zak’s Big Day on the horizon, the sun is shining brightly on the Little Duck Pond Cafe community. But when dark clouds begin to roll in from more than one direction, several close relationships look to be under threat. Will the wedding of the year actually take place at all?

Genre: Contemporary Romance / Romantic Comedy / novella

My review:

I can’t believe Rosie Green and her Little Duck Pond series are on to novella number six, already! I must confess to missing a couple (totally my fault for not getting through my tbr pile fast enough) but it didn’t hamper my enjoyment of Confetti at the Little Duck Pond Cafe. While there are, by this book, many characters inhabiting Ellie’s world in Sunnybrook, enough information is given about each to gauge their pertinence in previous novellas.

This time around, Rosie Green gives us laughter, and mayhem, with a cow and a puppy causing all sorts of commotion, as well as tackling some more delicate and thought provoking issues. It was great to revisit the regulars and to see Ellie and Zak interacting and learning to work together as they attempted to enter the next phase of their relationship.

Confetti at the Little Duck Pond Cafe was a novella with a big heart; making for another entertaining read, with loveable characters in an idyllic setting, that will leave you with a smile and wanting to revisit Sunnybrook again soon.

Buy the book.
