Katie Fforde is an author I turn to
when I am in need of romantic escapism. I have been reading her novels since
1995 when she was first published, so can safely call myself a long time fan of
her writing.
Our heroine Caro has taken a job in Scotland
as an elderly gentleman’s companion, as she feels in need of a change from
living on her barge in London whilst her daughter is away travelling. So,
begins a magical and romantic summer that takes her from London to Scotland and
back plus trips to the South of France. The latter in search of a classic lost
perfume with plenty of love and romance in the mix.
Another 4* read from an author that
knows how to lift a reader’s spirits, definitely this reader anyway. The
storyline may be a somewhat cute and unlikely scenario but honestly is this not
what we want from this author? A feel good read that I am sure her many fans will
enjoy, just don’t read if you are looking for something deep and meaningful.
