This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free from the Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. Thank you to BATC for my copy of this book.

This was a very sweet cute romance story. I did find some of the characters' choices were quite different to what I would do. She has been through the mill with her husband and her friend having an affair. I liked Thea, she is funny and real. You see the real emotions and feelings about the affair and how she moves on from it. She is smart and quick-witted. I think we would be quite good friends I'd love to go for a coffee with her.

Edward is a grump. Plain and simple he doesn't really like people, especially women. As the book progresses we see why Edward is the way he is. He has put up a lot of walls but thankfully Thea manages to knock them down.

The setting is fantastic. It's absolutely beautiful. When the pandemic is over I am hoping to visit more places in Scotland. There are so many beautiful parts that I have heard or read about that I really want to see.

This was a good debut story and I look forward to seeing what comes next from Jackie.
