Sunny Days and Sea Breezes | Carole Matthews

When time out becomes the time of your life. THE BRAND NEW BOOK FROM BESTSELLER CAROLE MATTHEWS *** Jodie Jackson is all at sea, in every sense. On a ferry bound for the Isle of Wight, she's leaving her London life, her career, and her husband behind. She'd like a chance to turn back the clocks, but she'll settle for some peace and quiet on her brother Bill's beautifully renovated houseboat: Summer Days. But from the moment Jodie steps aboard her new home, it's clear she'll struggle to keep herself to herself. If it isn't Marilyn, who does for Bill and is under strict instructions to look after Jodie, then it's Ned, the noisy sculptor on the next-door houseboat. Ned's wood carving is hard on the ears, but it's made up for by the fact that he's rather easy on the eyes. Bustled out of the boat by Marilyn and encouraged to explore with Ned, Jodie soon delights in her newfound freedom. But out of mind isn't out of sight, and when her old life comes knocking Jodie is forced to face reality. Will she answer the call or choose a life filled with Summer Days and Sea Breezes? Why do readers love Carole Matthews? 'Fun, fantastic and brimming with Matthews magic' MILLY JOHNSON 'You can't do better than to sink into Happiness for Beginners' KATIE FFORDE 'An irresistibly warm-hearted story' TRISHA ASHLEY 'Warm, witty and hopeful - I was charmed' SARAH MORGAN 'The queen of funny, feel good fiction' MIKE GAYLE

I devoured this in three sittings. I loved everything about this book. The writing is simple yet warm and captivating. The characters are addictive, the setting is idyllic and you get swept away in the story-literally. The chapters weren't too long which sometimes drags out a storyline but this was perfect. A great summer read which fans of rom-coms and modern fiction will love. ❤️ 🏖

It helps when the book you are reading is warm and captivating. I can see the page numbers nearing the end and I don‘t want it too. ❤️📚

Nearly an hour of reading is a great achievement for me 👍🏻 This book (ARC) is such a delight to read. It doesn‘t feel like I‘m reading but watching a movie. Easy, light and fluffy, got to love Carole Matthews 💓

Hope everyone is having a good day ❤️

Had to read this twice..very true words 💓
Loving the ease of story telling by Carole Matthew...her use of vocabulary makes images so easily appear in my head as I‘m reading. Think it may be another late reading session 👀
