My Review:

This is a delightful, contemporary romance 
Where unexpected changes give a new chance.
When her boyfriend of six years makes a dinner date
Iris is expecting a proposal, not a total change of fate!

He's got a new job in Amsterdam
And he says they're going there as fast as they can.
No discussion, no choices, just pack up and go
She's not so sure and it all has her feeling low.

Their new home is lovely, and the city a dream
She feels inspired to create art again it would seem.
With new friends, new places and more fun, too
She loves it all, maybe her dreams will come true?

But fate has more surprises in store
As Will no longer seems his job to adore.
Should she follow Will or take a chance
On the possibilities in Amsterdam for new romance?

This is a story of being brave and starting anew
Of making the most of opportunities in life for you
Sometimes what seems like a difficult choice at the start
Can lead to great happiness if you follow your heart.

For my complementary copy of this book, I say thank you,
I throughly enjoyed reading it and this is my honest review.
