Somewhere to review books I'm reading without giving away any spoilers!

Happy Book Bday to – Wishing Under a Starlit Skye by Lisa Hobman – a gorgeous community and great romance!

Everyone deserves a chance of happiness – right? All NEW from bestselling author Lisa Hobman

Glentorrin bakery owner, and lone parent, Caitlin Fraser, is single and finally ready to mingle.

With her daughter, Grace, about to become a teenager, and her friends all settling down, Caitlin decides she deserves a shot at happiness too.

Resisting the pull of dating apps, Caitlin embarks upon a series of disastrous singles events where she bumps into fellow villager, and astronomy buff, Archie Sutherland, who is nursing his own past secrets.

When Grace’s best friend’s father, handsome Lyle Budge, asks Caitlin to dinner, things progress quickly and she has a taste of what their future as a family could be, much to both their daughters delight! But when Archie makes a shocking discovery, and he turns to Caitlin for help, she soon discovers Lyle isn’t the sharing type, meaning prickly ultimatums loom for everyone.

Will wishing upon the stars over Glentorrin help Caitlin to figure out her way forward? Or is her hunt for romance like a once in a lifetime comet, easily missed in the blink of an eye?

My Review:

This is an absolutely gorgeous read
In which single Mum, Caitlin, feels the need
To explore the possibilities and take a chance
On, at last, finding her true love and romance.

Caitlin gives the thought of Apps a huge, "No!"
And decides to give face to face singles events a go.
That's where she meets up with Lyle and Archie, too,
Both Skye residents and single - will either be true?

Caitlin's daughter, Grace, and her best friend
Are hoping it'll be Lyle with whom she'll end.
He's her best friend's single Dad
But his reaction to news of Grace's Dad is really bad!

Archie lives in the same village as Cait
And into her bakery will often come and wait
As their friendship develops he has shocking news so
It is off to Caitlin for advice he'll go.

It is a fun, laugh out loud romance
With many folks to care for if you give it a chance
And one who I really learnt to despise
As his true self he showed and Cait realises.

Get ready for astronomy and star lit skies
With friendship, community and close family ties.
There are parties, get togethers and many a surprise
Before Caitlin acknowledges with whom her future lies.

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