Beautiful, heartwarming read – An Island in the Sun by Kate Frost

My Review:

What a gorgeous location and beautiful read
Just what this chilly day I really did need!
A story of family and friendship that are broken
With the past needing facing and feelings re-woken.

Tabitha is a escaping from sadness and loss
Taking time to heal whilst still being her own boss.
She's a songwriter who travels as house and dog sitter
The changes of location and folk really suit her.

On Madeira she's looking after two dogs and a cat
In a beautiful, luxurious home, with its own pool and all that!
She has time to work but also maybe the chance at last
To help heal a relationship broken in the past.

New friends, unexpected arrivals and reconnecting, too,
A story with so much going on all the way through.
With drama, healing and even a chance
For a renewed or even a new romance!

She's not the only one at a crossroad in her life
As others are facing their own potential strife.
I thoroughly enjoyed this right from the start
A beautiful setting and story to warm your heart.

Synopsis:

Running away is what Tabitha Callahan does best until saying goodbye becomes too hard…

When successful songwriter Tabitha Callahan swaps a summer of sadness for pet sitting around the world, she intends to use the time to heal her broken heart.

Tabitha can’t believe her luck when she picks up a housesit on the rugged and beautiful Portuguese island of Madeira.

The villa is luxurious, the views breath-taking and her charges, a gorgeous but aloof cat and two cute and friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, are perfect companions while she works on some new material and attempts to reconcile her past.

However, her peace is shattered when an unexpected house guest puts paid to her much-needed time alone, forcing her to confront not only her feelings but what she actually wants from life.

New friends and old dominate her time on the island, along with deep-rooted regret and unspoken sorrow.

Will a year of running away be enough to put the past to rest and allow someone new to inch into her heart?
