Escape To Seahaven Bay
The heartwarming
new novel from the author of the million-copy bestselling Cockleberry
Bay series
Seahaven Bay has always been a place
where the sparkling tides bring laughter, love and a lot of fun. But when Rita
Jory’s beloved husband Archie dies in a tragic accident, she’s left alone on
their failing Cornish farm with nothing but her grieving heart, a mountain of
debt and some very badly behaved goats. Faced with selling the home she loves
or finding a way to make it pay, Rita has a moment of desperate inspiration.
She decides to transform her beloved Seahaven Farm into a place where broken
souls can heal by the sea.
With help from her sharp-tongued
mother-in-law, loyal best friend, daughter and new friends, the rundown farm
soon blossoms into a haven of healing, creativity and community. Rita dares to
believe her future might still shimmer with possibility – and even admits her
growing attraction to Jago, the gorgeous neighbouring farmer with whom the
Jorys had a decades-long feud.
But just as Rita begins to find peace,
long-buried secrets about Archie’s past begin to surface, forcing her to
question everything she believed about the life they built together.
Rita must discover the truth and
decide if she’s ready to open her heart again – to love, to hope, and to the
possibility that even after loss, life can still be full of surprises.
A tender,
uplifting and hilarious tale of resilience, friendship and finding light in the
darkest moments, perfect for fans of Jill Mansell, Jojo Moyes and Amanda
Prowse.

What did I think?
Now I haven't read a Nicola May book for some time - in fact I'm not sure I finished the last series (hides in shame) But this book is the start if a brand new series so thought it was the right place to dive back in.
I have to say this was a joy to read - a perfect tonic for me. Loved the cast of characters - what a bunch of strong females who made me smile throughout the story. Love a setting by the sea - I will be forever grateful to have the coast on my doorstep and just seeing the sea makes me feel better - it is true what they say about vitamin sea.
A touch of mystery and intrigue just to spice things up a wee bit.
But the best part for me is that (fingers crossed) we don't have to wait too long for book 2. I am fully invested in these ladies and the farm and need to know what happens next.
