Forever At Conwenna Cove is the next instalment of The Conwenna Cove series from Darcie Boleyn and it does nothing but justice for the rest of the series.



Following the owner of the diner, Zoe, the story tells of previous heartbreak and trauma tainting life in the present. Death is hard to come to terms with but when it's someone so close to you the after effects are not only long lasting but change your mindset on several other aspects of life.



Trying to keep in touch with her dog owning past, Zoe volunteers at the greyhound sanctuary and takes the dogs out for walks. Also aiding the greyhounds is Nate, a surfer, who organises a surfing event to raise funds for the charity before heading out of town. 



The classic get the boy before he leaves town never gets old and Darcie Boleyn writes the classic theme in such a way that it is new, fresh and completely magnetic. The past haunts Zoe but when friends accidentally let it slip that Nate is skipping town to travel she decides to act before it's too late.



I loved the scenery with Forever At Conwenna Cove, although I got used to the background when reading the previous Summer At Conwenna Cove. But if you haven't read the previous stories you will still thoroughly enjoy the book as no background knowledge is really needed. 



The story pans out at a good pace with enough detail to really get into the characters' heads. There isn't much fluff and the combination of greyhounds and surfing is not only unique but genius. I would highly recommend Forever At Conwenna Cove to anyone who loves reading Daisy James

A pleasant, easy read, where nothing out of the ordinary happens, and there's no real angst even though the main characters think they have issues standing in their way, yet they get together easily enough. I think Zoe and Nate were a bit too good to be true. Lovely setting. I think the epilogue could have been better (if indeed one was even needed) - it was too predictable.

With thanks to NetGalley and the author and publisher for an ARC in an exchange for an honest review.

Thanks to Canelo and NetGalley for a copy of this book. An excellent light read. A romantic tale told in a lovely setting. The storyline is interesting and the book has many interesting characters whose stories are woven into that of the main heroine and hero. Recommend this book to any lover of this genre who wants to sit down and have a relaxing read for a few hours.

Zoe bought the diner and moved to the cove to escape her past. Nate is leaving the cove to go off and travel. They have both lived there for years, but never really got to know each other, and once they do there is chemistry they can't ignore. 
Both are character who are likeable and you want a happy ending for them.

It is nice that characters from the previous books are included in the story line too.

I love Darcie Boleyn's books and really enjoy the predictability of the romantic plots and the happy endings. She writes the kind of books that leave you fuzzy inside and feel like a hopeless romantic. The kind of book that cheers you up on a dreary day, or an easy read when you're lazing by the hotel pool. I've read a handful, and as I've read two others in the Conwenna Cove series I thought it would be nice to read this one. Unfortunately, I found 'Forever at Conwenna Cove' to be a carbon copy of the previous two books. Same plot, two hopeless romantics that have given up hope, with an obstacle or two in their way, eventually get together and live happily ever after. The characters are all the same as the previous books (which can get a little confusing, as having already read the first-person accounts from the other characters, it's confusing to read them as background characters and remember how they fit in), and with a little place like Conwenna Cove, not much changes. I had hope that there would be some vast differences in this book, as I also found the second book was far too similar to the first; unfortunately not. It feels like the same book has been written three times over with only the character names and life stories switched out. As much as I love Darcie's writing style, I'm already over this series now.

This book was well written and the characters well described; the parts about the actual place made you want to visit it yourself.. Although it began with a tragedy, this was dealt with sympathetically, and endeared the people involved, to you.  Even the young people in the book were quite nice and the animals funny and with great personalities.  I loved the ending and really enjoyed the story.  I've found a new author I love, and will buy more of her books..
