A lovely, escapist, easy read set in beautiful Cornwall. Locations are beautifully described and draw the reader in from the start.There is a lovely cast of characters which are believable to the reader and a great sense of community.
A brilliant read, well researched, likeable characters and a twist at the end
A five star book I would recommend.
Thank you to Netgalley, Avon Books and Phillipa Ashley for letting me read this book in exchange for an honest review

Phillips Ashley has penned yet another perfectly charming visit to Cornwall, this time focusing on stem cell donation and archaeology. A delightful visit to a seaside town and two brothers who work a boatbuilding business for their mother forms the anchor of this novel about donor anonymity and the powerful changes their donation brings to the life of others when it successfully abates the underlying disease. A sweet romance blooms despite unfinished business between the brothers. A perfect summery read.

A lovely gentle escape to Cornwall read. the story follows Rose on a quest to find her stem cell donor. A lovely with a mix of sailing, history and love. i enjoyed this book and love a happy ending which this book has.

I read this book in the middle of a house sale and move, and it was just the tonic I needed. It was engaging and the characters had me hooked from the first paragraph. I have loved all of Phillipa's books and I was glad to be able to read this one too.

The story begins with Rose the main character in hospital waiting for a transplant. Her father died when she was a child and her mother chased her career so Rose was brought up by her Grand mother.
Rose moves to Cornwall to a job for the summer she has taken this job in a village where she believes her donor lives. She find a nice flat and makes a friend who works in the shop below her flat. She also meets 2 brothers Joey and Finn who own a boat yard the brothers are like chalk and cheese in every way.
She gets involved in all the activities this little cornish seaside village put on through out the summer months, while trying to find out who her donor.
She dates the one brother but her heart is attracted to the other.
There are many twists and turns to this book it keeps you gripped. I wanted to read as fast as I could to find out what happens in the end, at the same time I did not want the story to end.
Phillipa Ashley has done it again another wonderful book. I could write more but I don't want to give away the middle or the ending I just hope there will be a second book on this story line.
Thank you Phillipa for a wonderful read to take me away to Cornwall away from the pandemic that has been our bug bear for the last 16 months.

For Rose, every day is a gift. She narrowly survived a life-threatening illness and owes everything to her anonymous donor. Determined to thank him, Rose follows a trail of clues that lead her to the little Cornish fishing village of Falford.

My thoughts…
Quick sweet read. Since traveling is not an option right now, reading about Cornwall in a hot day beside the pool was almost good enough. 😆 The premise was sweet: about Ashley looking for the person who literally gave her a second chance to life. I do like the small town feel, meeting the residents and learning about their quirky lives. I enjoyed the boat theme, and how the story was not too predictable.

It’s always a joy to read a Philippa Ashley book and this one was set in Cornwall which adds to the pleasure of reading them. It was such a sweet read and I look forward to reading more. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

A lovely book that transports you to Cornwall when Rose goes looking for her bone marrow donor who saved her life and helped her continue her PHD. The description of scenery is lovely as is the Cornish Magick shop with piskies and potions! Rose meets the two brothers who run the boat building company with their Mum after the death of their Grandfather and she tries to find out which one is her donor!

A good summer read with a good story.

Absolutely loved this book. I had all different emotions going through me as I read it. I loved the setting of the different places. I could picture the Morvah brothers and Rose too.
Can't wait to go back to Falford again when the next book is out.
Phillipa Ashley's best book yet in my opinion.

Hurray!! Another wonderful read from Phillipa Ashley!! The perfect summer read, whether on holiday or not!
Rose Vernon has survived a potentially fatal illness with weeks in hospital supported by her dear grandmother, and saved by an anonymous donor. She is so grateful for her life, she begins a search for the donor which takes her to Cornwall and the Lizard.
What a gorgeous breath of fresh Cornish air this story is! Sailing, history, Cornish culture, friendships and more.
Really loved this book and cannot recommend highly enough for a perfect Cornish escape!
Thank you for the opportunity for an early read NetGalley

A lovely, easy read set in Cornwall, well written and with likeble characters (with a couple of exceptions).
Ideal as a light summer read.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

A wonderful summer read by Phillipa. Following Rose an archaeologist and survivor of a life threatening illness from Cambridge to Cornwall this book does have you guessing the plot in a light hearted way. It’s a great summer read as she enters into village life with a will she won’t she thread.

This like other books by the author is set in Cornwall and is described beautifully.
The characters are all interesting and there are several themes within the book (archaeology, boat building & stem cell donation). I would imagine a great deal of research went into these elements as it all seemed perfectly believable.
This was a thought provoking book that also had friendship and romance in it.
A perfect summer staycation read.
Thanks to netgalley and the publishers for this advance read.

Thank you NetGalley and AVON, a division of HarperCollins Publishers Ltd. for a copy of "An Endless Cornish Summer" in exchange for my honest review.

Phillipa Ashley has written a heartwarming story that we incredibly hard to put down. The story started with Rose Vernon in the Isolation Ward of the hospital as she awaited her stem cell transplant. As she had no close relatives she had been on the Global Register and there had been a match. Rose was raised by Granny Marge.

The story continues four years later after the death of Granny Marge who suffered a massive heart attack while working in her garden. She left behind a letter for Rose telling her find her stem cell donor and thank him. All Rose has to go on is that it was a male. Through the Donor registry she is able to write a thank you. From the postcard she receives she figures out where he might live. Rose is an archeologist and she is granted an application to work on a dig in Falford, Cornwall. She has narrowed it down to two men - brothers Finn and joey Morvah.

Rose makes friends with Oriel and rents a flat above her Cornish Magick shop. Rose can't decide which of the Morvah's is her donor but she knows that she's falling in love with one of them. As she immerses herself into the village life, she finds that she doesn't want to leave when her time on the dig is up.

This was a wonderful read and I am looking forward to see what Ms. Ashley writes next.

A really lovely read. Set in gorgeous Cornwall it follows Rose in her quest to discover who her donor was. There is romance, intrigue and friendship. The perfect holiday book!

A wonderful story set in a beautiful location. Philippa Ashley writes such heartwarming stories with engaging characters and the scenic backdrop of Cornwall just adds to the overall ambience.
Rose’s story is really emotional and I loved how we followed her journey. The inclusion of the boat building and myths and legends of the area were fascinating and when added to the wonderful mix of characters made this is a brilliant read.

This was my first read by Philippa Ashley and now I'm wondering why I've not discovered her books before.

This was the ultimate summer read, I don't actually have a bad word to say about it. The story was beautifully written, you could tell it had been so well researched- the information about the cornish folk lores were so interesting, they made me want to go and visit straight away. The characters were so likeable, loved the way they all fitted together and the little twist at the end was fabulous.

It really was the perfect book to read on a warm summers day and I'm now off to find more of Philippa's books.

I'd add an extra half star if possible...
A perfect holiday read with the additional pull of a medical drama, archaeologist digs, Cornish scenery and romantic twists. The description of Nige evokes laughter and the regatta draws you in and makes you want to load the car with your suitcases stuffed with shorts, Quba jackets, wellies and flip flops and drive straight to the coast.
The characters are honestly described with sufficient imperfections to make them plausible and likeable and the friendships that build around the small boatyard leave you with a smile on your face.
Thank you NetGalley for a very enjoyable escape during isolation.

Archeology professor Rose goes to a seaside village in Cornwall searching for the bone marrow donor who saved her life. After extensive research, she's narrowed down the possibilities to two brothers, Finn and Joey, who work in their mom's shipbuilding business. While Joey is a charmer, she falls for Finn, and he seems to feel the same way. But will the truth about her identity change things between them?

This a quiet story, a sweet romance that will take you away to a sleepy little town where you can sit on the dock with your feet in the water while the sunshine warms your shoulders.

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.

All the warm and fuzzy feels. This is a perfect sunny day with a cool glass of lemonade read.
Rose has has a rough go of it with a disease that required a bone marrow transplant and once she recovers, she follows the clues to try to find her donor to thank him or her. One day she gets an anonymous response to her letter, she goes in search of the writer to thank them in person for saving her life, which take her to the quaint little town of Cornwall. Rose gets drawn into life in this little town, renting an apartment over the local magic store and joining in the regatta and developing relationships with 2 very hot brothers-one of which could very well be her donor.
I really liked how well the characters were developed and the depths of the research into the archaeology was quite fascinating. There was also lots of research done into the boating lifestyle and for her disease.
This was my first book by this author but it won’t be my last. A great escape to my fav part of the world.
Thanks to Avon Books and Netgalley for this Arc in exchange for my review.
