Such a sweet book. The perfect summer read with enough twists and turns to keep you engaged and some good character development. Well paced and overall very enjoyable

I enjoyed this book, a fun, light hearted easy read, ideal for holidays.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for letting me read this book in exchange for a review. I will be putting this on Amazon too.

The cover of this book is so warm and inviting that you think you're in for a good read.
The inside is not disappointing. The story was warm and cute.
Very much the kind of book you can pick up by the pool.

This was an enlightened read but at the end of the day i was a bit bored. The female MC lacked substance and i found myself skimming.

I loved the writing in this book but I was not super sold on the romance in here. It was often cringey and just not believable enough for me to want to keep reading. I nearly put this down and DNF'ed several times. unfortunately, it's not one that I'll be adding to my physical shelf

Really enjoyed this book - feel like there are a lot of tips that many of us can use.
Pleasant story with a romance to enjoy with nice plausible characters .

I loved this book a lot! So light hearted and fun. Definitely makes a good beach read. Laura delivers again with her great feel good books!

I love the chemistry between Patrick and Annie and the fact that no character was ‘perfect’ and that they all had their flaws. The plot wasn’t all smooth sailing and happy which was great to see because it really mirrored the fact that life isn’t all rainbows. It was nice to read something realistic in terms of life doesn’t always go the way you want or expect it to.

This book follows a theme of love and loss and learning to be yourself again. There was a good amount of funny in the book and I really just want to give Annie a big hug. The overall vibe of the book makes it a perfect summer read. I also like the fact that it is not a ‘go, fall in love, come home and live happily ever after ‘ book and that more happens after the return and that it’s not all smooth sailing, giving the book more depth, as well as characters.

This was an okay book for me. I thought the beginning situation was drawn out and almost quit reading it 30% in. I wanted less "woe is me" from Annie, which pushed the love story from happening sooner or made it swoony.

Thank you NetGalley for this #gifted copy to review. It was just the book I needed, so easy to read and I even listened to some parts on Scribd which I loved, made even better narrated by Carrie Hope Fletcher.
Chosen for my never ending NetGalley choice where the theme was new beginnings, which really fit perfectly when Annie was left standing at the alter.
Was it predictable, yes… Did that take away any enjoyment, absolutely no way.
I loved Our Stop and The Love Square also by this author so I think it’s safe to say she’s becoming an auto buy author for me.
Light hearted, romantic, humorous and fun this book was great.

I loved this book. It was very well written. Great characters and very easy to picture I enjoyed the story too.
Thank you to netgalley and the publishers and the author for the opportunity to read this book for my honest opinion

This was a fun read! Nothing too serious, something I would recommend for laying around by the pool/on the beach


I received an advance copy. All thoughts are my own.

I love when books hit the sweet spot of a fun “summery” read but with enough emotional depth that it’s not total fluff. I’m many ways, The Lucky Escape hits this mark. However, I found it to be an average chick lit read. Unfortunately, I found it hard to connect with Annie and Patrick. I didn’t get a good sense of who Annie is and it felt like Patrick was really just to help her get over her situation. I enjoyed the book enough while reading but if I don’t understand or connect with the characters it’s hard to really love the book. I put it down thinking “ok, that was fine. On to the next”.

Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for my copy of this book in return for an honest review!

Once I got started, I absolutely devoured this book. I found myself staying up late just to finish reading it as I was captivated.

Our main characters were enjoyable and very believable - I loved(!) the relationship shown between the two sisters and between Annie and her parents, too. I found Patrick to be very charming and someone who I very much kept reading for.

It was a witty, fast paced storyline with well developed characters and the perfect lighthearted romance.

I reviewed this title as part of my September reading wrap up: https://youtu.be/OUoKP330eR0

Fun light hearted book, plenty going on although slightly slow at the beginning. I loved the character of Patrick and his story, plenty of humour made it a good read perfect for the beach

An enjoyable beach read with fun characters! The pace was quick and held my interest. A recommended read for the summer days on the beach!

I loved this book. Such an enjoyable read. I read this in a couple of days. Definitely one to pack and take on holiday. A perfect beach read!

I really wanted to love this after loving the authors debut but I found our main character EXTREMELY annoying and also thought there was representation for representations sake. Full review will be in December wrap up on Books and Bargains

This was just an ok read.
It was ok to while away a couple of hours on a Saturday afternoon.
It was ok if the reader is looking for an easy read.
It was ok if you like fade to black rather than steamy scenes.
It was just ok!
