Just for the Summer by Fay Keenan is the third book in her Willowbury Book series. Such a fun book, with great characters in a quaint British rural village.

Kate Harris is newly divorced with three young boys to raise. When they sell the family home in Cambridge, she decides to move to her brother, Aiden’s home in the countryside to redecorate his house, while he goes on holiday with his partner Tom.

In the village of Willowbury, Kate meets the local bookseller, Harry Sinclair, and when he offers her a job to re decorate his bookstore, they become closer, and sparks fly.

I love a book set in an idyllic, quaint small town, and Willowbury doesn’t disappoint. Harry Sinclair is a somewhat shy, but handsome man, who needs someone in his life, even if he doesn’t know it. And Kate is just the right person for him.

These characters are fun, and completely charming. Even though Kate’s husband cheated on her and left her, she doesn’t dwell on how horrible her ex is (even though he is) instead she takes responsibility for her part in the dissolution of the marriage and just wants to move on. This book was a fast read, and the action grabbed me at the very beginning and never let up. I highly recommend this book to all who love a small town romance.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I received an advance copy of, Just for the Summer, by Fay Keenan. This is a light beach read, Good characters and setting.

I don't give away 5 stars very often. To earn it the book has to take me through a selection of feelings and REALLY make me feel them, it has to grab my attention quickly and keep it throughout, and has to force me to stay up late because I cant put it down.

Just for the Summer by Fay Keegan did all that and much more. I was invested in Kate from the very beginning and was taken on a roller-coaster of just about every emotion possible.

Kate is recently divorced, with no attention of getting into another relationship, when she leaves Cambridge to redecorate her brothers house in the West Country. There she spills coffee on the local bookshop owner, Heath, and maybe things might be about to change?

Definitely I highly recommended romance.
