When I got the request to read this book I stocked up on tissues because I knew I would need them (I cried through both the previous books) Josie Silver writes unashamedly romantic books that pull at your heart strings and I unashamedly immerse myself in them.

Cleo is a journalist who writes about her online dating life, it's not going well so when her boss suggests she does something a little different for the column and wants to send her somewhere remote to marry herself Cleo thinks sun and secluded beach.

She ends up on a remote Irish Island called Salvation in a little lodge beside the beach but unfortunately there has been a slight mishap with the booking and the owner's American cousin Mack, has also turned up.

Mack's life back home is complicated, separated from his wife, he's a photographer and he felt there was no better time for him to come, take photographs and connect with the Island that was in so many of the stories told to him by his maternal grandmother.

With no other place for either of them to stay and only a weekly boat to and from the island they are forced to share the lodge much to their dismay.

The book is written from the perspective of Cleo and Mack, not in alternating chapters but when the book dictates and it flows well.

There is not one unlikeable character in the book and the setting is described perfectly I'm left wanting to visit Salvation and meet them all, stay in the lodge, drink in the pub, scream on Wailing Hill, skinny dip in the secret cave and join the knitting circle.

This was such a lovely, easy read that I didn't want to put it down.

Big thanks to Penguin Books and Netgalley for the ARC

Cleo lives in London and is a writer. She has a dating column in a successful online women’s magazine. Her column focuses on her (failed) dating attempts and her search for her flamingo (her happily ever after). As she is fast approaching her thirtieth birthday, her editor thinks that it would be a great idea to self-couple and marry herself. Cleo is not sold on the idea but finds herself shortly after aboard a small boat on her way to Salvation Island.

On arrival at Otter Lodge she is surprised to find someone else there - an American man who has also booked the lodge. After much deliberation and with a storm fast approaching they both agree to spend the night in the lodge and seek a solution when the storm has passed.

Unfortunately though there is no solution (and no way to the mainland except the once a week boat service) and so they must learn to both stay in the lodge. So not what Cleo was expecting or hoping for as she was contemplating life or Mack who came to put some space (approx 3,000 miles) between him and his estranged wife and sons while exploring the island that is part of his heritage.

Both of them find far more than they bargained for and fall in love with the island and it’s inhabitants. However what will become of them.

A truly magical love story as much about learning to live yourself as falling in love. Slightly confused by the title though as they are on the island way longer than one night.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced read copy of this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.
