This one was quite a short read. I felt it went straight to the point within in the first chapter. Although I enjoyed it, because it went straight to the point I felt I didn't get to know the characters enough

I got this book as a cosy fiction blind book date and that is exactly how it felt. I was just a really easy comforting easy to read book that brought me sunshine. Would be a great book to binge on a day at the beach.

A quick and easy read from an author that lives in my country, New Zealand. The characters were all really likeable although I did want to bang the mother over the head a couple of times. It was predictable but still made me laugh and smile! I've got the next book in the series ready to go, which is about the sister of Tony, one of the main characters of this story.

This is a nice short story, perfect for a quick afternoon read.
It's about Mel, a local café owner, and Tony, the owner of the local pub. Mel agrees to help Tony save the pub if he poses as her fake fiancée, to keep her mum off her back.
Mel's mum is very annoying. She is a cougar desperate to find her Mr. Right-now, even going to the lengths of flirting with her daughter's (fake) fiancée. I also feel like Mel and her mum don't actually resolve their issues.
Whilst I would love to see a story about Tony's sister, Jody, finding love, this book will probably end up just sitting on my shelf.
