I love this series, so I was delighted when the publisher sent me a NetGalley widget  for this latest book. As soon as I started reading I knew I was in for a real treat, and snuggled down to follow Hannah on her culinary journey in Ireland.
I loved the Irish setting so much, it really made me want to visit rural Ireland, but not the cookery school so much! I would be just like Hannah especially if I had to make a Victoria sponge!  All food descriptions made me want to do some cooking with fresh seasonal ingredients. I loved how all the different students had daily chores and enjoyed visiting the hens with Hannah each morning. The banter between the different characters was so natural, it made the book feel very real.
I had a funny feeling that I knew what was going to happen between Hannah and Connor, but I really didn’t mind as the chemistry between them was perfect, and after all this is a romance! 
If you’re looking for a cosy read I definitely recommend this one. In fact I recommend the whole Romantic Escapes series!

Took a while to get into it. Halfway through I could see the ending all lined up neatly but there were a few nice twists and turns and little issues to neatly wrap up in a bow that kept me happy until the end
