Missing You by Louise Douglas
5.0
I really enjoyed this book, I tend to read a lot of books that are fast paced and it was lovely to read a book that is at a slower, gentler pace..
This book is a lovely story about the two main characters Fen, single mum of Connor, and Sean who has just found out his wife has been having an affair. Sean having to leave the family home chances upon a room that is for rent in Fen's home. As the two become more familiar with each other their relationship grows into more than a land lady and a lodger.
As always though, nothing is that simple. Fen has a guilty secret from her past and Sean's ex, Bella, threatens to break up the happy couple. There is a sense of a will they won't they going through out the book and I honestly thought I knew how it was going to end. Have got to say I loved the ending and was glad I had guessed wrong.
The characters were all very strong in their roles even though some didn't appear in the story much. I loved Sean's sister in particular and I really cared for Fen and Sean and am quite sad now that the story is over.
Missing You is the first book I have read by this author and I certainly look forward to reading more by her.
