Searching for Steven by Jessica Redland
3.0
I received this book through netgalley.
I was so worried this was going to be a lame beach read. I was pleasantly surprised!
I thought, oh no, Sarah is going to be totally obsessed with finding her Steven (which she was a bit, but that psychic's prophesy was pretty accurate, who wouldn't be?) but she was still open to other possibilities, which I appreciated.
Her best friends were hilarious - it's always hard being a friendship of 3, especially with females, and the author wrote about that like she was experienced with that or something. ;-)
One of my favourite authors for nice beach reads is Katie Fforde, she usually has a main female character, a house/boat/store is tossed in there to be fixed up, men are introduced in a bit of a gothic romance kind of way, you're never sure who the good one is...and Jessica sort of followed that kind of template. Not a negative thing, it's fun to read when they're well done, and this one was.
