My Review
I have to confess I deliberately chose to read this on my holiday as you just can’t beat a good romance when reading on the beach. It didn’t disappoint, in the romantic stakes as its unashamedly a love story. With a real handsome hunk Cal, ex military Scotsman, male escort and accidental tour guide. There are Sophia and teenage daughter Ida, travelling from their home in Rio de Janeiro to the UK for a medical trip to try and save Ida’s failing eyesight prior to Sophias impending marriage to a wealthy businessman.
These unlikely comapnions end up touring Scotland together and its really not surprising when a romance developes between Sophia and Cal.
What is surprising is the depth of descriptiveness of the places they visit, making it feel like I was on the trip with them. and the breadth of the story which is deliciously multi-layered and rich. With just a touch of magic but not enough to make it a fairytale.
All in all a fabulous holiday read for anyone who loves a romance with realistic characters you can warm to and grow involved with
