A Scottish Teashop in Napoli by Jane Lambert

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @rararesources for being part of this tour and reviewing this book. Scottish Teashop in Napoli has a beautiful front cover. Love the title. This is a holiday romance genre, great for the summer. The story is about Lucy, whose childhood sweetheart stands her up on their wedding day. Lucy goes on holiday without him. This is a lovely read about friendship and moving on. The story is beautifully written, and I really liked getting to know Lucy and warmed to her straight the way. I did like Elena as well and felt sorry for her due to her loss of her husband. I liked how they both found each other and became friends. . Heartwarming read, 5 stars. A Scottish Teashop in Napoli A tender and funny novel that combines the best of Scottish and Italian culture with the joys of female friendship and a cast of characters reminiscent of Jenny Colgan and Sophie Kinsella. When Lucy's childhood sweetheart stands her up on their wedding day, leaving her alone on a plane eloping to the tropical location of his choosing, their dream – now feeling like just her dream - of their bairn filled future disappears in a heartbeat (or the time it takes for her to listen to the rambling drunken voicemail he left calling off the wedding). In Naples, Elena is recently widowed and struggling to keep her husband's family's beloved and centuries old mozzarella factory afloat, whilst running her language school and bringing up their son. At risk of losing both businesses- and adding even more disruption to their life - she advertises a job and hopes for the best. The stars seem to align and Elena and Lucy, each suffering from a very different sort of loss and loneliness, set about trying to lift the struggling business and each other. A charming, tender and funny novel about the power of female friendships, the importance of letting go and the joys of eating pasta!

I really enjoyed reading this book and felt like ot held my attention to the end. I really like the characters my favourite where Max, Beanie and Erin. I love the plot with the evil Doctor Asheood and the wind turbines. It was lovely to see Max develop and start to accept his disabiliny and for Max to have the strengh to tell his dad how he felt about him not communicate with him. My heart did go out to dad ehen i found out why. It did make me sad in places but its great read and gripped me. I slso liked hid uncle and twister. I feel young adults will love this story its diffent and its grest suspence.

Thank you, @HeatherJFitt , for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Escape is set in the Mediterranean about John who has lost his wife and is trying to run away from his sadness and Pain but his life starts to change but not for the better. The descriptions in the book were brilliant. It made me feel I was in the Mediterranean with John. I found the story slow at the beginning but after a few chapters the pace sped up and then I could not put it down. I did feel sorry for John due to him seeing happy couples around him. He was surround in greif and drank to get rid of his pain.Then I felt more bad for him when he ended up in the world of drugs. I wanted to shout at him to run. Entertaining story that will keep you gripped to the end. If you like crime mystery this book is for you 4 stars. That is the question John, a trauma doctor, asks himself over and over as he mourns the death of his wife. Lost and alone, he wanders the streets of a glamorous Mediterranean...
