Synopsis:
Join the whole village at The Big Little Festival for the perfect summer day out!
With only weeks until the little Devon village of Rabbit's Leap holds its first ever festival, Jody McArthur is desperate. She - more than anyone - wants to raise the funds to rebuild the local swimming pool and when she fell pregnant with her twin boys, it was the village who was there to support her. So, to stop a disaster in its tracks, she brings in bigshot London events manager Christian Middlemore to make The Big Little Festival the huge success everyone deserves.
But Jody is totally unprepared for the impact reserved-but-gorgeous Christian has on Rabbit's Leap - and her heart! Except Jody has avoided relationships for so long, and anyway, she's sure romance between a country-born-and-bred single mum and a career-focused city boy would be impossible - wouldn't it?
As tensions rise along with the home baked scones and miles and miles of bunting, Jody is about to find out!
The second book set in this picture-perfect Rabbit's Leap, this little village is where love blooms!
-------------------------
I absolutely adored the cover of this pretty summer read and the story inside did not disappoint either!
I found the character of Jody really relatable and likeable - as well as her twin boys Tyler and Jordan. I think I preferred this second one of the series than the first. I think the characters flowed together better and you could tell there was good relationships between all of the villagers. There was a real sense of community within this book and that's one thing I really enjoy in a story.
I also thought that the character of Christian was really likeable, even though I didn't think I would like him at first! Their relationship didn't seem too rushed or over the top and found the building up of their relationship really enjoyable. The book had some wonderful moments, as well as some humorous ones - and times when you 'awwed' at what was happening between the two potential love birds!
Overall, a really likeable, lighthearted story that made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Thank you to Netgalley and to the publisher for a chance to read this novel, which I have reviewed honestly.
