Synopsis:

When Lottie Foster’s grandmother’s best friend Gwen dies, she leaves Lottie her lovely home, Cuckoo Cottage.

Lottie loves the cottage but Matt, a charming local builder, points out that beneath its charm it is falling apart. Luckily he is always on hand to help with the problems that somehow seem to keep cropping up. But is he just a bit too good to be true? Certainly Will, Lottie’s closest neighbour, seems to think so.
Lottie plans to set up her own business renovating vintage caravans. She hasn’t told anyone about the project she has cooked up with Jemma from The Cherry Tree Café to repurpose Gwen’s old caravan and turn it into a mobile tearoom.

But before she can finally enjoy living with her legacy she must uncover who she can trust, and who to avoid. And with two men vying for her attention, can she find love in her new home…?

Another absolutely fabulous 5 star novel by Heidi Swain. Every single time I read books by this author I get sucked into the story straight from the first page! Heidi does an amazing job of keeping readers entertained.

First of all, I love the cover - it's so inviting and so so cute! It really gives you a feel of what the book might entail. It instantly makes you want to read it! (Well it does in my case anyway!).

Now on to the story, Coming Home to Cuckoo Cottage is about Lottie Foster who has been left a beautiful cottage in Wynbridge by her Gran's best friend Gwen. As Lottie moves in, she soon finds that there is trouble along the way as some of the residents of Wynbridge are not very happy with her moving into the town, and in particular, Gwen's lovely home.

However, even though Lottie feels some of the town against her, she also makes some good friends with local neighbours (some of which are in Heidi's other novels) and starts to enjoy her time at her new home. It soon becomes too good to be true for Lottie as local builder Matt tells her that Cuckoo Cottage needs quite a bit of renovation work - Luckily he is always there to help her out ...

For the rest of the story Lottie has a tough choice to make: Can she find it in her heart to trust her new friends? Or are they just using her to get what they can from her?

This book is full of great characters and interesting story lines, it keeps you hooked from the moment you start and I for one found that I couldn't put it down! It's charming, light hearted and easy to read. You'll soon be wanting to read more of Heidi Swain's books (that's if you haven't already!)

Overall, I loved it and can't wait to read Heidi's new novel, Sleigh Rides and Silver Bells at the Christmas Fair, which is going to be released in early October (you can already pre-order (here)- how exciting!)

Thank you to Netgalley and to the publisher for a chance to read this novel, which I have reviewed honestly.
