Escape to the Devon coast, with Part Four of a brand-new four-part serial from the author of Willow Cottage.
Daisy Wickens has returned to Ottercombe Bay, the picturesque Devon town where her mother died when she was a girl. She plans to leave as soon as her great uncle's funeral is over, but Great Uncle Reg had other ideas. He's left Daisy a significant inheritance - an old building in a state of disrepair, which could offer exciting possibilities, but to get it she must stay in Ottercombe Bay for twelve whole months.
With the help of a cast of quirky locals, a few gin cocktails and a black pug with plenty of attitude, Daisy might just turn this into something special. But can she ever hope to be happy among the ghosts of her past?
-----------------------------
Wow, what an ending! I knew that the final novel in the series was going to be good but I didn't know it was going to be that amazing! When the last novel finished off, Daisy's ex was back on the scene, and leaving Daisy a little confused and Max a little suspicious. When this novella started, the action was from the off and I couldn't believe how much could be packed into a hundred (odd) pages!
We finally learn what happened to Daisy's mum after Bella Osbourne left us hanging in the first three and it was certainly interesting to find out. I feel like Bella wrapped up all the mysteries so well and almost effortlessly. I'm so happy with the way it ended, I was hoping that it would end like it did so of course this novella doesn't get any less than 5 stars from me. I feel like, after everything that Daisy had been through that she really deserved a happy ending. And I was also a bit shocked about her Aunt's own storyline!
The characters are all brilliant and the only thing is that I wish we read a bit more about Tamsyn in this one - she was one of my favourite characters, she was just so funny! I loved reading about the Gin/Hot chocolate bar as well - those hot chocolates sounded seriously delicious! I'm actually sad that there are no more parts to this story, but Bella Osbourne definitely ended it on a high. Overall, this story is heartwarming and seriously addictive. You'll read it in no time and I loved it.
Thank you to the publisher for a chance to read this novel via Netgalley, which I have reviewed honestly.
