Sunshine and Sweet Peas in Nightingale Square
Heidi Swain
Rating: 5 stars
The heart-warming new novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author, perfect for fans of Carole Matthews, Milly Johnson and Cathy Bramley
Kate is on the run from her almost-divorced husband who is determined to have her back, and she has found the perfect place to hide... a little cottage on Nightingale Square in Norwich, far away from her old life in London. But the residents of Nightingale Square don't take no for an answer, and Kate soon finds herself pulled into a friendship with Lisa, her bossy but lovely new neighbour.
Within a matter of days Kate is landed with the job of campaigning the council to turn the green into a community garden, meanwhile all the residents of Nightingale Square are horrified to discover that the Victorian mansion house on the other side of the square has been bought by developers. But when all hope is lost, the arrival of a handsome stranger is sure to turn things around!
Heidi Swain is the perfect summer read - you'll want to find your own green space, stretch out in the sun and dive into life at Nightingale Square.
--------------------------------------------
Another novel of Heidi's that I can't give no less than 5 stars to. I absolutely loved this novel and it is now possibly my favourite of Heidi's to date. I felt like the storyline was totally refreshing and was just so enjoyable that I couldn't put it down. The cover, as it always does with Heidi's novels, just drew me in completely and I love every part of it. I love the willow tree, I love the big stately home in the centre, and the green with the fountain, everything goes together so well and it really makes such a stunning cover.
The storyline itself is completely mesmerising and I really enjoyed reading about the mystery behind the hidden painting. I found myself really liking the relationship between Kate and Luke and absolutely adored the friendship which quickly blossomed between Kate, and new neighbours Lisa and Heather. Every time I read a novel by Heidi Swain, I always long to live in the place the story is set, just because the characters all seem so lovely and inviting!
I wondered how this book was going to go down seeing as it was set in a different location, but I still really loved it. I missed Wynbridge (although - it does make an appearance!) and I loved that the characters from past novels still appeared in this one! I just love the continuity that Heidi has in all of her books. It was nice that the community spirit was included in this novel as well, it just has such a feel-good vibe to it.
Overall, another fantastic novel by the lovely Heidi Swain that'll leave you smiling for hours after you've finished it. Thank you to the publisher for a chance to read this novel via Netgalley, which I have reviewed honestly.
