About:
When Scotland’s sleepiest hamlet becomes the centre of hot gossip, Layla Devlin finds herself caught in a mystery…
When Layla’s fiancée has an unexpected heart attack and dies – in another woman’s arms, no less – Layla is determined to pack up and leave Loch Harris, the village she’s always called home. But an unexpected inheritance and love for her quiet corner of Scotland send her down a new path.
Now Layla finds herself facing a whole new kind of drama. Rumours swirl that a celebrity has moved into Coorie Cottage and Layla is determined to have him headline her opening night at local music venue The Conch Club. But the reclusive star is equally determined to thwart Layla’s efforts. Rafe Buchanan is in hiding for a reason, and soon his past comes to Loch Harris to haunt him.
Review:
This book annoyed me for quite a few chapters, I have never read this author before and whilst her writing is very easy to read it seem a little too simple and predictable from the outset. It improved as I moved through the chapters but it is still predictable. I got the feeling that everything was thrown at us in the first few chapters with no anticipation . It came across to me like a child wanting to know all the detail straight away and being given it and then it was a disappointment.
I have read other reviews on this author and would like to try one of her other books to see how it compares.
