Jill Mansell books really get to me. I love the humor
in this story. Mansell shows that no matter how much you
care about someone, sometimes you have to stand back and
just let things happen. I also really liked the way Mansell
described the scenery of this little
town. This is the kind of book that you can just sit
back and let it take you away.
I have to admit, I read this book way too fast. Once I was
done, I
wished that I had taken longer to read it. You know how
it goes, you get into it and before you know it, it's
done. I loved this book. Buy it, get a glass of wine and
just enjoy.
