MAYBE THIS TIME is popular,
bestselling British author Jill Mansell's latest book. The story, set in
England, is about Mimi and the people in her life. The story starts with
Mimi on her way to Goosebrooke to visit her father Dan Huish, who's
recently moved there with his partner. On her way to the house, Mimi's
path crosses with Cal in a very funny, interesting manner. She is pretty
much attracted to him by the end of their meeting. However, Cal is
happily married and has a six-year-old daughter about whom he's told
Mimi all about in their first meeting. Over the next few visits to her
father, Mimi keeps aside her attraction to Cal until she's forced to move
to Goosebrooke in a rush. The story is how while Mimi deals with
difficulties in her life and her attraction to Cal. Over time, they both
deal with grief and loss in their lives, but things never quite work so
they can be together. Staying in touch over the years, Mimi and Cal
become good friends. Will the time ever come so they can see if
they're meant to be?
The setting of MAYBE THIS TIME
is in a picturesque small village with warm, fun characters. I loved the
whole set up. The premise of Mimi always missing out on being with Cal
is peppered with some funny, some not so funny incidents and dramas
in her personal and work life. The little band of characters like Mimi's
friends in Goosebrooke, people she works with provide a light, easy
layer to her story. It is a pretty good read on a holiday or even for lazy
days.
