#MMBBR #Review Summer at Little Beach Street Bakery by @jennycolgan @Morrow_PB

For fans of Elin Hilderbrand, Jojo Moyes, and Jane Green, Summer at Little Beach Street Bakery is an irresistible novel—moving and funny, soulful and sweet—about happiness, heartache, and hope. And recipes.

A thriving bakery. A lighthouse to call home. A handsome beekeeper. A pet puffin. These are the things that Polly Waterford can call her own. This is the beautiful life she leads on a tiny island off the southern coast of England.

But clouds are gathering on the horizon. A stranger threatens to ruin Polly’s business. Her beloved boyfriend seems to be leading a secret life. And the arrival of a newcomer—a bereft widow desperately searching for a fresh start—forces Polly to reconsider the choices she’s made, even as she tries to help her new friend through grief.

Unpredictable and unforgettable, this delightful novel will make you laugh, cry, and long for a lighthouse of your own.

At her website there are extracts, book details, some recipes and info and what-not. 

Here’s her updated Facebook site, where she posts details of anything interesting that she is up to or baking a bit more regularly.

Do please follow her on Twitter, at @jennycolgan – that’s a great place to say hello to if you want to chat – or on Facebook, where she is much better at answering mail. 

A great read to escape into this summer.  You will enjoy the the recipe of a great setting, a dash of deliciousness, with a few pinches of love and hope and a few sprinkles of heartbreak.  You may laugh, you may cry...but you will certainly feel the story.  You will want to own a puffin and a lighthouse after you finish this book...you have been warned!  4 stars
