Book Information 

IF YOU ONLY READ ONE BOOK THIS SUMMER, MAKE IT SUMMER AT THE CASTLE CAFÉ…

When Alice Appleton escapes to the beautiful seaside town of Castle Cove it’s the change of scenery she didn’t even realise she needed. Taking up a job in the charming Castle Café, Alice finds herself surrounded by cream teas, chocolate cake and quirky characters. Could this be the perfect place for Alice to embrace the summer?

Mysterious and handsome Jay O’Donnell has lived in picturesque Castle Cove since he was a child. As a volunteer on the lifeboats, his days by the sea are far from predictable. Haunted by a tragedy from his past, he’s on a mission to save as many people as possible. But when Alice Appleton walks into his life - and turns his world upside down - he begins to realise that perhaps it might just be his turn to be rescued…

As Alice and Jay find themselves unexpectedly falling for each other, will they learn the importance of letting go to make way for second chances? And will Alice find the life she’s always dreamed of in Castle Cove?

Heart-warming, hilarious and utterly romantic, Summer at the Castle Café is perfect for fans of Debbie Johnson, Lucy Diamond and Phillipa Ashley.

My Review 

5☆ An Absolute Joy to Read

Summer at the Castle Cafe is a really warm feel good story. I devoured overnight.
It has romance, humour, heartbreak, friendship, scrumptious food, loveable characters and a gorgeous pup.

Alice came to Castle Cove after her mum passes away.
Alice promised her mum that she would compete in a triathlon with her before she passed away. So she is now determined to fullfill that wish.
If only she could overcome her fear of the sea!

Alice works at the Castle Cafe, she is a lil bit of a klutz spilling things over a customer and breaking a cupboard off a wall.
But it's a good thing Jay is about to rescue her from her mishaps.

Jay is gorgeous, kind, some might say a hero. As he volunteers as a lifeboat rescuer. But he too harbours a painful secret.

Jay is attracted to Alice. Even though Alice is sarcastic, mean and pushes him away. He can't help running back for more.

Will Alice and Jay ever drop their guard down and have some fun. Or will their past stop them from getting It on!

I adored Alice and Jay and was rooting for them both to be happy.
Alice has a fair amount of issues so it was so wonderful to see her grow as the story progressed.

The story does contain some subjects that some May find hard to read such as grief, death, drowning, divorce.
However they are handled with the right amount of sensitivity to still make an impact.

I adored Summer at the Castle Cafe.
It had a lil sprinkle of everything.
The romance fizzes along just perfectly.
It was an absolute joy to read so much so i devoured it from cover to cover!
It was a warm and engaging story, great characterisation with Genuine and realistic characters that I fell in love with.

Summer at the Castle Cafe is the perfect feel good story.
The Perfect read if your looking for some escapism.

So if your looking for a compelling, funny, warm, Rom com then you definitely need to snuggle up with Summer at the Castle Cafe!!
