Book Description
'Beautifully written, comforting and utterly uplifting, Lucy Coleman’s stories are the perfect tonic when life is a little grey.' Holly Martin
Seren Maddison left behind a rainy Britain to follow her dreams and live and work in Lisbon. The vibrancy, the beautiful scenery and the sunshine, made her fall in love and she knew, instantly, that it would be her forever home.
International artist Reid Henderson has homes in Lisbon and London. Following his painful divorce, his dream is to turn his luxurious home into an art school and gallery.
When Seren and Reid first meet there is an instant attraction, but they are both people who have been hurt, and each have dreams that are so far apart, they aren’t even on the same page.
Can they enjoy one summer of happiness together, as life bestows a gift of memories to cherish for the rest of their lives? Or is their destiny to chart a path into the future, in a home where dreams can come true?
Seren and Reid may be about to discover that love is as much about what you are prepared to give up, as what you are prepared to keep hold of.
Let Lucy Coleman transport you away to sun-drenched Portugal where true love really can conquer all, and home is where the heart is. Perfect for all fans of Trisha Ashley, Holly Martin and Sue Moorcroft.
My Review
This is such a wonderful sunshine filled read that is perfect for some escapism from a grey and cold December day.
Seren Maddison has had enough of working for her controlling father and has made the decision to try something new. Seren is heading to Lisbon to both work and live and is looking forward to her new adventure.
Lisbon is everything that Seren could have ever wanted and is so different to her life in England. The city is so bright and colourful and full of possibilities for Seren which she fully submerges herself into. Seren is also beginning to make friends with her work colleagues at the gallery and is enjoying exploring Lisbon with them.
It is through her job that she meets international artist Reid Henderson.
Reid Henderson has home both in Lisbon and London, he has recently come through a messy divorce and has made the decision to turn his home into a gallery and art school.
There is an obvious spark of romance between the two of them from the first time they meet and its clear to see just how much they like each other but they both seem to want different things with their lives. Can the two of them make it work or is Seren going to be unlucky in love again?
What follows is the life of Seren as she has her first summer in Lisbon and spends more time with Reid. This will be a summer neither of them will forget but will their attraction for each other be enough for them both so be together?
This was such a wonderful book to read and I loved it from beginning to end.
The description of Lisbon sounds truly wonderful and you can almost feel the heat of the city coming off of the pages.
I really enjoyed the love story between Seren and Reid. It is clear that they both have had difficulties in their lives and that they both find it difficult moving forwards but they are both trying their best.
I really enjoy the writing style of Lucy Coleman, she has a way of really drawing you into a story and keeping you there right up until the last page.
this is the perfect read for injecting some sunshine into your life.
