Blog Tour – Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett @Tr4cyF3nt0n @orbitbooks #CompulsiveReaders #BlogTour #BookReview #EmilyWildesEnclyclopaediaOfFaeries

This book is almost a million miles from my usual preferred genres, but I decided that in 2023 I would push my boundaries, a little, and challenge myself to read outside my usual styles.  I’m ever so glad that I made that decision. Thanks to Tracy Fenton at Compulsive Readers and Orbit Books for myContinue reading “Blog Tour – Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett @Tr4cyF3nt0n @orbitbooks #CompulsiveReaders #BlogTour #BookReview #EmilyWildesEnclyclopaediaOfFaeries”

Blog Tour – Promise Me by Jill Mansell @JillMansell @RandomTTours @HeadlineFiction @Headlinepg #BlogTour #BookReview #JoyWithJill #PromiseMe

I often speak about preferred and favourite authors, but Jill Mansell definitely holds the title of original and ultimate.  From her first book, I was hooked and a loyal reader. I always look forward to January as I know that a new book will be published soon.  To then discover that the rather lovely AnneContinue reading “Blog Tour – Promise Me by Jill Mansell @JillMansell @RandomTTours @HeadlineFiction @Headlinepg #BlogTour #BookReview #JoyWithJill #PromiseMe”

Blog Tour – Healing Hearts at Bumblebee Barn by Jessica Redland @jessicaredland @rarareources @BoldwoodBooks #BlogTour #BookReview #boldwoodbloggers #HealingHeartsAtBumblebeeBarn

If you’re new to my blog, you may not know that Jessica Redland is one of a growing number of authors whose work I just love.  The list is growing but in fairness, I find that I hold those authors to a higher standard.  Unfair? Perhaps, but I want to make sure that my recommendationsContinue reading “Blog Tour – Healing Hearts at Bumblebee Barn by Jessica Redland @jessicaredland @rarareources @BoldwoodBooks #BlogTour #BookReview #boldwoodbloggers #HealingHeartsAtBumblebeeBarn”

Blog Tour – Berlin Calling by Lilo Moore @leoniemauthor @rararesources #BlogTour #BookReview #RomCom #BerlinCalling

When Rachel Gilbey invited me onto this tour, I was intrigued to see how Leonie Mack would transition from writing romantic travel fiction to creating a far steamier storyline. I am delighted to say that she coped brilliantly and this Euro romp is a risqué tale of life behind the scenes of a fictional versionContinue reading “Blog Tour – Berlin Calling by Lilo Moore @leoniemauthor @rararesources #BlogTour #BookReview #RomCom #BerlinCalling”

Blog Tour – Tilly’s Tuscan Teashop by Daisy James @daisyjamesbooks @rararesources #BlogTour #BookReview #PublicationDay #TillysTuscanTeashop

As a result of both poor timing and a busy blogging schedule, I’ve only read a couple of books by Daisy James, but I’m completely aware of her work and her faithful readers. I did manage to sneak onto the blog tour for Christmas at the Cornish Confetti Agency and you can read my reviewContinue reading “Blog Tour – Tilly’s Tuscan Teashop by Daisy James @daisyjamesbooks @rararesources #BlogTour #BookReview #PublicationDay #TillysTuscanTeashop”

Blog Tour – A Love to Last a Lifetime – by Clare Swatman @clareswatman @rararesources @BoldwoodBooks #PublicationDay #BlogTour #BookReview #boldwoodbloggers #ALoveToLastALifetime

Last summer I read my first book by Clare Swatman and immediately fell in love with her style of storytelling.  Originally published as How to Save a Life, the Night we First Met was close to perfection and I was completely enchanted by the story.  You can read my review here. I’m grateful to Rachel’sContinue reading “Blog Tour – A Love to Last a Lifetime – by Clare Swatman @clareswatman @rararesources @BoldwoodBooks #PublicationDay #BlogTour #BookReview #boldwoodbloggers #ALoveToLastALifetime”

Blog Tour – Sunrise with the Silver Surfers by Maddy Please @maddieplease1 @rararesources @BoldwoodBooks #BlogTour #BookReview #boldwoodbloggers #SunriseWithTheSilverSurfers

One of the many perks of working with Rachel Gilby’s Random Resources is the opportunity to discover new to me authors. Maddy Please is one such author and I have loved her since the first book.  Like another Boldwood author, Judy Leigh, Maddy Please highlights women in their older years and repeatedly proves that lifeContinue reading “Blog Tour – Sunrise with the Silver Surfers by Maddy Please @maddieplease1 @rararesources @BoldwoodBooks #BlogTour #BookReview #boldwoodbloggers #SunriseWithTheSilverSurfers”

Blog Tour – The Backup Plan by Jill Shalvis @jillshalvis @eternal_books @IsabelleHPG #BlogTour #BookReview #PublicationDay #TheBackupPlan

I have become a fan of Jill Shalvis having discovered her writing via NetGalley.  Her style is thoroughly engaging, and I always escape into the stories that she creates.  Invariably, she writes about ordinary people with an innate sense of the real world.  Her writing focuses on the people and not their bank balances. IfContinue reading “Blog Tour – The Backup Plan by Jill Shalvis @jillshalvis @eternal_books @IsabelleHPG #BlogTour #BookReview #PublicationDay #TheBackupPlan”

Blog Tour – There’s No Place Like Home by Jane Lovering @janelovering @rararesources @BoldwoodBooks #boldwoodbloggers #BlogTour #BookReview #TheresNoPlaceLikeHome

Jane Lovering is one of my favourite authors and I have followed her work from her debut award-winning book to her most recent offerings.  She’s taken me all over Yorkshire and even introduced me to vampires! Even though her earlier books were top-notch, I have to say that I think this could be her bestContinue reading “Blog Tour – There’s No Place Like Home by Jane Lovering @janelovering @rararesources @BoldwoodBooks #boldwoodbloggers #BlogTour #BookReview #TheresNoPlaceLikeHome”

Blog Tour – A Laird in London by Catherine Tinley @catherinetinley @rararesources #BookReview #BlogTour #Giveaway #ALairdInLondon

Having read and enjoyed a number of Catherine Tinley’s lovely stories, it was a no-brainer to take my place on the blog tour for this follow-up to A Laird for the Governess, where we met Angus’ brother as he fell in love.  Once again, I was transported back to the era that has found commercialContinue reading “Blog Tour – A Laird in London by Catherine Tinley @catherinetinley @rararesources #BookReview #BlogTour #Giveaway #ALairdInLondon”
