I had planned to buy a few goodies to run a Summer bundle giveaway but sadly life has gotten in the way recently and it fell by the wayside. So instead I have decided to run a giveaway for you to choose a book yourself, either an eBook which can be gifted via Amazon, or paperback which I'll buy and either post to you myself or will order to be posted direct to you.
Below are a few of the recent summery books that have caught my eye which might appeal to you, or maybe you've got your eye on something else.
The Beach Holiday by Isabelle Broom
A somebody. A nobody.A love story waiting to be written . . .
All aspiring novelist Honor has ever wanted is to be successful. It's the only way she can impress the father who abandoned her, the boyfriend who gave up on her, and the nagging voice in her head that tells her she's not good enough.
Still, wanting to tell a story is not the same as having a story to tell, and Honor knows she needs to find a new source of inspiration.
When she's invited to spend a summer abroad in The Hamptons, Honor realises it could be the dream setting for a book, especially when a chance encounter provides her with the perfect leading man.
But blurring fact and fiction is a dangerous game, and Honor soon discovers that writing her way to success might come at the expense of her own happy ever after . . .
Happy Place by Emily Henry
Two exes. One pact.Could this holiday change everything?
Harriet and Wyn are the perfect couple - they go together like bread and butter, gin and tonic, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
Every year, they take a holiday from their lives to drink far too much wine with their favourite people in the world.
Except this year, they are lying through their teeth, because Harriet and Wyn broke up six months ago. And they still haven't told anyone.
But the cottage is for sale so this is the last time they'll all be here together. They can't bear to break their best friends' hearts so they'll fake it for one more week.
But how can you pretend to be in love - and get away with it - in front of the people who know you best?
The Sunrise Sisterhood by Cathy Bramley
Three generations of women, and the summer that saved them.
The holidays are here, and in Salcombe, Liz longs for the arrival of her god-daughters, Skye and Clare and Clare's daughter baby Ivy. After years on her own, she needs help to save the catering business she built with Clare's late mother, Jen.
However, half-sisters Skye and Clare couldn't be more different, struggling with family secrets and hidden jealousies. As the women navigate this unexpected summer together, truths are revealed and their relationships are put to the test.
Summer Wedding by Sarah Morgan
A family weddingCatherine Swift is a bestselling romance author, but her personal story hasn’t been quite so successful; three failed marriages have left her relationship with her daughters strained. Engaged once again, Catherine is counting on this wedding, at her villa in Corfu, to finally bring the family together.
A summer of secrets
Adeline can’t believe her mother is getting married for a fourth time, or that she’s expected to attend. It brings back the pain of her mother’s infidelity and the baby who was the result. Not that she blames her half-sister Cassie, but then she's never tried to know her, either. Cassie, on the other hand, is thrilled by her mother’s news – she’s always admired Catherine’s resilience, and is excited to meet the mystery groom. Cassie also has a secret of her own, and a summer in Corfu will give her the time she needs to process everything.
A chance to start over again
As the guests arrive on the island, and the big day approaches, Catherine begins to reveal secrets from her past, and suddenly both Cassie and Adeline realise that they don’t know their mother at all . . .
The House in the Olive Grove by Emma Cowell
Will one week in Greece change their lives for ever?Food journalist Kayla thought this was going to be just another work trip. But right before she leaves for Greece, she discovers that her whole life is built on a lie.
Jewellery-maker Alessandra has always lived according to her own rules – despite what it has cost her to do so. But she has just had some devastating news.
As these three very different women come together at the house in the olive grove, unlikely friendships blossom and a season of self-discovery begins. Will the sumptuous flavours, sapphire waters and golden sands of Greece give each of them the answers they so desperately seek?
What books are you looking forward to reading this Summer? I'm hoping that my reading mojo returns soon as I have quite a few Summer books waiting for me on my kindle that I've bought over the last few months.

Some great books around this summer Sharon. I've got my eye on The Figurine by Victoria Hislop out end of September xx
ReplyDeleteI have some of those already, but definitely want to add Isabelle Broom’s latest to my TBR mountain.
ReplyDeleteI have my eye on After That Night by Karin Slaughter, which was released a few days ago. It's not particularly summery but I do love a good crime thriller.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sharon🤗 I am looking forward to Wait for Me by Santa Montefiore and Kitty Neale’s new book A Wife’s Courage. I can’t get enough of Daniel Hurst’s books at the moment 😃
