A fabulous new romance to escape with this summer. Set in Cornwall.
Essy Havers is good at finding things. Her company specialises in helping clients track down anything, from missing china pieces to rare vintage clothing. But now Essy has something more important to find: herself.Essy has always been curious about her mother’s secret past and her Cornish roots. So, when the opportunity arises, she hops on a plane in Tennessee and ends up in Herring Bay in Cornwall; the village where her mother grew up.But once there, she’s mystified by the reactions of the villagers when they realise who she is. Was Essy’s decision to visit Cornwall a mistake, or will it lead to a summer she’ll never forget?
Welcome to the A Summer to Remember in Herring Bay Blog Tour!
This was one of those very-rare-for-me books lately that completely swept me away in the story and made me read it fully through in about two sittings. There were many chapters, but each one is relatively short and so engaging that the book just breezes by.
There were quite a few elements to this story–so many different character arcs that made me root for so many of the characters and their happiness.
From long-lost family, to discovering who you are and not being ashamed of it, to finding love in the last place you expected, and to forgiveness–this story has it all.
I’m thoroughly impressed by the authors ability to weave so many great lessons in one book. And all the while keeping me entertained and so far from bored that I found myself thinking about this book when I wasn’t able to read it.
Britnell is an amazing storyteller, one whom I can’t wait to read more from.

The feeling of being completely swept away by a story is one of the best ever! I’m glad you enjoyed it so much.
