Blog Tour Stop with Review - The Life We Almost Had by Amelia Henley


Welcome to my stop on the Blog Tour for The Life We Almost Had by Amelia Henley!
What They Say:

 This is not a typical love story, but it’s our love story.

Anna wasn’t looking for love when Adam swept her off her feet but there was no denying their connection, and she believed they would be together forever.

Years later, cracks have appeared in their relationship. Anna is questioning whether their love can really be eternal when a cruel twist of fate delivers a crushing blow, and Anna and Adam are completely lost to one another. Now, Anna needs Adam more than ever, but the way back to him has life-changing consequences.

Is a second chance at first love really worth the sacrifice? Anna needs to decide and time is running out…

A beautiful and emotional love story that asks, how far would you go for a second chance at first love? Perfect for fans of The Man Who Didn’t Call and Miss You
What I Say:

 This is not your typical love story. It is so much more complex. It's tragically sad and wonderfully romantic. It's clever and sweet and deep. It makes you question how far you would go for love and what you would do if it was tragically taken from you. 

 I fully understand some of the struggles Anna and Adam face. I've faced (and am facing) them too and it's so difficult to watch the life you dreamed of disappear time after time. The pressure it can put on a relationship too, is brutal. It takes such a strong resolve to keep it together.

 Adam and Anna's relationship is not smooth sailing but it's their love story and it's beautiful and complicated. Complex and yet so simple at its core. 

 Tragedy strikes and turns everything upside down. Can they ever recover and have the life they dreamt of? The science in this book is so thoroughly researched it's impressive. Kudos to Amelia for that! It's a huge credit to her as it proves her dedication to her craft. 

 There is so much emotion in this story and I laughed and cried. I sobbed actually. Beautiful from the first page to the very last word. I loved it! 10/10

The Life We Almost Had is out now! Thanks to the publisher, HQ Stories, and Netgalley for allowing me to read an advanced e-copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Why I'm Shaving My Head for Lancashire Women

Hi there! I know it's been ages since I've done a personal blog post.      Things have been... weird. I know the whole world has struggled getting used to this new normal and the new measures we have to follow. So many people have lost so much to COVID and my heart breaks for them. And while the virus itself hasn't changed my life very much, this time of lockdowns and self-isolating has been really hard for me too.      When it all first started to change, Steve was taken into hospital with a bunch of different symptoms. COVID wasn't really a thing then, so he wasn't tested for it, but looking back, we're pretty sure that's what it was. While he was in hospital in March, an inspector from the RSPCA came to check on the welfare of our dogs as they'd had a report that Sky, our GSD, was too skinny. She is petite, a slim girl who didn't have a good start in life but is spoilt rotten now, along with our other 2, Bella and Minnie. They had no concerns and

Blog Tour Stop and Review of The Holiday Escape by Heidi Swain

Welcome to my stop on the Blog Tour for The Holiday Escape by the delightful Heidi Swain! Let me preface this by saying that this is my first blog tour in a year, and the last one was for Heidi's last standalone book, The Book-Lovers Retreat! What better way to make my comeback than this??!! What They Say: Her dream holiday is his everyday life. His dream holiday is her normal life. What happens when they collide?   Ally and her dad, Geoff, run the family business, a creative retreat, from their home Hollyhock Cottage in picturesque Kittiwake Cove. They give their guests their dream break, but Ally hankers after glamourous city living, fancy restaurants and art galleries. Ally’s survival strategy is to escape out of season, take a break abroad and pretend to be the person she always imagined she would be. She meets Logan while she’s away and he turns out to be  exactly  the kind of distraction she’s looking for. With her spirits restored, Ally returns home, picks up the reins again
