The Bakery at Seashell Cove

An absolutely hilarious, uplifting summer read about living life to the full!

Meg Larson thought she had everything she wanted: she works in the local bakery, she's months away from marrying her high-school sweetheart, and home is beautiful, sunny Seashell Cove, where the sky is blue, the sea is turquoise and the sand is golden.

Except that the bakery is up for sale and her fiancé Sam's more interested in bikes than their relationship. When Meg receives shocking news about her family, he's on a cycling tour and ignoring her calls - and posting selfies on Facebook with a female cyclist he looks far too cosy with...

Luckily the bakery's estate agent, Nathan, is understanding and funny, and as the summer goes on an unexpected friendship blossoms. When the bakery is given a second lease of life under a mysterious new owner, Meg realises a change might be exactly what she needs too.

Will Meg find the happy-ever-after she dreams of in Seashell Cove?

An uplifting, laugh-out-loud rom com that will make you dream of romantic days at the beach. Perfect for fans of Debbie Johnson, Holly Martin and Jenny Oliver.
