Summary

The perfect feel-good listen from the million-copy bestselling author. Guaranteed to give you all the feels and put a big, fat smile on your face! ❤️

Ella Farrell has reached breaking point. Shattered by her job and her boyfriend’s recent betrayal, she grabs her stuff and flees down the coast. When her car breaks down a few miles short of Cornwall, she’s astonished by what she finds. Not on any map, the tiny seaside village of Starshine Cove is too perfect for words. A cobbled lane lined with pretty, thatched cottages slopes towards a pristine white beach… has she finally lost it, or is this place for real?

Spotting a little café perched on the edge of the cove, Ella settles into a slice of homemade raspberry cheesecake and finds herself charmed by Connie, the café’s chatty, Dolly Parton-lookalike owner. And, as days unexpectedly turn into weeks, Ella warms to the quirky seaside village and its residents, especially the stunning Jake, landlord of the Starshine Inn. Ella’s heart does a little flip-flop whenever their eyes meet. Jake also came to Starshine Cove by chance – was he running away from something?

Just as Ella feels the tension she’s carried for so long starting to ease, the past comes knocking on her rustic, driftwood door. Will Ella find the strength to embrace this place and forge a new path, or is Starshine Cove – and her growing connection with Jake – simply too good a dream to last?

From the beloved bestselling author of the Comfort Food Café series, this is a heart-warming tale of second chances, self-discovery, and the extraordinary healing power of a community that finds you when you need it most.

Just as wonderful as the cover suggests

I was familiar with Debbie's writing style especially from having read the Comfort Food Café series and I knew the story was likely to be full of wonderful characters and a strong community feeling and I was not wrong! This story had all those things and then some. This story definitely gave me all the feels.
I had the pleasure of listening to the audible version and Colleen did a fabulous job, as always. I was immediately drawn in to Ella's story. I felt everything she was going through, first when discovering what her boyfriend was up to and then when she went on the run and finally when she finds all those lovely people in Starshine Cove. There were many times where I found myself smiling or giggling and above all several times where I was really moved, but that may also be due to personal medical experiences of loved ones recently that it all became a bit much for me. At one point Ella said she should not be crying, and then I thought why ever not? Even I am crying now!
This is seriously a must read for readers of this genre!
