Story
Summer has never been so scandalous.... When Violet moves to Swallow Beach, she inherits a small Victorian pier with an empty arcade perched on the end of it and falls in love immediately. She wants nothing more than to rejuvenate it and make it grand again - but how? When she meets hunky Calvin, inspiration strikes. What if she turned the arcade into an adult-themed arcade full of artisan shops?

Story
When their grandfather dies, Fliss and her sisters are astonished to inherit a French château! Travelling to Normandy to visit the beautiful if faded house, they excitedly make plans over delicious crêpes and local cider in the town nearby. But they soon discover the château needs major work, a huge tax bill is due...and there's a sitting tenant, Madame Charlotte Cadieux, to whom they owe a monthly allowance! Unable to sell but strapped for cash, Fliss determines to spruce up the elegant old rooms and open a B&B.

Story
Every Summer has its own story.... For Ava Fisher, the backdrop to all her sun-drenched memories - from her first taste of chocolate-dipped churros to her very first kiss - is her grandmother's summer house in the sleepy Spanish seaside town of Mariposa. Returning for one last summer, Ava throws herself into a project her grandmother would be proud of. Café Estrella - once the heart of the sleepy seaside village - now feels more ramshackle than rustic. Just like Ava, it seems it has lost its sparkle.

Frankie doesn't believe in true love. As relationships expert at popular magazine Stylife, she has learnt that dating disasters are far more common than happy-ever-afters.

Laurie is sure love at first sight doesn't exist anywhere but the movies. But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there's a moment of pure magic...and then her bus drives away. Certain they're fated to find each other again, Laurie spends a year scanning every bus stop and cafe in London for him. But she doesn't find him, not when it matters anyway. Instead they "reunite" at a Christmas party, when her best friend, Sarah, giddily introduces her new boyfriend: the man from the bus.

Fun summer read
I needed a break from the serious fiction I’d been reading. This one was a quality, fun romance. Narrator Georgia Maguire is really good and adds to the enjoyment of the audiobook. If you want a happy escape, well written and emotionally satisfying - definitely worth a listen. Just don’t expect anything deep and intellectual - but that’s what made it a great escape.

Summer Story
A usual sort of story where the end can be predicted by the beginning - but a reasonable story for all that. Some of the ‘love’ scenes are a bit ‘teen mag’ stuff and the characters stereotypical.

The spirit of a Greek adventure.
A really charming and interesting story. I couldn’t turn it off as I was agog at what the story would turn up next. Excellent narration and most enjoyable tale because it wasn’t fleshed out but kept to the point. Highly recommended for an easy enjoyable read.

Boring!
This is the worst book I have listened to by a mile. I persevered expecting it to get better (it didn’t) and I was so happy when it was finally over! The love scenes between Jesse and Winnie went on and on and were so boring and unnecessary - I kept skipping 30 seconds, then another and another and another...and still it’d be droning on. So much time was given to that part of the story that the interesting bits were skirted over. Seriously, don’t bother!

Awful
I really tried with this one but it was terrible. Awful characters and terrible storyline. So predictable and dull.
Hated it so much and could not continue after a few chapters.
