After living her
dream life in the Big Apple, Rosie unexpectedly finds herself back in
her home town of Scarborough, where she is now running a run-down
old-fashioned Victorian hotel. The hotel is filled with its own
community of permanent residents who are used to the laid-back and
gently atmosphere of the hotel. A far-cry from the hustle and bustle
of New York City.
All is set to change
when the hotel is bought by two eccentric American brothers, who even
though have never been to see the hotel decide to make some very big
changes and transition manager Rory comes in to oversee the
renovation.
With a cast of
colourful characters and a lively and witty narration to the book you
are in for an entertaining read. I like the way the story has the
theme of two story-lines from the past and present running parallel
along side each other. A perfect beach, or by the pool holiday read.
I also have a soft spot for Scarborough as it is my home town and
having spent time myself in New York, I think Scarborough is just as
charming and charismatic and you get that feel from the book.
