Review: The Honeymoon

The Honeymoon The Honeymoon by Tina Seskis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Jemma is on her honeymoon. She is staying in a five star luxury resort in The Maldives which should be paradise but one evening her husband goes missing, but where has he gone? Suddenly, everyone on the island is a suspect and Jemma doesn't know how she can trust.

Initially I couldn't stand Jemma, I thought she was selfish and overbearing, and I disagreed with a decision she made at the start of the story, but as the plot unfolded, I realised that she was being used and I ended up feeling sorry for her.

The twist at the end made me gasp, as in my head I thought through every scenario except the one in the story!

The description of The Maldives was brilliant and I found myself googling holidays there!!

If you liked Girl On A Train, or Behind Closed Doors, you'll love this story.

I was provided with a free copy of this book from Netgalley for an honest review.

REVIEW: Moonlight Over Studland Bay by Della Galton

  Moonlight Over Studland Bay – Della Galton published by Boldwood Books Samantha Jones works as an audio typist for a local company in Dorset. However, it’s not her dreams job. She wanted to devote, and expand, Purbeck Pooches, her pet sitting service. When best friend (and housemate) Abby has a baby boy Sam’s priorities change and she realises she wants more from her life. Does she want life to continue as it is or does she want to look for the perfect sperm donor – on a drunken evening Abby and Sam draw up the perfect "daddy" list. Sam’s world is soon rocked when her boss Rex accuses her of moonlighting and her parents who have run a B&B locally for years make a shock revelation. I’m going to say it from the start…I loved this book! Sam is a relatable character who knows what she wants from life, but she doesn’t want to upset, hurt or trample on people to get it. She’s just an all-round good egg!! There were times in the book when Abby made me laugh but a...
