I love Phillipa Ashley books, although I don’t always get chance to fit them in to my reading and when Hana Sparkes sent me a surprise copy of Phillipa’s latest book, Second Chance Summer I was delighted. Even better, Second Chance Summer is my latest My Weekly magazine online review and I’m thrilled to share details today.

You’ll find other posts featuring Phillipa here on Linda’s Book Bag, including reviews and extracts.

Published by Penguin on 6th June 2024, Second Chance Summer is available for purchase through the links here.

Second Chance Summer

From the moment Lily Harper arrives at a remote retreat on the breath-taking Scilly Isles, she is itching to get back to civilisation – and her thriving business.

Slowing down simply isn’t in her vocabulary, and so she quickly clashes with the gorgeous but dour Sam who runs the retreat.

Just as Lily is about to give up and leave, disaster strikes, and she is involved in an incident that changes her perspective on everything.

Lily is no longer sure she wants to return to the life she thought she loved. But will she have the courage to give the retreat, and Sam, a second chance?

My Review of Second Chance Summer

My full review of Second Chance Summer  can be found on the My Weekly website here.

However, here I can say that Second Chance Summer is absolutely delightful. It transports the reader to Stark and provides them with an uplifting, warm and wonderful story that is every bit as good as taking a holiday.
