****4 stars
She's back! Am an avid fan of Mansell. Found her books several years back and chewed through them all quickly. Love her quick wit and dialogue as well as real characters. One of my favorite attributes of her writing is her multiple characters, and interaction between. There never seems to be a lull in the book and you are always reading eagerly forward to see what comes next. This was a welcome escape as 2013 hasn't taken a great start for me. Please keep them coming :)
Book Jacket Summary:
An irresistible, heart-warming novel from the much-loved author of numerous Sunday Times bestsellers, including A WALK IN THE PARK and TO THE MOON AND BACK.. Dexter Yates loves his fun, care-free London life; he has money, looks and girlfriends galore. But everything changes overnight when his sister dies, leaving him in charge of her eight-month-old daughter Delphi. How is he ever going to cope? Comic-strip artist Molly Hayes lives in the beautiful Cotswold village of Briarwood. When it comes to relationships, she has a history of choosing all the wrong men. Leaving the city behind, Dex moves to Briarwood - a much better place to work on his parenting skills - and he and Molly become neighbours. There's an undeniable connection between them. But if Dexter's going to adapt, he first has a lot to learn about Molly, about other people's secrets...and about himself.
