[AD // NETGALLEY ARC]
I was so excited when I was approved for this book from NetGalley! I’ve read a few of Jessica Redland’s books previously, and loved them. Going into the book, I had no idea it was the sequel to Starry Skies Over The Chocolate Pot Café. I read Starry Skies Over The Chocolate Pot Café in December 2024, and gotten really invested in the characters, so when I realised I got to hang with Tara, Jed, and the giant house bunny Hercules again, I was utterly delighted.

This book did not disappoint. I loved it from beginning to end. I fell in love with the characters all over again, and Jessica Redland somehow manages to pull all the heart strings. (I’m not crying, YOU’RE crying!) I think Redland writes with so much love, and it really shows in this book. It’s hard not to get invested.
I’m looking forward to reading Winter Nights at the Bay Bookshop, the book that came out in December last year, and that is sitting on my Kobo to be read.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for letting me have an ARC for this brilliant book!
