My thoughts…
It’s no secret that Amelia Henley is the new pen name of Louise Jensen. Louise has stepped sideways from her usual genre of writing Psychological Thrillers into the world of Romance with this Women’s fiction debut. And what a treat it is. I was worried, I won’t lie, I even delayed reading this for a little while because I absolutely adore Louise’s writing but embarking on a new genre is big especially for an author who is so well known for her gift of writing an epic thriller. I didn’t need to worry. This book was a five star read almost instantly. It had everything you’d look for in a contemporary love story and more – because it had the benefit of Louise’s extensive experience whilst also at the same time becoming almost a genre of its own…
I can never fully do this book justice in a short review and I won’t attempt to, it’s just not always possible to convey how incredible a book is without you reading it yourself to understand. But what I will say is that this is a rare treat. A beautiful debut novel but from someone who is incredibly experienced and talented with words, who we know we already love from her existing genre. What could be more perfect? If a book makes your eyes sting it’s a success!
