The Vintage Flower Van on Love Heart Lane by Christie Barlow

 

 
 

Synopsis:

 

Flowers are Florrie Appleton’s life, so when her beloved Aunt Ada passes, and she’s swiftly issued with an eviction notice and told to vacate Rose Cottage, shutter her Vintage Flower Van business, and leave behind Ada’s gorgeous gardens, she’s devastated.

But Florrie is not one to go down without a fight, even if the developer she’s taking on is run by Tom Houston, the man who broke her heart at uni all those years ago.

Tom may have had the upper hand then, but Florrie has the whole of Heartcross behind her now, and as history has shown, there’s nothing this tiny Scottish hamlet can’t accomplish when they band together…

Love Heart Lane – where friends are there for you no matter what.

 

Review: 


 
I was delighted to be back one more time at Heartcross village, because the setting is charming and the beauty and the friendliness is in the air.

The Vintage Flower Van On Love Heart Lane tells Florrie's story. When her great aunt Ada dies, Florrie has to save her beloved garden and the van where she sold her beautiful flowers for all her life from some soulless property developers, that planned to destroy everything.

I liked to follow Florrie in this journey. She is resourceful, she never quit, she is beautiful inside and out, and she loves her family memories so much she is determined to do whatever she can to save them. It was also so good to see this little community to come together and fight the petty businessmen.

I recommend this new book from Christie Barlow
because she manages, thanks to her writing, to get you involved in her world so much it seems real.

Coming Home to Starr's Fall by Kate Hewitt

        Synopsis:   Welcome to the town of Starr’s Fall, where Autumn can feel like it goes on forever, and two people have a chance to fall in love… The leaves are falling, with a crispness to the air, along with the scents of coffee and pumpkin spice, past a half-empty street of shuttered storefronts and a bandstand that has seen better days… Just like the whole town of Starr’s Fall, thinks Laurie Ellis – as she and her beloved dog Max head to collect the store keys. Maybe she has seen better days, too, but she’s certainly ready for a new start—and to leave her past behind. Still Laurie wonders whether she made a terrible mistake in coming to lovable but shabby Starr’s Fall. Will she even find customers for her pet store and bakery, never mind a community to welcome and accept her? Not according to Joshua Reilly , the handsome but grumpy manager of the bookstore across the road, who claims he’s never heard of anything so ridiculous as a bakery for dogs. But Laurie rema
