Book Description
Lottie Fanshawe has become an expert over the years at banishing dark memories of the past – but
now, the time has come to sell Sycamore House, her old family home, which she walked away from a
decade ago. With beloved brother Dylan now a missing person – a victim of their past – there's only
Lottie left to organise the sale. Being back in Sunnybrook is the last thing she needs, and her plan is
to get in and out as speedily as possible. But finding a welcome at the Little Duck Pond Cafe helps
Lottie in more ways than she could have imagined. And then there are her growing feelings for dark-
eyed Liam Westerbrook to grapple with . . .
BLOG TOUR REVIEW
Review for 'A Kiss Under The Stars' by Rosie Green.
Read and reviewed for Rosie Green and Rachel's Random Resources Tours.
Publication date 1st August 2023.
This is the second book I have read by this author. It is also the twenty ninth book in Little Duck Pond Cafe Series. I have previously read 'The Lottery Win' (book 28 in this series) which I would also highly recommend.
This novel consists of 30 chapters and an epilogue. The chapters are short to in length so easy to read 'just one more chapter' before bed...OK, I know yeah right, but still just in case!
'A Kiss Under The Stars' discusses some topics that may upset some readers or may not be suitable for others. I like to point this out ahead of time in my reviews so you can judge if this book is for you or not. In this book Rosie discusses abandonment, care homes and alcoholism.
OMG!!! I absolutely LOVED this gorgeous pageturner and I cannot WAIT for the next book in this series to come out!! I have already added the other 27 books to my Amazon wish list and cannot wait to go back to the start and read this series from the beginning. I also cannot wait to see what happens next in Lottie's life so am hoping to meet her and several of the other characters again in the next book in this series. This book was gorgeous and the rest of the books in this series are just guaranteed to be just as stunning!! This book is a fantastic fun read that I just could not put down. It is filled with friendships, family, fun, cake, ducks, suspense, romance, mystery, love, joy, sadness and absolutely everything you could ever ask for in a gorgeous page turner!!! Rosie has done an amazing job of weaving the dark subjects of alcoholism, care homes and family loss into a gorgeous, unputdownable storyline that I fell in love with and I can guarantee you will too!!!
Get ready to escape mundane life, renovate a home, eat cake and fall in love with this gorgeous page turner!!!

It is one of those books that are very easy to read and perfect for any reading situations whether you are laying on a beach or curled up in front of a fire. It is an absolutely ideal read for anyone who is looking for a fantastic read that will have you hooked from beginning to end. I absolutely LOVED the realism of this storyline which made it so easy to picture everything that was going on which had been helped by Rosie's fantastic evocative writing skills. I cannot wait to get hooked into more of Rosie's books and can't wait to go back to the first book in this series! This is definitely one of those books that will turn a frown upside down and make life seem a lot brighter. It is packed with fun, Friendship, cake, pregnancy problems, family, secrets, romance, heartbreak, friendship, laughter and everything you could ask for in a fantastic feel good book. I absolutely adored all the different mini storylines going on in this book from Lottie's house renovations to Parisian cake bakes, missing family and growing romances and friendships. It is a rollercoaster ride of emotions from heartbreak to happiness, jealousy to sadness, devastation to bliss and everything you could ask for in a stunning storyline. Rosie's evocative writing skills drew me deep into the book bringing the atmosphere and characters to life all around me. It is one of those books that I could not put down.

Well done Rosie on an absolutely stunning and perfect book in a gorgeous series!!! I fell in love with the first book I read in this series 'The Lottery Win' and I cannot wait to get stuck into all the rest of the books in this amazing series. Grab the tissues and clear your schedules as this book is addictive and a rollercoaster ride of emotions!!!
Although this is the twenty ninth book in the series you will have absolutely no problems reading it without the others. Any details or events that have previously happened are mentioned in just the right amount of detail to let a new reader know what has happened and yet not too much to bore a previous reader.
The characters were all an eclectic mix and each one of them were realistic and strong. I was completely invested in them all. It also makes them more realistic, believable and made me feel even more for them than I normally would. I absolutely loved Lottie who is such a genuine, lovable character who goes from one extreme when it comes to her family. My heart absolutely went out to her after she went from tragedy to tragedy growing up and even as an adult was constantly having bad luck. I really did feel all the same emotions as she did from heartbreak to elation, despair to excitement, nervousness to devastation, regret to bliss. Every single thing she did made her all the more realistic and loveable, although I did feel like shouting at her a few times, well actually I admit I did once or twice and got a few strange looks!!! Rosie's fantastic and evocative writing skills makes you feel the same as the characters were. I also fell in love with Liam who is such a genuine, lovable and hunky guy. I had previously 'met' him in book 28 in this series 'The Lottery Win' and I loved meeting him and getting to know more about him. I was over the moon to meet some of the previous characters that I met in 'The Lottery Win' again including Marcus, Bertha and Krystle along with all the new characters that I loved meeting. I loved the fact that Fen was pregnant with twins in this book as it reminded me of when I was pregnant with my twins Hunter and Ryder although my partner didn't have symptoms like poor Rob in this book 😂. Each of the characters are memorable and unique in their own ways and they are a group of people that I wont be forgetting any time soon and cannot wait to meet time and time again!!
Pick up this book and get lost in this absolutely gorgeous page turner!
Congratulations Rosie on another absolutely stunning read that I just could not put down!!! Another gorgeous book in this stunning series and I cannot wait to read more of your previous and future books. I would absolutely love to see this book turned into a movie!!! This is the exact reason you are on my favourite author list and here's to your next success 🥂
Overall an unputdownable, gorgeous, STUNNING page turning book filled with cake, family, ducks, tears, drama, romance, secrets, fun, laughter, friendship and so much more!!
200 pages.
This book is just £2.99 to purchase on kindle or free with kindle unlimited via Amazon, at time of review which I think is an absolute bargain for this book!!!
Rated 5/5 (I LOVED it ) on Goodreads, Instagram, Amazon UK and Amazon US and on over 30 Facebook pages plus my blog on Facebook.
