I received a copy of this book from Boldwood Books via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
My Thoughts…
Emotional, humorous and full of poignant secrets, this story takes place over a summer’s day told from four main viewpoints. The characters are vibrant, and their stories interesting. As the day progresses, the stories intertwine with some surprising revelations. The dialogue is peppered with humour. The family and friendship dynamics are believable.
It’s an engaging read with characters that are easy to empathise with. I couldn’t put it down. The day ends with drama and forgiveness and the epilogue a year later gives the story a satisfying conclusion.

Shari Low is the #1 bestselling author of over 25 novels, including One Day In Summer and My One Month Marriage and a collection of parenthood memories called Because Mummy Said So. She lives near Glasgow and her first title for Boldwood was My One Month Marriage in January 2020.
