Rumours, Romance & Rhubarb Crumble


About the Book:

When Gertie buys a run-down house 'by accident', she considers it the latest fail in a series of disasters! Her job at the Little Duck Pond Café and the friends she's made there are a big comfort – especially as temporary boss Alice seems to be going out of her way to make her life difficult. But then Gertie meets the handsome Rafe – and her life takes a turn she definitely wasn't expecting . . .

My Review:

Rumours, Romance and Rhubarb is the 45th story in the Little Duck Pond Cafe series. Each story in this series is fresh, interesting, and entertaining. The reader will be engaged from the start.

Gertie has had a challenging past few months. Cheating boyfriend, accidental home purchase, a new boss that is cold as ice. When she meets a handsome stranger in a parking lot and they click, she hopes things are going to start looking up. 

I loved coming back to this world, visiting with old characters, and meeting new ones. Rumours, Romance and Rhubarb isn't just a contemporary romance. Gertie finds herself amid some dark situations that are written with care and compassion by the author. The realism of Rosie's stories will evoke intense emotional responses. 

The author crafted a wonderful world and continues to build it and grow the characters. I enjoyed the writing style, pacing, and vivid imagery. The characters are written with depth, emotion, and realism.

I was provided with a copy of this book. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
