Book Review, The Sweetest Thing (Talyton St George) by Cathy Woodman

 


The Sweetest Thing

By Cathy Woodman


The third novel in Cathy Woodman's hugely popular Talyton St George series.

Each book in the Talyton St George series can be read as a standalone novel, but when Cathy first had the idea of writing about a vet practice, she intended it to be a trilogy about two vets - Maz and Alex. Their names are in brackets to show which books feature their story. All the other books have new characters, although Maz and Alex always crop up now and again.




Cupcakes and romance - what could possibly be better? 

Oh, this book was just so scrumptious. After an emotionally draining divorce, Jennie Copeland decides to make a fresh start in a new house, in a new village, in a new county. Her children are less than enthusiastic about the move, but that does not deter her, she is determined to make this new life and her new business work. What she had not countered on was her son's determination to make things as difficult for her as he possibly can and her next-door neighbour who was far too good-looking for his own good, and totally out of her league.

There was nothing not to adore about this story; it is a feel-good story that is perfect for reading in the garden on a warm summers day. I thought the characterisation was superb, the romance is sweet, and the story compelling. This is one of those books that I know I am going to read again and again.

I picked up this book in Waterstones but it can also be found on  Amazon.
