Dearest Nell, if you’re reading this letter, I’m already gone. You’re my best friend in the world, and as my last request I’m asking you to lay me to rest hundreds of miles away, in my crazy gorgeous, totally one-of-a-kind hometown of Tansy Falls. I know you’re a born-and-bred city girl, but hear me out. After first losing Adrian, and then me… I know your heart is hurting, Nell. I think you’ll find that you need Tansy Falls as much as I do.

So, I’ve got it all planned out. For two weeks, you’ll be staying at the sweet, local inn and every day you’ll be trying something new. And if you follow my instructions to the letter, you may discover there’s more to my story than you think. A surprise something… or someone at the end of it? Only you can find out!

Some last advice before you set off, Nell. Don’t forget your sturdy boots and make sure to give Boomer, the inn’s resident dog, a belly rub from me. Stay well away from former quarterback Brody Knott (boy, do I have some stories about him!). And finally, let the future bring what it brings. While Tansy Falls may look small, I know better than anyone that new beginnings can be found in all kinds of places. That little Vermont town you’d never heard of? Well, it might suddenly begin to feel just like coming home…

If you love feel-good love stories by ReaAnne Thayne, Debbie Macomber and Robyn Carr, you’ll adore this gorgeous, heart-warming novel about starting over.

I just loved this book!!!! I don’t have any other words to describe this wonderful gem of book–a heartwarming and a bit emotional book that will keep you hooked into the story from the first page itself!!!

Nell was devastated at the death of her best friend, Megan. But before dying, Megan has final wish–she wanted Nell to shatter her ashes in Mount Maverick, located in the small town called Tansy Falls in the state of Vermont. And she has written a letter to Nell–with requests that Nell must visit Tansy Falls and visit all the places Megan had visited during her teenage years. Nell decides to fulfill Megan’s wishes by taking a flight from London and reaching Tansy Falls. And while staying at the inn, she makes new friends–Darlene who owns the Fiske store where Megan used to work, and meeting Mallory who was one of Megan’s friends. And also she meets Jackson who is residing the house where Megan used to live with her aunt and uncle. As Nell develops close bonds and relationships, she is beginning to feel Tansy Falls as a part of her home…

I truly enjoyed reading the book. The first thing that I got attracted to this book was the cover–it was pretty and cozy looking. And I wasn’t disappointed when the story was equally good as the book cover! The characters in the book are all likable and I had a fun time getting to know these characters. The settings and the descriptions of the town felt realistic and as a reader, I felt I was in Tansy Fall with Nell, setting out on an adventure of lifetime and making new friends. The ending was unexpected and really good that I cannot wait for the second book of this series to come out soon!

Worth five stars! Many thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the ARC. The review is based on my honest opinion only.

Cate made the most of her university degree in Anglo-Saxon Literature by embarking on a career running errands on TV shows including Who Wants to be a Millionaire. After narrowly missing out on the chance to become a weather presenter, she moved into the world of magazine journalism and then ghostwriting, working on novels and autobiographies for a host of celebrities. She has written two best-selling romantic comedies – Just Haven’t Met You Yet and More Than a Feeling – and a festive novel, The Christmas Guest, under the name Daisy Bell. Cate lives in London with her husband and two children, but escapes to her family home in the Vermont mountains whenever she can.
