![Annie's Summer by the Sea: The perfect laugh out loud romantic comedy by [Liz Eeles]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51lNToHSJiL.jpg)
When Annie Trebarwith unexpectedly inherits Tregavara House, her much-loved family home atop the cliffs of Salt Bay, she begins to wonder: with all the good friends and warm memories she’s made in the village, could it be her forever home?
Luckily her gorgeous Poldark-lookalike boyfriend, Josh Pasco, has exactly the same idea. High on the Cornish cliffs he gets down on one knee, and Annie has everything she’s ever dreamed of.
But when a summer storm causes catastrophic damage to the beautiful but aging house, Annie and Josh are faced with tumbling tiles and a massive repair bill – and a roof that’s leaked straight onto her wedding gown…
Can the Salt Bay community save Annie’s house and her wedding – and give Annie the happy-ever-after she’s always wanted?
Fans of Jenny Oliver, Cathy Bramley and Debbie Johnson will love this hilarious and heart-warming romantic comedy!

I heard many great raving reviews from this book! Usually, I would normally post the ARCs from Bookouture but as you can see from the date of publishing, this was published in 2018, when I was still a banker and reading books seemed to be a chore to me back then, as I always came home dead tired. But I like this book cover and I have always wanted to read this book, and finally got the chance to read the book!
This is actually a series–with Annie moving to Salt Bay from London. Here, in this book, she unexpectedly inherits the family house in Salt Bay when her great-aunt Alice left her the will. But her cousin, Toby also wants the house as well, as he plans to sell them later on. Annie gets engaged to her long time boyfriend Josh and while planning for the wedding, rekindling friendships and old romances and her in vain attempt of having a B&B.
I thought this book was great. A cozy and warm read, completely told from the Annie’s point of view. The descriptions of Salt Bay, a small town in Cornwall is so good that I felt like I was in that part of town. The plot itself is generally interesting and I like Annie’s relationship with her sister Storm and also her relationship with the townsfolks. Annie herself is a likable character as well and I really enjoyed reading from her perspective. Despite the fact that the story was predictable and would know that there would be a happily ever after, it was nonetheless enjoyable to read. There were some funny parts in the book that will make you laugh out loud!
Overall, I truly enjoyed the book–a warm cozy romance novel that will keep you up all night–worth four and a half stars!
