This was the ideal book to read after a dose of two or three rather strong detective novels!
Set in Trewenham the setting is idyllic. The history of the characters if turbulent but that is a previous story. Right now we have the heir to the Castle being the apple of his parents eyes, then we have a fairytale wedding of Matt and Finula, we have the sad breakup of Christie and her husband almost on the eve of their setting up a new home and then devastating news of Sebastian's illness and how to cope with it, then Daniel facing his marriage breaking up and fighting a desperate custody battle for his little girl Emily.
These are the stories which form the backdrop of this book and each one is dealt with in a way which is very pleasant to read.
It is a light hearted read, though the subjects of child custody, divorce, multiple sclerosis are not happy subjects. All dealt with very well.
I enjoyed the story telling in this novel.

Sounds like the right book at the right time. Thanks for sharing!
