A Seagull Summer by Jane LoveringMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Meet Leah, a 34 year old scientist lacking social skills spending the summer in Devon collecting seaweed samples for a research project. Joined by her gender-fluid research assistant Tass she runs into an Australian tourist called Brendon, spending the summer researching his long lost great-grandfather.
Leah and Brendon are chalk and cheese but his persistence and good nature lead Leah into sharing secrets about her life with him, secrets she's never shared with anyone except her best friend Claire, who died a year ago from cancer.
If you want a feel-good summer romance with a few laughs and a few tears, some self-discovery and a deranged seagull called Roger, then this is definitely the read for you.
I read the firChristmas Secrets by the Seast book in this series and loved it. This is pretty much tangential to that book, the only connection is that Davin O'Riordan lives and is filming his TV series in the village below Leah's accommodation (and well maybe a bit more).
If you like STEM heroines and good-natured heroes, family issues and warm Devon summers then this is definitely the book for you.
I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
