Daisy Wickens has returned to Ottercombe Bay, the picturesque Devon town where her mother died when she was a girl. She plans to leave as soon as her great uncle’s funeral is over, but Great Uncle Reg had other ideas. He’s left Daisy a significant inheritance – an old building in a state of disrepair, which could offer exciting possibilities, but to get it she must stay in Ottercombe Bay for twelve whole months.
With the help of a cast of quirky locals, a few gin cocktails and a black pug with plenty of attitude, Daisy might just turn this into something special. But can she ever hope to be happy among the ghosts of her past?

My Review
I really enjoyed this story as Daisy returns to Ottercombe Bay. She's not planning on hanging around but her Great Uncle Reg's will means other plans are in store for her. There are some great characters - I especially loved Daisy's friend for being slightly batty yet not over the top. The ending is the one that the reader is rooting for throughout - no spoilers but it isn't contrived and is just perfect. All in all, a lovely summer read that will have you packing your bags for Cornwall and looking forward to drinking a gin cocktail by the sea - bliss!
