Book Description:
Dying to know more about the brooding and mysterious Flynn Carter and the secrets behind his plans for Starcross Manor?
You won’t want to miss the next spellbinding chapter in the Love Heart Lane series – where friends are there for you no matter what.
When Julia Coleman meets Flynn Carter again in the cosy village of Heartcross it can only mean trouble. Flynn might be rich, brooding and sexy, but Julia knows first-hand he’s ruthless and she plans to watch his every move.
When Julia discovers Flynn’s plans for beautiful Starcross Manor her greatest fears come true. Because Flynn’s dreams of turning Starcross into a luxury hotel could ruin Julia’s dreams…and finish off the community of Heartcross for good.
Flynn makes it clear he doesn’t want trouble, and he’s not the man Julia thinks he is. As he sets about convincing the community he’s changed, he hopes he can convince Julia to give him another chance too…

My Thoughts:
It was so good to be back in Heartcross again. This is such a wonderful village filled which such lovely characters. Whilst the village is very idyllic, the residents aren’t feeling quite the same with the threat of a new luxury hotel threatening the local businesses.
Flynn Carter, wow what a character! I could feel myself having a fictional crush coming on. I mean, a good looking, single and rich man. What isn’t there to love about him? The more we get to know him, the more in love with him I got and oh how jealous I was of Julia.
I love the authors writing style. It instantly draws me in and I can easily visualise the area as well as Julia’s B&B and Starcross Manor. If anything I felt like I had been sucked into the pages as it was all playing out in my head and I felt like I was there with the characters, experiencing everything they were for myself.
Starcross Manor is filled with hopes, dreams, friendships and romance. It is the perfect escapism that I didn’t want to end. With each book, the story focuses on a different character so that although part of a series, all the books read great as standalone’s. The chemistry between Julia and Flynn had me totally enthralled and I so enjoyed the anticipation of whether these two would become an item or not. Of course to discover that, you will need to read it for yourself. Loved it!
