About this audiobook
The brand new series from Holly Hepburn, perfect for fans of Cathy Bramley and Katie Fforde. Originally published as novellas, this paperback contains all fours parts of the story from irresistible beginning to heart-warming conclusion.
Eve has always lived on Ennisfarne, an idyllic island just off the coast of Northumberland and only accessible when tides are low. There she runs a bar overlooking Darling Cove, a heavenly horseshoe-shaped beach named after her seafaring ancestors, whose links to the Farne Islands stretch back centuries.
Logan is a famous photographer desperate to evade the limelight after a difficult break-up. Renting a cottage from Eve, he chooses Ennisfarne in the hope of anonymity but is immediately spellbound by its natural beauty.
The pair don’t get off to the best start, butting heads over Eve’s adorable but boisterous Chocolate Labrador. But when Logan's true identity is revealed, Eve realises her new tenant isn’t quite the man she thought he was. Is it too late to start again or will Logan’s island escape be over almost before it’s begun?
The brand new novel from Holly Hepburn, author of Coming Home to Brightwater Bay, will whisk you away to a sublime seaside retreat you’ll never want to leave.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Refreshing light and fun story line, a cozy read! Have you googling the english countryside…
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5To predictable.
I felt there was too much thinking and not enough dialogue - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5My favourite character in this book was the setting itself. The author nailed it for me. The romantic plot was pleasantly predictable and well-crafted but I most loved being swept away by the storms and calms of this lovely island. So clever of the author to let us view it through the contrasting viewpoints of one who had known and loved it from birth and another who was seeing it for the first time with all the freshness if discovery. Brilliant idea to make him a photographer. This allowed the author full rein to let us see, hear, smell and feel that setting in all its richness through the sensual and expert spirit of a creative genius. I will sleep tonight hearing the wind in the marram grass on the dunes. As one who lives in an isolated coastal community here in New Zealand it all rang true to me and made a refreshing change from the endless stories with dull city settings. I also loved the story’s link to the Victorian heroine Grace Darling. It sent me scurrying to Wikipedia to remind myself of her story which I first heard in early childhood. There was even an underwater scene with seals and an obviously sentient octopus. Loved that touch. This book was breath of fresh sea air. I’m just sorry it had to end.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This series, left me wanting more! I absolutely loved listening to it, loved reading it! All time favourite contemporary romance! The story is beautiful!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Not as good as some of her past books but would love to see a continuance of their travels
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The ending was very quick and predictable. Would have loved an epilogue.
