A beautiful Cornish setting, a chaotic family, a woman who's had enough of romance - or has she?The trouble with secrets is that you can't guess what the consequences will be . . .Lainey has lost everything. Luckily one little fib (OK, quite a big fib) helps nail her dream job. Soon she's living in a stunning house by the sea, fending off obsessed fans for a retired - if far-from-retiring - actor and organising his charming but chaotic family. It's definitely worth the challenge of keeping her secret.At least Lainey isn't looking for love. It's time for a break from all that. And yet . . . Seth, the actor's grandson, really is rather attractive. There's growing chemistry and a definite connection between them. But how would he react if he knew she hadn't been honest with him?Lainey's not the only one with a secret, though. Seth has one of his own. And everything's about to start unravelling . . .

    3.5/5 ⭐
    I really enjoyed this book , it was so heartwarming, I did think it was a little bit slow , and a bit confusing at first ,which didn't make me feel a whole lot of emotions until the very last 20 pages of the book but nonetheless I am glad I read it , there were so many cute and sweet scenes. Despite the low star rating it might be one of my favourite books i read in 2021

    I like reading it since it also has the Guy MCs POV but still, the plot is cliché. But i still loved it
