Summary

Come to the Comfort Food Café this spring for sunshine, smiles and plenty of truly scrumptious lemon drizzle cake.

My name is Willow Longville. I live in a village called Budbury on the stunning Dorset coast with my mum, Lynnie, who sometimes forgets who I am. I'm a waitress at the Comfort Food Café, which is really so much more than a café...it's my home.

For Willow, the ramshackle café overlooking the beach, together with its warmhearted community, offers friendship as a daily special and always has a hearty welcome on the menu. But when a handsome stranger blows in on a warm spring breeze, Willow soon realises that her quiet country life will be changed forever.

Curl up with this gorgeous novel and make yourself at home at the Comfort Food Café.

eek - disappointing.

I usually like the books in this series. they’re light & frothy, but also funny and endearing. Not this one though, sadly. I’m not quite sure what it was actually about, but it didn’t hold my attention. it could, however, be because the narrator of the audiobook reads it with ZERO emotion or expression. Actually, she manages to make it sound vaguely patronising, and makes no effort to inject character into the voices. really disappointed with this.

Just wonderful!

I loved this book from the start, the narration was lovely, such a beautiful story. I have loved all the comfort cafe books, but this was by far my favourite.

Heat warming

Very enjoyable listen. A wonderful fairytail, if only real life could be like this, everyone living happy ever after. A good choice in the narrator who brought the spirit of the book alive.

Very disappointed!

Really couldn’t get into this I tried till chapter 15 but was too boring it didn’t have me gripped. I guess we’re all different.

Very predictable

This wasn't for me. I mistakenly thought it was about building a business, but it was a boy meets girl story - traditional - no exceptions to the normal rules - ending obvious. There is another theme running alongside about Willow and her mother, which was totally boring for me.
I thought the whole thing was awful.
