About this listen

From the top 20 bestselling author of Dreaming Under An Island Skye.

'An uplifting and adventurous romance which reminds us that all that glitters is definitely not gold!' Heidi Swain

'I loved the book. It’s a captivating story with a relatable heroine and beautifully vivid settings. A perfect holiday read!' Darcie Boleyn

Global box office sensation, Ruby Locke, is a long way from her Yorkshire roots. Together with her fiancé, movie heartthrob Tyler Harrison, they are Hollywood’s new glitterati.

Overnight, Ruby’s life implodes when her social media accounts are hacked with a multitude of vile posts, turning her into an international pariah. Even Tyler breaks off their engagement.

Confused and heartbroken, Ruby escapes to the beautiful island of Sicily to avoid the media scrutiny. With only a Yorkshire Terrier to comfort her, Ruby is befriended by a handsome, mysterious neighbour and slowly begins to heal. But are his inentions true?

When her Sicilian hideaway is compromised, Ruby is once again forced to relocate, this time to the stunning Isle of Skye, off the West Coast of Scotland. Here Ruby is left to question who wants to destroy her career, and also if the celebrity lifestyle is really for her...

Love the way the series interlink. I had to read them all twice, as I missed the characters!
It also deals with loss, grief, mental health, self love, romance, friendship and unhealthy toxic behaviour and that loses out to respect, morals and values. As for Eilidh Beaton, perfect and could listen to her forever. Thanks

Heartwarming

I love Elidih Beaton as a narrator, she always makes the book really come to life. Her accents make it clear who is speaking, and she is so easy to listen to.

The story itself was very enjoyable. I really felt like I knew the characters and locations as they were so well described. The main character did really frustrate me at times though, as she struggled to communicate sometimes and was very harsh to Mitch at times even though he welcomed her into his life and homes without question. The message that carried throughout the book about social media and the press I feel is an extremely important one, and it is cleverly done in the story.

Note: this is the second book of a series of four, which I didn’t see mentioned anywhere. The first explores Jules and Reid’s story. I accidentally listened to the last two books first, which spoilt some of the elements of the stories in the first two.

Fabulous narrator and important message!

A lovely story beautifully written and wonderfully read. The perfect combination. It makes you want to be there, be part of something that you know isn’t real but because of the combination your mind makes it out to be. My only regret is that it’s over-more to come later-hopefully!
