ABOUT THE BOOK
She never thought she’d love again…
In her late 50s and having lived in Tenerife for over 15 years, there’s not much on the island that can surprise widowed Elspeth. Until her hotelier friend asks her to put up a guest after they’ve overbooked – and handsome Charles is suddenly staying in very close quarters.
Long buried emotions are coming back to life.
Devastated by the death of her husband four years ago, Elspeth isn’t open to new romance. Yet something about Charles pulls her in, and they grow closer together. But Charles’ holiday is drawing to a close, and Elspeth needs to decide what she really wants – and how to get it.
The perfect holiday romance for fans of Holly Martin, Sue Moorcroft and Mandy Baggot.
MY THOUGHTS
I enjoy reading Lilac Mills books. They have a minimal amount of drama and always have a hea.
The descriptions of the little town of Santiago del Teide sound so refreshing. April would be the perfect month to visit with the sun coming up over the inactive volcano, light rain and year-round greenery giving way to an abundance of flowers.
Elspeth Evans is a middle-aged woman, widowed four years. She misses her husband so much. They were everything to each other and it’s still hard to believe he’s gone.
She occasionally rents a few rooms to make ends meet. She meets Charles Brown; her first male to rent a room since her husband has passed and does it ever feel strange to have another male in her home that’s not her husband. After he arrives he seems like a nice, presentable and polite gent. As they talk and get to know each other she recommends things to do, like hiking on the beautiful trails.
A misunderstanding gets her going along as a tour guide and they have a genuinely good and fun time and conversation. Though she’s not ready to meet and mingle she has started noticing how good looking he is and enjoying his company. He’s a divorced father of 2 grown daughters.
They breakfast together and genuinely enjoy each other’s company. When it’s time for him to leave will this friendship be swept away in the tides or will the island and her have a magnetic pull on him making him return?
The author writes a fun and realistic book from the heart. Family relationships are important, and the characters draw you in to care about them.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Lilac Mills lives on a Welsh mountain with her very patient husband and incredibly sweet dog, where she grows veggies (if the slugs don’t get them), bakes (badly) and loves making things out of glitter and glue (a mess, usually). She’s been an avid reader ever since she got her hands on a copy of Noddy Goes to Toytown when she was five, and she once tried to read everything in her local library starting with A and working her way through the alphabet.
She loves long, hot summer days in the garden, and cold winter ones snuggled in front of the fire, but whatever the weather she’s usually writing or thinking about writing, with heartwarming romance and happy-ever-afters always on her mind..
