What Becomes of the Broken Hearted by Lisa Hobman

I’m so pleased to be part of the blog tour for this wonderful book. Thanks to Aria Fiction for the copy of the book and invitation to be part of the blog tour.

About the book:

Cassie Montgomery can remember a time where her life seemed pretty perfect. By day she was setting up her own little business in her sleek penthouse apartment, and by night sleeping on gazillion-count Egyptian cotton sheets next to her fiancée, once reputed to be Glasgow’s most eligible bachelor.

And yet one ordinary, fateful day, Cassie uncovers a secret that shatters her heart into tiny pieces, and changes her life forever….

Escaping to a rural and idyllic coastal village, Cassie finds a cottage that, from the moment she steps through the rose-surrounded door, feels instantly like home.

And then there’s Mac, the cool surf teacher, who makes her question what really makes her happy – and makes her wonder if maybe, she might already have found the answer….

MY REVIEW:

I’d never read any of Lisa Hobman’s books before, and what a discovery! I’ve found a new favourite author.

Right from the start I was hooked. Her characters are fantastic. I thought from the blurb that Cassie was going to be smug and spoilt, but she wasn’t at all. She’s funny and sweet, and self-deprecating. I wished I could step into the pages of the book and tell her that Seth was no good for her!

When she moves out of the city, the setting is beautiful, and I could picture it perfectly. Her growing friendship with Mac is wonderful, but there’s so much more to this story, with quite a few twists and turns along the way.

This book is totally compelling reading, the plot and characters are superb. I enjoyed every page of it.

The ending was very original and really enchanting. I was just so sorry that the book was finished. I’ll be reading more from this author in the future.

MY RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
