As someone who spent many, many hours reading Rosemunde Pilcher books as a teen/young adult, I was happy to see a new collection of short stories that I hadn’t seen or heard of before. They varied in topics from a couple celebrating their silver anniversary so the wife plans a romantic getaway for them that goes wrong to a man who has to make a choice between keeping things the same in his life or starting over in a new place with a new love. My fav was “A smile for the Bride” even though it was predictable, it was sweet and like a warm hug after a long time away.
Overall, this collection is perfect curled up with a cup of tea and a snuggle blanket. The narration was very well done, with each story having it own set of characters and voices bringing those characters to life. I would recommend this to anyone needing an escape.
Thanks to St. Martin’s Press and Netgalley for this eArc in exchange for my review.

This is a delightful book, & an even more delightful audiobook. I'm a huge fan of the author, & these stories are marvelous!
