Description
He never meant to stay.
He certainly never meant to fall in love…
Summer Island off the coast of Norway was the place London chef Jack Greene should have been from. He’s an outsider in the community that should have been his family, and now he’s setting foot on the strange land he has inherited for the first time.
Ninni Toft, his nearest neighbour, has come to the island to mend her broken heart. With her wild spirit and irrepressible enthusiasm, she shows city-boy Jack the simple pleasures of island life – and what it means to belong. To a place. To a people. To one person in particular…
Home is where the heart is, but is Jack’s heart with the career he left behind in London, or on the wind-swept shores of Summer Island, with Ninni?

A charming read set on a Norwegian island. The unique setting was really lovely and a breath of fresh air. The character's lives were interesting and I liked the concept of Jack returning to a place where he could have grown up and lived a completely different life. Also, love a dog in a story! This was summery, light and fun.

This was such a good book! If you are a fan of the books from Julie Caplin, you will love this!! It makes you want to move to Norway and embrace a new way of life. I couldn’t put this book down and it filled me with warmth!

“Summer Island” was a sweet romance about following your heart. A perfect book for a lazy summer weekend. Well written and it gave a glimpse into life on the islands of Norway.
Marianne N, Reviewer
Absolutely charming! A delightful romantic escape to a small island off the coast of Norway. Likable characters, strong sense of place, and a gentle romance makes this an enjoyable read.
Thanks to netgalley/author/publisher for an advance copy. Highly recommended.
Danielle D, Reviewer
I absolutely adored the setting and story of this book. I now yearn to travel to Norway to experience the people, food and culture.
From Jack and Ninni’s first encounter I was hooked. Ninni is a no nonsense kind of woman just out of a bad break-up and doesn’t take well to the new Englishman, Jack, in town. Jack is an out of place chef who has just inherited land on the island.
This is a perfect book to read when you are looking for something light, romantic and want to get away from the everyday hustle and bustle of life.
I want to thank NetGalley, the author and publisher for the e-ARC of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are honest, my own and left voluntarily.
