Description

We have the warmth and depth of emotion that we are accustomed to in Jill’s novels but there is also a modern spark to this storyline too. Who has become quite isolated from the world around him but with Lou in his life, encouraging and supporting him, this begins to change and more so with the arrival of Mr Oates…a furry, four footed kindred spirit. We are taken on a wonderfully heart-warming journey of love and friendships with the main character Lou. Handsome and charming, with women falling at his feet, Lou is determined that she will not become another notch on his bedpost. I received a free copy of Promise Me, by Jill Mansell, from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Haar omgang met de knorrige en botte maar eenzame Edgar maakt je vrolijk, ze zorgt ervoor dat hij weer onderdeel van de gemeenschap wordt en bezorgt hem echte blijdschap door een nieuwe vriend op zijn pad te brengen: de lastige hond Captain Oates, die voor grappige en ontroerende momenten zorgt en de held van het verhaal wordt.Not forgetting an equally grumpy chihuahua to give Edgar a run for his money, and her best friend who may finally be about to get a break from an unlikely source. When he offers Lou the job she explains that she already is caring for a woman in the town she lives in. There’s laughter, love and friendships abundance in this gorgeous book with a few moments in between that made me tear up a tiny bit (it wasn’t tiny, I cried like a baby realising it has to grow up and eventually pay bills). Heel veel meer woorden zijn er niet aan vuil te maken, het is gewoon een heerlijk feelgood-boek om bij weg te dromen en niet te veel over na te denken. Hoe voorspelbaar ze ook zijn, het is steeds weer een feestje om haar boeken te lezen en zo dus ook ‘Het zonnetje in huis’.

Taking the job means she's living close to old school friends, including the gorgeous Remy, in the tiny, picturesque Cotswolds village of Foxwell. Jill has always been one of my favourite authors and I personally think Promise Me is her best book to date!

Sometimes you just need to sit back and relax and travel to a small rural Foxwell Town and take care of a grumpy old man and move into his lavish home, with the promise that once he passes away, he'd leave his entire inheritance to you.

The romance is plentiful and a rollercoaster of emotions for many added to that we have strong friendships too. And along the way, you re-discover the meaning of friendship, re-kindle first crushes, and genuinely learn that despite the first impressions someone makes on you, everyone is capable of change and no matter how unsavory their behavior may be, deserves a little bit of kindness and happiness. Het was lang geleden dat ik een feelgood had gelezen en wat heb ik ervan genoten om het wel te doen! A witty, heartwarming story of love, life and second chances set in the idyllic Cotswolds, from the glorious Jill Mansell.

De personages waren heerlijk, hadden allen een geheel eigen karakter en de verhaallijnen waren interessant. Finally it was a book that I wanted to get back to, that I felt involved in characters' lives, so brilliantly written, light - hearted and also a little tear - jerker.

De warme, vloeiende, luchtige, beeldende en vlotte schrijfstijl van Jill Mansell zorgt zorgt voor uren puur leesplezier en dit fijne en meeslepende verhaal zal je feelgoodhart als een zonnetje verwarmen! If you’re looking for a cozy book that gets you right in the feels this month then definitely pick this one up when it’s out on the 19th Jan! This really was a captivating read that held my attention the whole way through and there were predictable and unpredictable parts in equal measure which just made the book such a joy to read.There are many different characters and storylines to get accustomed to that I am not actually sure who the main character was supposed to be even though the story is apparently about Lou. I was championing the outcome of this book and I was so pleased that the author chose to end the book the way she did, I do love a dose of Karma! I’ve worked as a carer and have come across many grumpy old men like Edgar in my time and knew right from their first meeting that they would end up being friends.
