Goodreads:  How far should you go to keep a secret?

No-one ever accused Sophie Campbell of being a coward. From caving trips to rooftop pranks, it appeared nothing could hold her back, especially once she landed a dream job promising travel all over the world.

But Sophie’s jet-setting lifestyle is not what it seems and she’s been spending more time in the quiet English village of Saffron Sweeting than she cares to admit. When her beloved Great Aunt Wol dies suddenly, Sophie loses one of the few people who truly know her. As friends, family and an old flame gather for the funeral, questions soon follow. Worse, Sophie finds herself increasingly attracted to the man most likely to expose her secrets. Can she manage to guard her past, yet finally follow her long-held dream?


Kritters Thoughts:  A prequel to Saving Saffron Sweeting and it centers around a different character.  Sophie has a secret that she has been keeping for a lot of people and her secret may just come out.

I absolutely adored Saving Saffron Sweeting and for some reason this one moved real slow in the beginning for me and finally picked up at the end.  I felt as though we spent a lot of time reading about her secret and her fear and how it kept her from doing what she really wants to do and I would have loved more of the story to take place after her secret comes out and she gets over her fears.

I think I would have preferred reading this one first, but as Saving Saffron Sweeting released first, I read them in order of release.


Rating: definitely a good read, but can't do two in a row
