Insecurities of a woman in a relationship which she had faith turns out to be a rollercoaster ride for her subsequently. This is not your usual cookie cutter romance. Recommended for pleasure evangelists.

I was hoping for some good character development for Joe but by the sounds of it, the reader will probably be disliking him for most of the book.

what about him that makes you agree to dislike it? It is nice to see unity in the way people perceive what is to be liked and not so much

Another Summer by Sue Lilley is about heat of passion and the bitter sting of betrayal from an exciting new voice in Women’s Fiction.Evie stood transfixed by his mouth and the thought of what it was going to do. She felt dizzy and tried to laugh at herself. What was she, sixteen again? It was only a song and he was a performer. He got paid to make people feel like that. But she still wanted him. It was a terrifying cocktail of guilt and excitement.


Scared of being alone, lost in the arms of a handsome stranger, Evie believes her marriage to Joe is over. But Joe is on a mission to win her back. Will he reach her before she falls under the spell of hot rock singer Jake?


Joe is the only man she’s ever loved, since that long hot summer when she was sixteen. But how many lies is too many? Devastated by his latest betrayal, Evie flees to her grandmother’s remote cottage in the stormy wilds of picturesque Cornwall, staring into an empty future without the bad-boy she believed was her soulmate. Heartbroken and vulnerable, she falls under the spell of charismatic Jake who sweeps her head first into an irresistible and steamy affair.


Expecting Evie to come to her senses, Joe storms after her and finds himself stuck on the road trip from hell. When an ancient bridge is smashed to matchwood, it seems all hope of a happy future will be swept away. The old hurts are deep and forgiveness seems out of the question. Has Joe left it too late to persuade Evie he can change? Does he deserve another chance to convince Evie he loves her? Or will Evie be tempted to dump him and grasp her own happy ending with sexy rocker Jake?


Set in the windswept wilds of Poldark country, the perfect steamy romance for lazing on the beach or curling up on a rainy-day,very interesting tale.I rate it 3 out of 4.

I love romance, but healthy ones. I am sure this book must be truly captivating to keep you reading to the end. Great review. Most times we do not know what we have until we have lost it. I hope Joe did not lose his Evie.

The style of writing in the opening pages supports what you've said in your review, so congrats to the author on that front, but I will never be a fan of romance writing I'm afraid.

Great job,the review portrays the odds several relationships go through.though it is sometimes disastrous to dump one relationship and jump into another.evie could have taken a break.this book would very well be inspiring and educative.though i dont fancy romance.

It's interesting to note that Evie gets stronger as the book goes on, and that it's compelling. I'm not much of a romance fan myself, I have to say!

Nice review. Sounds like a good romance novel. However, I don't really see people falling bed a few days after meeting each other.

The book sounds so interesting, I know I won't like Joe at all but the plot sounds like something that would keep me engrossed.
