What a beautiful end to a lovely set of books. You have love, drama, family issues and friendship in this book, all superbly written with the story arc's all coming together. Totally recommend this series to everyone. Thank you netgalley for the advanced copy

This is the third and final book in the Starfish café series and though it is wonderful to read of you haven't even read any of the others, it is a stunning conclusion to the characters and drama of the café trilogy.
There is so much feelgood warmth infused in the book alongside the turmoils of parenting, siblings, marriage, and fertility so be prepared for some heavy topics but handled, as always, with gentle hands.
A fantastic summer read

I will NEVER stop shouting about my love for Jessica Redland's work. Every time she brings out a new book, I jump (not literally, I don't want to break a hip) at the chance to read it as I just know it's going to be perfectly gorgeous.

This is book number 3 in the Starfish Café series and I am loving it. You get some series that, whilst set in the same 'universe', focus on different people. And then others, like this one, follow the same characters' stories. And I'm loving that. These characters feel like friends, feel like family, and it's really exciting to see what they've been up to and be a part of their story.

I love that we get, not only a continuation of Hollie's story, but we also get Kerry's story. It gives us more to feast on about some of the characters we've come to love over the series.

Like the others in the series, it's fun and light-hearted and exciting, but it doesn't hide the harsh truths. The deaths and grief, disappointments, relationship struggles, anger, terror. It's real life in all it's raw glory. And unfortunately, some people get more bad news than one person should (and I resonate with that), and whilst that almost sounds like it's been made up for entertainment purposes, this is real life and it's awful and difficult, but it really makes the happy times shine.

I was really hoping this wouldn't be the last in the series but it looks like it is. I completely understand why she's finished it, it's finished off very nicely, but I never wanted to leave it. But I am looking forward to seeing what new series she comes up with now.

I've cried at moments in all the Starfish Café books, but this one even more. For good reasons and sad. For what I would call a happily-ever-after type book, it is full of emotional scenes.

The pace of it is just right, it never feels too slow, and also never rushed. It's easy to read (I read it in just one day) and you'll find yourself absorbed right from the start.

I can't 100% say that you can read it without reading the other two first. I'm sure you could, but you probably won't get everything out of it that you could. By reading the full series, you get sucked in to the stories and you can fully appreciate the ending as if it was happening to your family.

I think it's fair to say my obsession with Jessica Redland and her books is not going to go away any time soon. She's just a stupendous storyteller that she's bound to end up with her own shelf on my bookcase.

I’ve been long overdue a book of Jessica’s so decided I’d treat myself to reading this over the weekend and now I’ve got my fix I feel like I need even more!

I absolutely loved being back in Whitsborough Bay with so many familiar characters - especially the little visits to Castle Street 😍 it just makes me think of Lincoln so much and that’s always good.

Hollie and Jake have definitely had their fair share of misfortune but unfortunately it doesn’t seem like this is making a stop just yet… I really did feel for them and little word to mention here, there is talk of baby loss and miscarriage so have your tissues ready, I found myself fighting back tears a few times! Redland deals with it perfectly and you can tell this is a really personal moment, both for her and the characters - I just wanted to reach in and give them all a hug but you feel like you get that back as well.

It isn’t all sad though and there are some really lovely moments where we get to know Kerry and her family a bit more - although how she put up with Cameron so much … ugh he was a piece of work!!! Anyway, onto the shining moments of this book… her kids and pickle steal the show as always and just put a smile on your face, plus I loved the fact that we got to see some of our favourite seals again.

This book has everything you’d want for a cosy weekend read on the sofa, there’s love, friendship, hot chocolates, nature, rescues, tension, emotions and revelations but through it all the wonderful community that Redland has created holds fort to come together and leave you with a massive smile on your face wondering where we’ll end up on our next visit… back to Castle Street with the newest empty shop maybe?!

Love, love, love this author. Every book just sucks you in. The characters are likeable and engaging. Really enjoyed this series and especially like the overlap with characters from other books.

We are back for the last time at The Starfish cafe, I have really enjoyed getting to know and love these characters, Betty is just the sweetest lady.

It is lovely to read just how far Hollie and Jake have come over the three books, very settled married and looking foward to their new chapter.

This time around we have Kerry’s story who works at the Starfish, wow what a story, that takes you from past to present which was really enjoyable, a total wonder woman with four children and trippy Tuesday to contend with.

A book full of emotions, ups and downs, new friendships, learning about the RNLI and resues, this story has it all and I’m sad to say goodbye.

What I enjoy and a great idea is Jessica’s recap at the beginning of who is who, you can go a while between books so is fab to have that reminder.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What a fantastic ending to a series . A lovely story. Very tearful times. Ace to be back at the Starfish cafe. I loved how two story’s ran side by side. The lifeboat elements is always good. Jake and his sister part of the story is and sad at the same time. Kerry’s x husband was amazing not in a good way. There is so much you want to say but it will spoil it. A perfect ending all neat and tidy and a bit sad too. Loved it

Jessica Redland has done it again! This was absolutely delightful. The plot was well-paced and captivating from start to finish. The characters were charming and witty. I highly recommend this fun and quick read! Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the advanced copy of the book.

I loved this so much. The friendships and the community carring is just want you need in this feel good summer romance. This is perfect for a rainy day or lounging by the pool or ocean.

Thank you to NetGalley, the Publisher, and Jessica Redland for allowing me to read this ARC. This review is completely my own honest review.

I really enjoyed this book! I did not realize that this was part of a series, but was able to enjoy it as a standalone. If I had read the other books in the series, I probably would not have had the questions that I had throughout! I loved the relationship between Hollie and Jake and getting to see how their story evolved.

I will absolutely be reading more by this author.

A satisfying ending to this series. We get to see Hollie and Jake married and moving into a happy future. And Starfish Cafe employee Kerry's story is a really nice addition. I enjoyed this story which stands well alone.

To say I'm a huge fan of Jessica is a understatement and to get advance copy of this meant everything. I've loved the Starfish Cafe from the very first book and instantly fell in love with Hollie and Jake. I'm sad this series has come to end.

To see Hollie and Jake get married was wonderful. There story has always been an emotional roller-coaster and this book is no different. Hollie is someone you can't but fall in love with. She's warm, kind hearted and has bags of love to give so you see the nasty Larrisa back, my heart sank.

She's a vile piece of work who seriously needs help. I'm glad this book does tie that storyline up. I don't want to say more but maybe a secret niece or nephew, more attacks - yeah same old with her. Though there is a happily ever after for those two and the beginning of a brand new chapter of Starfish. Maybe one day they'd get their own book?

Not only do we continue with Hollie story but we also get to read Kerry's story. That woman deserves a gold medal. And her ex husband man I wanted to scream and shout at him. Just say waste of space and can't listen is about sums him up? I instantly fell in love with Maisie, Noah, Jayden and Freya - love their names. After dedicating her life to her children she deserves to find her happily ever after.

I promise you won't be able to put this book down. I finished it in two days though I will say is, make sure you have lots of tissues because this is another tearjerker of a book. A perfect end to this trilogy and let's bring on the next one.

Thank you Boldwood for allowing me early access as it meant, and means everything.

Holly and Jake...their lives together. This is a cozy, fun read that is written by a talented and gifted author. This book was sent to me electronically by Netgalley for review. Thanks to the publisher and the author. This is a quick read. Curl up in a comfy chair, grab a cozy blanket, and a cup of steaming herbal tea. Be transported to the summer nights.
