Olivia is a woman on a mission....that is to go on a worldwide journey of discovery. Finding out why some countries have higher divorce rates and why people in certain countries are happier in general. She is a hardworking (too hardworking for my liking!) divorce lawyer and the story starts with an event of her own which results in her taking nearly a year long sabbatical from her job. This makes her realise the more important things in life.
I loved how I could pick up this story at different times and not be confused on what was happening. So if you are after a laid back read this is one for you! The detail of each destination Olivia visits is amazing you just feel like you are there too.
I was also holding back the tears by the end of this heartwarming story. ‘A Year of Chasing Love’ is about taking the time needed to find out what you really need in life. This was my first read by Rosie and it won’t be my last. I thought her writing was easy going with very loveable characters 😊 I give ‘A Year of Chasing Love’ an endearing 4*/5* ❤️
Thank you to HQ Digital for an advanced copy of this book via Netgalley.

Thanks Netgalley and the Publisher. A real feel good relaxing read with great characters, great storyline and a happy ending. Recommend.

A perfect book for a lazy afternoon when you want to relax and read an enjoyable story.
It's engrossing and entertaining, the cast of characters is well thought and plot, even if a bit unbelievable at times, it escapism at high level.
Recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

I really liked the premise of this story, it caught my eye right away when I read the synopsis, but I feel that there were parts that could have been fleshed out more. I really liked Olivia as a character, she is realistic and her reactions to situations weren't outrageous, but fit with someone who is trying to discover where they went wrong. I liked the secondary characters, but I felt that some of them felt a little flat and could have been fleshed out a bit more to make me care about them just a bit more. All around I enjoyed this book, I like the lessons learned and I really liked Olivia.
I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley for my honest review

This was my first book by this author, It was pretty enjoyable. I would give this book a 3.5 star rating! It was a pretty Quick and easy read!

Although I didn't think the storyline was believable or that it would be the way anyone would go about trying to save a broken marriage, I loved the journey and the travelling. So from the basis of a feel good read it ticked all the boxes. A good bit of escapism fiction.

As a successful divorce attorney, Olivia Hamilton didn’t spend a lot of time thinking about the emotional fallout from the dissolution of marriage – until she gets served divorce papers herself. In an attempt to start over and find a new purpose, she goes on a year-long around the world adventure. Still, even on the other side of the world, Olivia’s thoughts keep returning to her soon to be ex husband. Is there a way to salvage their marriage? To be honest, I was hoping Olivia would keep up with the world traveling, much better than any marriage any day

Lovely book to read and all about lessons learnt and missed while living your life and neglecting nearest and dearest, unintentionally, whilst working to be the best you can be. Happy and sad funny and beatiful sentiment of life travelled and passing you by unintentionally.
Look forward to her next book.

Nice feel good book. It flowed very well. was easy to read. Nice characters. Good storyline. What’s not to love.

I received an e-ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review! This book is a great book for all people, who are considering a relationship to those who are in a relationship. The main character of this book was very realistic and reminded me of women of today. The plot line was very simple and not very complex, which made it easy to pick up the story after putting down the book throughout the day. There was a lot of flashbacks, which is to be expected for this character's development throughout her journey. Throughout her travels, the main character describes many of the sights using great details that makes me want to take a trip to the different places she went to. The different people she met made different impacts on her self discovery. I enjoyed the supporting characters, but found their place in the book was just for the relationships they had in their lives. I wished some of the minor characters were more developed and would enjoy a book about her two best friends! The ending of the book was very enjoyable and complete. I would have enjoyed seeing the 12 points, written throughout the book, on a back page of the book altogether! I will enjoy reading any books this authors writes!
