A light-hearted romance that is the perfect way to while away a gloomy winter afternoon, this story has strong female characters and all the right ingredients: a feisty female protagonist, a brooding, handsome hero with a tragedy in his past, complicated family relationships, an unexpected inheritance, and an enemies-to-friends romance.

This story should please those who enjoy a sweet, low-key romantic story, The relationships between Posy, her adoptive mother, and her newly-discovered uncles are nicely developed. The narrative flows well and sparkles with touches of humor throughout.

Thanks Netgalley and the Publisher. I have enjoyed all this authors books and this was lovely, great characters, great storyline, a real feel good read.

Yet another fantastic book from Tilly. It was another real hug of a book that I desperately needed to cheer me up on these cold winter days

Posy and her mother arrive at Oleander House filled with apprehension as she isn't sure what sort of welcome she will receive from her birth family. Her mother gave her up for adoption and she has only just heard from them. They were also shocked to discover her existence upon the reading of her grandmothers will. Posy finds herself drawn to the beautiful Somerset countryside and the easy way of life on her families farm. She feels a sense of belonging and contentment that is missing from her hectic London life. Tilly Tennant's story of Posy's longing for a simpler life is a great way to escape for a while.

A much needed escape. I loved this book it felt like a much needed 'hug in a book'. After loosing her job in London Posy heads to the country. Its a beautiful, relaxing setting. I loved the characters and the laid back storyline. Perfect beach read. I loved it

Normally I'm a massive fan of Tilly Tennant, and don't get me wrong I did enjoy A Cider Apple Summer while I was reading it, but it's not even close in my eyes to the rest of her books.

I felt no real draw to keep going back to my kindle, and I found the whole story rather slow. All the most interesting things mentioned in the blurb, happened so far in, that to even comment on the best bits would be spoiler-y in my mind, and it took quite a lot of building background to get there.

I kept willing Posy to make what to me was a rather obvious decision but she just didn't seem to see it like that, and although she is the main character, I much preferred any scenes that Marcella, her best friend, or Asa one of her new uncles are in.

There is though a memorable opening meeting with Lachlan which did have me smiling a lot.

The setting is stunning and I would have loved to be at Oleander House in Somerset, during a good British Summer as it sounded lovely. Funnily enough for a book featuring cider orchards, there was possibly more focus on the next door vineyards than anything to do with cider.

I did like the book, I just ultimately was frustrated as I have read far better from this author. Sorry.

Loved this book as all other Tilly Tennant books. Posy arrives at Oleander House when she finds out about her biological family. She meets brothers Asa and Giles and Sandra Giles wife. They have an apple orchard that they use to make cider. Then she meets Lachlan next door neighbour who has a vineyard.

This was a fun read! Very quick! Kept me intrigued throughout it all!
I have been in such a funk lately not being able to find the right book.... Well this one did it for me!
Cute! Funny! Small town vibe!

Love this book.
So glad it had a happy ending.
Can this be a sequel would love to no if posy does give her business ago on her own and if her and lachlan get married.
Loved how stubborn posy is when faced with a situation like the vineyard and lachlan. Love her spirit and determination.

I really enjoyed this book. It was fun, easy to read, I enjoyed all of the characters and their personalities. Would definitely recommend!

I’m never disappointed by a Tilly Tennant book. Yet again this is a wonderful trip to literary escapism. The characters are fun, relatable and interesting, the story is engaging and entertaining. You won’t be disappointed!

Light, Uplifting Romcom....
Light, uplifting romcom fromTilly Tennant. A sweet tale with a likeable protagonist in Posy, a colourful cast of supporting characters and a serene backdrop. Some guaranteed escapism to chase away the blues.

A cider farm in Somerset is Posy’s destination. Adopted as a baby, the farm is home to Posy’s birth family. Discovering she has two uncles, she is immediately made welcome; so when she loses her job she makes the decision to relocate to Somerset for the summer. But will an embarrassing encounter with grumpy neighbour Lachlan take the shine off of Posy’s summer?

Lighthearted and entertaining. This was a quick and easy read.

A great read. Two stories in one I felt. At one point I got a bit fed up of the main character Posy. She did have a lot going on. Her mum Carmel was amazing. I must admit I did not want this book to end. Lovely to read about Somerset and cider- made you thirsty

Ok book not one of the best I have read. Kinda boring at times. I won’t be reading anything by this author again.

Posy is in Somerset after finding out that her birth mother's family live there and she wants to meet her new uncles.

Although she lives in London she can't help but be drawn back to the cider orchards where her new family lives, so when she loses her job she heads off to the countryside.

She has had a few encounters with grumpy neighbour Lachlan but still wants to help him out. I would have liked to have seen more of the book about them.
