I want to thank Netgalley and the author for gifting me the ebook.
I loved the color. I usually always enjoy books from this author. I will say this might have been m least favorite but it was not bad in anyway. I think all the books so far I just didn't click with the main female character. I found her absolutely annoying and she completely didn't trust anyone and made up situations in everyone's life and then believed them. I felt like for being a mom she acted like a teenager.

The little beach cafe is just gorgeous and it seems like a great place to catch up with friends or just come when you're feeling lost. Pippa is a quiet and reserved person who I instantly connected with. It was great to watch her come out of her shell and make friends.

Pippa, a resilient single mother facing financial turmoil due to her partner's departure and debts, inherits a dilapidated beachside cafe from her great aunt. Determined to turn her life around, she tirelessly works to revive the cafe, initially struggling to fit into the small community. The gruff but supportive plumber, Joe, becomes an unexpected ally in her journey. The narrative revolves around Pippa's quest for trust and love, seizing the opportunity for a fresh start when her ex-husband abandons her and their son, leaving behind crippling debts. Relocating with her son, Pippa encounters Joe, a handyman, and their relationship blossoms. Amidst the challenges, her conniving ex-husband resurfaces, attempting to disrupt their lives with lies and financial motives. Despite the adversities, Pippa's resilience shines through in this captivating tale of rebuilding, trust, and newfound love, making for an enjoyable read.

A cute read, with a feel good factor!

Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review.

Great read
First book in this series
And what a great book to start with
Had me from page one and didn’t want to put it down
Thanks NetGalley

I’m in two minds about this book. The premise is inviting, single mother picking up the pieces of her life with a new business, learning new skills and being successful. However the writing is stark in places, assumptions jumped too, self esteem issues and lots of whinging. Of course this is illustrative of how life and people can be but for some romantic escapism there needs to be a bit more of a balance. I will admit the last quarter of the book was spot on. Plenty of drama and action.

Thank you Netgalley

I adored this book! A sweet, cute read I read in a couple days! The story was so good and kept me reading and not wanting the book to end!!

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. An excellent, well-written book about second chances. I loved this story and what I pictured as the Little Beach Cafe. Hope to read more in this series

A nice story about a lady called Pippa who inherits a beach cafe from her aunt who had just dies. It is a fun read. I liked the characters and the beach setting.

This novel was okay. The characters I couldn't connect with in this genre. I think I need something with more meaning as this felt very materialistic.

I had fun reading The Little Beach Cafe by Sarah Hope.

Pippa, a single mother, whose life is pretty much falling apart, learns that she inherited a beach cafe from her aunt.

I give it 4 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thank you to NetGalley, Sarah Hope and Boldwood Books for this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

This was such a sweet story I loved the fact that most of the characters were lovely, friendly and so eager to help Pippa to open her cafe. The romance in this story wasn't too sickly and Joe sounded like a lovely bloke. I hope there is more in this series as I would love to find out what happens next. My thanks to netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Boldwood Books through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Thank you so much!

This was a very enjoyable and sweet read from a new to me author.
I enjoyed getting to know Pippa and her son. They made me smile and laugh at times.
But parts of this book made me sad too. I loved little Joshie. He made want to cry at times Children are the ones who are easily hurt but I like how some bounce back too.
Children are the ones who easily forget sometimes and forgive too.
Pippa was very brave in stepping up and accepting change. Change isn't always easy, but sometimes it can be for the good.
I loved the setting of this book.
The story was so good that I ended up devouring it in one night. I didn't want to put it down until I finished. Just wow.
I feel that this could be a Hallmark movie.
The cover is quite cute too. It was what made me want to read it. I wanted to find out what was happening inside! A very inviting cover.
I enjoyed this book to the fullest!
A sweet contemporary with a little romance thrown in? What's not to love?!
Here's a quote I want to share
‘It’s funny how life turns out. If you hadn’t reopened this place and if Joe hadn’t roped me into helping you, I think I’d have been stuck indoors at home for the rest of my life.’
5 stars for a well written story. I highly recommend it!
My thanks for a copy of this book. I was NOT required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are my own.

Alongside The Seaside Ice Cream Parlour, also by Sarah Hope, I was transported to a thoroughly pleasant world for several hours. I almost read this in one sitting, it was compelling reading,
I was willing PIppa onwards to success as she endeavoured to establish herself in the seaside community that she'd suddenly been thrust into. I wasn't in her plans, but she definitely tenaciously made the most of the opportunity.
I've noticed from this and The Seaside Ice Cream Parlour, that Sarh Hope likes strong women who have a 'can do' attitude despite adveristy and tough situations.
Thoroughly enjoyable read.
