The Vets at Hope Green: Part Two

The second in a cute, cozy and lighthearted series. Sheila Norton does a great job with character development and Hope Green sounds like a lovely village.

I look forward to reading the rest of this series. Each book is more like a novella so they are quick reads.

Loved this second part just as much as the first. Eekkk left on a cliffhanger can't wait for the next instalment to find out what happens next for Sam.

This is Part 2 of a new series so stop reading now if you haven’t yet read part 1. You need to and it’s worth it!
In this episode Sam decides to follow her heart, leaving city life and her unsupportive boyfriend (putting it mildly) behind her. She heads to Dorset along with an adorable new character (who gets her paws under nana’s table very quickly). Nana shrewdly guesses why Sam is back in Hope Green and before long Sam is feeling at home.
David the dog-walker is fast becoming a friend, but is that all he wants to be? He is cheery, handsome and uncomplicated. However Joe the vet is as abrasive as ever despite having a kind and gentle manner with animals and it seems their paths are fated to keep crossing….
This is a sweet, gently paced story that I could imagine on TV on a Sunday night. Maybe I am thinking of All creatures great and small! Sheila Norton is good at capturing the charm of animals, a highlight of her stories. The only downside was it ended so quickly, as I was really enjoying it!

After reading the first part of this series I was chomping at the bit for the next one (thanks Netgalley & Publishers) to see how Sam dealt with her situation.

This time we get a little more depth to her and Nana's relationship and the highlight of this part is a scrummy little black feline named Ebony, that certainly appealed to my love of cats, who can resist a tiny stray!

Quite a lot happens in terms of decisions, friends, relationships and the subject of loneliness is sensitively covered. I enjoy the community spirit and really feel like I am getting to know the residents now.

This one does end on a cliff hangar so yet again I can't wait for the next instalment. A short novella that is ideal to curl up and lose yourself in .. cosy, warm and satisfying. Brilliant!

How lovely it was to get back to see how Sam was getting on after leaving her so utterly Stunned at the church. Well she had retreated back to the hustle and bustle of London and the townie boyfriend that I just wanted to keep at arms length.  This obnoxious, I love me best, man made my blood boil.  But it isn't long before Sam is heading back to see Nana, armed with a secret weapon to help pull her out of the deep depression she is going through, after losing her beautiful companion Rufus.
I adore how this series is already unfolding, there is so much going on and yet it is not at all complicated, well I suppose if you were Sam you would say it was complicated, because boy she is leading a busy life.
First there is Adam from London the obnoxious one. (Don't go there Sam)
 Then there is kind David with his love of animals and caring way. (yep nice and sweet, Next!)
Joe is Rude, arrogant and someone to fluster Sam until she makes choices almost out of defiance when he speaks to her, (just a moment I feel a swoon coming on, me not her) so yes a complicated life for Sam. And pure enjoyment for anyone reading this book.
I find myself constantly giggling away, and not quietly when I am reading this book, it really is such a joy to relax with. I love how this little village is becoming more colourful in my mind with each page that I turned, the characters fuller each with their quirky little ways that a small village creates with its residents.
I am so looking forward to part 3 of this super series and wish to thank NetGalley and the publisher for an Arc of this book , which I have chosen to review.

I've just finished this second book in the Vets at Hope Green series and it has certainly left me wanting more! Lovely quick reads. Heartwarming.

The Vets At Hope Green part 2 by Sheila Norton continues the tale of Sam, a young woman living in London but dreaming of village life. Again, just seven chapters that leaves the reader hanging on for the next part. Sheila Norton's engaging style really speaks to my heart.
The residents of Hope Green are wonderfully portrayed - all unique - from single mums to grumpy vets to gossiping neighbours to caring grandmothers - a fabulous glimpse into village life. My heart wants to move there!
As a crazy cat lady, I lost my heart to a small black kitten. Sheila Norton really knows cats as she had captured not only my heart but the personality of a kitten.
The Vets At Hope Green is perfect escapism whatever the weather outside. It is delightfully written and I cannot get enough of it! Roll on part three.
I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.

Back in London, Sam realises that life is not for her there. Her boyfriend is less than supporting and she realises how much she misses the countryside and the love that her Nana gives her, so unconditionally,.

Trouble is her Nana seems to have not been herself.

Step forward Sam and a little stray cat called Ebony. Sam has an idea which will solve not just some of her problems but her Nana's as well.

However she has to encounter Joe again in and it seems that her skills as a receptionist could well be put to good use, for a while anyway as Sam has left London with something else not just a little black cat.

This was another wonderful instalment in the new cosy romance series by Sheila Norton.

Once again we are welcomed back into Sam's life. Following her return back to London after a visit to the picturesque Hope Green, Dorset to see her nan Sam is resuming life back at the city vets. She's not sure where to go next with her relationship with Adam and she has to discuss some important details with him that will ultimately effect their futures.

Following a heart to heart with Adam, Sam reassesses her life and feels like the best place to ponder over her future is in Hope Green away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Sam takes an unexpected guest with her to her nan's, a stray black kitten that had been taken in at the city vets. Sam has taken a shine with the little cat and has spent a lot of time with her to aid her recovery. Sam is hoping the little stray will bring a smile back to her nan who sadly lost her beloved dog a few weeks back.

We follow Sam on her contemplative journey back to Hope Green with this little bundle of fur. Sam has to make decisions about her future. Hope Green makes Sam feel instantly comfortable and at home and the locals welcome her with open arms apart from the grumpy local vet.

This story is so likeable with it's idyllic setting and characters that are relatable. There is some hidden depths to the personalities of a few of the characters that leave you wanting to learn more about them. Sheila Norton has managed to wrap this series around my heart. She gives you a cliffhanger at the end of each part leaving you with the anticipated need to grasp the next instalment. A delightful series that I am looking forward to reading each and every part.

Read this in one sitting! Thoroughly enjoyed it and waiting for part 3.

I loved the second book in the Vets at Hope Green series. Sam takes a black cat, Ebony to her nan's in the hope that she will fall in love with it and have something to focus on. She decides that she loves living with her nan and wants to leave London far behind.

We already feel involved with all the characters and it's lovely to catch up and discover more. Hope Green sounds like the sort of place where bruised hearts have the chance to heal and I'm looking forward to hearing more about the vet who seems to be the grumpiest character in the whole village.

It's always a delight to find a new author that you can't wait for the next book- and I was delighted to hear that the next book will be available very soon.

I was so excited for the chance to read part two of the series, and get to catch up with Sam to see if she has made any life altering decisions. Part one of the series was such a heartwarming and lovely story.
So I was relieved that part two was just as satisfying as the first book. It's a cute lighthearted series without any complicated plot scenarios, however it's definitely ideal to read part one before you curl up in your favourite reading spot with the rest of the series.
Again, it's only a sweet little novella, so perfect if you don't have a lot of free time to get completely lost in a book. Like the first book, it ends on another cliffhanger, so I'm looking forward to the next installment.

Thank you to NetGalley, and the publisher Penguin Random House Uk, Ebury Publishing, for the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest and unbiased review.

I really enjoyed part 1 of the Vets at Hope Green and part 2 was just as enjoyable.

The story starts with Sam back in London but realising she's not totally happy with her life and is still dreaming of the beauty and calmness of Hope Green. Things aren't going well with her boyfriend and she's not happy. Could there be an easy way out where she can really have it all? Coming across a stray cat that needs love and nurturing may be the push she needs.

This is a lovely heartwarming short story and I can't wait for the next two instalments. Thanks to NetGalley, Penguin Random House UK Ebury Publishing and Sheila Norton for the chance to review.

I read Part One and was so pleased I didn't have to wait long for Part 2. Just hoping Part 3 will be along soon.

I've really enjoyed the characters and like the relationships which are being build on from Part 1. The author captures your interest and as the story twists and turns keeps you wanting to know what happens next.

A lovely part two book which picks up exactly where part one left off. Although it's better to read it as one of a series you could still enjoy the story as a one off. A lovely modern on off romance with pets, country lviing and a dashingly handsome (although bad tempered) vet as the hero of the hour.. A lovely feel good read for a chilly winter''s evening that makes you what to read part three immediately, to know what's going to happen next. It's not all roses and cream teas though; there are contemporary issues with single motherhood one of the main plot themes.

The second book in a series. Just so everyday life, relationships, jobs, homes, all make it a feel good read. But what a cliff hanger e ding! Roll on the third book.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for my copy of this on exchange for an honest review. After having read The Vets at Hope Green Part 1 and getting to know Sam and the other characters in the book, I was left wanting to read part 2. It was great to be able to catch up with Sam and all the happenings both in London and the now-familiar Hope Green. I felt happy at reading about characters and a setting I have come to love. Once again, Sheila Norton's writing style, attention to detail and ability to write a truly heart-wrenching read that continues to be unforgettable is what is so unique about this book. Really looking forward to part 3

This series is fantastic! I'm an animal lover so being set in a vets is wonderful for me. Can't wait for the next one!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

as good as the first novel in the series, i now eagerly await the 3rd.
