I did enjoy reconnecting with everyone at Renweneth farm Community. The third book in the series where Jess & Riley are getting married & are renovating Renweneth Manor to have as their family home. So much to do & so little time, made more difficult with problems thrown at them.
I've enjoyed following Jess's life & for her to have her happy ever after. Well worth a read!

"A Summer Wedding at the Cornish Manor" follows Jess and Riley as they prepare for their wedding while renovating Renweneth Manor. Jess's best friend Ivy and her husband Adam also face challenges with Ivy's bakery business and an unexpected arrival. The novel explores Jess's independent approach to life and Riley's personal growth. Set in picturesque Cornwall, it offers vivid descriptions of the farm and countryside. Although it can be read as a standalone, reading the series enriches the experience. The heartwarming story highlights a supportive community coming together, providing a satisfying conclusion to the series.

Firstly, I would like to say, that I loved the detailed descriptions in this book, the growths of the farm and the ideas for it. I could easily connect with the main characters Jess and Riley and the whole story was light, clean, and cozy.

The pair restores an old Manor and rebuilds it for their needs and adapts to modern necessities.
It was a joy to read about the whole farm, its growing activities, and the preparations for Jess and Riley's wedding.
However in my opinion the story was accompanied by too many calculations and I have missed at least a little twist in the story and therefore the wow effect.

All in all, I would recommend this book to readers in between books who want a light, cozy British story.

I would also like to say my thanks to NetGalley and the Publisher for providing of this book an early review.

A wonderful next installment of the Cornish series! Sweet, lighthearted romance just right for the summer! I had joined this series late and wish I'd started at the beginning, but I was able to understand everything despite coming late to the party.

Recommended as a fun, fast, light summer read.

A Summer Wedding at the Cornish Manor by Linn B Halton is such a feel-good book. There is no plot, really just a slice-of-life, but we have been following these lives for several books now and we know the participants, well. The rush is on the complete the remodel of the manor so that Jess and Riley can be married there and Riley can officially move in. There will also be space for his son, who he gets to see irregularly., and of course, Lola, Jess’s daughter. There are always problems with construction and this is no exception. Thank God for Riley and for Cappy, Jess’s grandfather. She works nearly every day along side the crew and she is there for most of it. They have become friends over the long haul to get the farm up and running. Adam and Ivy have discovered they are going to have a baby. They are over the moon and making plans a mile-a-minute. All seems to be coming together for Renweneth Farm, just as she knew it would.

Nothing is ever that easy, though, is it? They are doing so well her tax bill is going to be huge. A good problem to have, but one which needs to be planned for. Riley has his own problems with his family and Jess tries to be supportive but not pushy. Cappy needs to decide about the house he’s renting in Stroud, and Adam and Ivy need to try to get the mortgage to buy the house they are renting. Jess is relentless and keeps a smile on her face very day and supports all the people she loves and works with. It is such a nice story. I love to see it when things go right or can be made to go right. It doesn’t always happen but in this little world it does. Halton has created a group of lively and precocious characters and written a saga about their loves and their loves. Thanks, Linn B. Halton for this series.

I was invited to read A summer Wedding at the Cornish Manor by Aria & Aries. All thoughts and opinions are mine. #Netgalley #AriaAndAries #LinnBHalton #ASummerWeddingAtTheCornishManor

Don't we all love a wedding? And this book is no exception. Yet another great book by Linn continuing the Escape to Cornwall series.

It's a lovely, gentle, heartwarming story set in Cornwall about family, friendship and coping with everything life throws your way with the help of a supportive community. The relationships are believable, as are the ups and downs in the characters' emotional and business lives. I like the renovation details, the vibrant characters and the vividly described setting for this story.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher.

Jess has taken over running Renweneth Farm from her grandfather, Cappy. When his wife died, he didn’t have the heart to stay there. Jess is divorced and has a young daughter, Lola. Jess has made many improvements to the Farm by adding lots of businesses that draw a lot of people to the area. Some time ago, she hired Riley to help with restoring the large Renweneth Manor. Their togetherness found them falling in love and now they are engaged to be married in the summer. Jess’s good friend, Ivy, owns and runs the bakery and she and her husband, Adam, live in a small cottage near the bakery. With Cappy back and helping to get things done, life is very busy.

Each day seems to throw a roadblock in getting things done, but Jess and Riley are determined to keep things moving and with the help of their family and friends, they do so.

Their wedding in the summer isn’t something that Jess has had much time to concentrate on so her mother insists on taking over and getting everything on track. Everyone pulls together, plus friends and family come together to make this a tight and loving community.

I love the writing of this author and enjoy her books. They are down to earth and it’s like meeting good friends and helping one another face problems and solve them together. I do hope she writes more about Renweneth Farm as I’m excited to see how it grows.

How lovely to return to Renweneth Farm for the wedding of the year! Alongside the continuing renovations of Renweneth Manor, Jess and Riley have their hands full and the arrival of their friend's twins adds to the celebrations, roll on Christmas!

A Summer Wedding at the Cornish Manor is at it's essence a love story, but it's so much more than that. It's about family (biological and found family), friends and community. Jess and Riley are engaged to be married, but there is so much else going on. They are trying to get their house ready to live in, convince her grandfather Cappy that they want him around, deal with Riley's ex and handle all sorts of crises.

You feel fully invested in this community and their joys and sorrows. The characters are all interesting and complex and the relationships feel real. They have flaws and they experience growth. It was a good read and although a couple of times I found the pacing a bit slow for my taste, I still thought it was great and wrapped up nicely. Thank you to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for a chance to review this book. This is my honest review.

A great relaxing read with a cuppa. This is the third instalment, enjoyable but I felt not as captivating as the others

What a shame that this is the last in this series as it has been a real pleasure to go to the Cornish Manor to live the lives with these characters. I will sadly miss this series but I am sure I will re-read the books at a later date. 5 stars.

Thanks to Netgalley, author and publisher for this ARC

It's delightful to be back with the people of Cornwall. While this is the third in a series it's enjoyable as a standalone but those who have been following along will be happy to catch up with the goings on at the farm and in the village. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. Light easy read.

Thanks to the Publishers and Netgalley for an early review copy.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, after the first one, I couldn’t wait to find out how the characters were doing.

It was lovely to read how the farm was progressing and I gently as though I was at the farm myself, having a coffee and cake in the bakery.

The story kept me engrossed wanting to find out how it will end.

I await to read what happens next at the farm.

I recommend this book.
