Quote of the week
CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."
Recipe of the week
Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Ohh, I LOVED this book and can't wait to read the next in the trilogy.
The characters are so believable, think we must all know and love them easy to relate to similar family, friends and neighbours of our own.
Helen, our heroine, is brilliant and, without giving too much of the plot away, you're very pleased that everything seems to work out for her in the end, even her employment with the boss from hell!
The style of writing is light and easy. Througout the book I was willing Helen on and couldn't wait to turn the next page.
