WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A WORLD TRIES TO SPLIT TRUE LOVE APART...? Seb has made a successful living through a love of horses, yet it never quite filled his empty heart. Taking time to venture to France, Seb encounters the lost love of his life, Sally, once more. After ten years apart, they quickly realise their love never went away... Challenges rise to meet the two lovers and their chance for happiness is challenged by the distance between them. Seb and Sally vow to endure their burden and find a way to be together again after their brief renewed encounter, but when Sally falls victim to a stalker's interest, Seb becomes desperate to protect her any way he can. Through his passion for horses and his commitment to loving Sally, Seb must find the courage and conviction to save them both during this terrible time... "A great continuation to its predecessor and another great work from the talented Ms Wells to be enjoyed by those who love immersive plots and real characters... Excellent..." Tina, Indie Book reviewer
We begin with Seb, a horse whisperer running into his lost love Sally in France. Then distanced by the Covid 19 pandemic they both go about their lives trying to be together again.
With a creepy stalker type literally lurking in the bushes - Sally begins to worry something is not quite right.
I love Gillian's books- I'm calling them 'Aussie farm comfort reads'. Wells ability to set up an authentic farm life is so fabulous. The setting combined with likeable MC's who value family, love and hard work allows readers to really connect with the story or be fascinated by their tough rural lives.
Congratulations Gillian Wells - I'll read your books forever!
Thank -you Shawline Publishing for sending me this copy to read and review.
Was looking forward to this read with anticipation. Was surprised that it started several years after “Lost” ended. By doing so the author created a brand new storyline with all the familiar characters. Seb’s talent as a horse whisper takes him from France and back to Australia through the pandemic of COVID. Loved that the author has included locations that are familiar to me having visited Australia in 2023. Another great accomplishment by Gillian Wells. I wonder if there may be a third book that continues on with Seb and Sally?
Seb returns in Returned, book 2 in Gillian Wells 'lost' series. Seb now living in France bumps into Sally whilst on a business trip. They start to rekindle their love that started 10 years prior. But then "COVID" hits. Sebs fights his way to get back to Sally who has returned home to Australia.
What another amazing read by Gillian. I was so excited to read this when Beauty and Lace Book Club announced they had copies. A must read for those who have suffered the "blackdog" and affected by covid.
Thankyou to Beauty and Lace Book Club, Gillian Wells and Shawline Publishing Group for the opportunity to read and review Returned.
