Rate this book
Sweet, small town, romantic women's fiction you'll adore. Discover this uplifting, heartwarming, small town story of second chances, new starts and life in a little beach town where everybody knows your name.

Nina Lavendar has settled into rural coastal life in Lovely Bay and is living the dream baby. Working for herself, living by the sea and surrounded not just by new love but new friends, too. She hardly remembers the person she was before she arrived in the third smallest town in the country.

After a little bit of luck, she is having a whale of a time in just about all areas of her life. Things are going swimmingly until she finds herself somewhere she thought she wouldn’t, has a few wobbles or six, and life decides it might like to throw a little problem her way.

Get ready to immerse yourself in Lovely Bay, where the sea sparkles, the lighthouse towers over the town and the small coastal community smiles as you as you go about your day.

If you’re a Babbette (IYKYK), you’re going to love, love, love it.

Yet another amazing book from Polly Babbington. A great end to the trilogy. Written with so much joy and passion. Once you start reading you really don’t want to stop. I enjoyed it from the first page and the only disappointment was the book had to end
I’ve read every single Polly book and cant wait for the next one.

Seashells at The Summer Hotel Lovely Bay: Polly Babbington.

I really have enjoyed reading about Lovely Bay, shall miss the series. Read from the beginning because then you will follow the tale of Nina. Sophie and Lovely Bay from the start. Follow Nina’s journey in life after London. 💕

smashed it 😊

Polly never fails to deliver, another fantastic end to her trilogy. What a whirlwind of a time it’s been for our Neens, but it all worked out well in the end.
Looking forward to returning to LovelyBay soon with another new character.

Another good read

I've enjoyed all the books written by Polly and can wait for the next, just wish the stories were longer.
It's nice to see other characters from other series appearing in this series.

disappointing compared to previous books

Half of book repeat story lines info on previous books. Not so imaginative as a full story like book series.

Really enjoyable read. My only dislike is that each story comes in 3 parts. Sadly I have short term memory problems and find it difficult to remember what happened in previous book so I've started making notes. Think I will start waiting fir all 3 then binge reading but that doesn't take away from it being a fab read and I've still given it 5 stars because the 'dislike' I have is a personal one!
