Fred and Breakfast
Perfect for fans of Portia MacIntosh, Milly Johnson and Sophie Kinsella.
Daisy’s life is going nowhere, but that’s just how she likes it.
Unable to move on from the tragic accident that killed her parents ten years ago, she’s living each day as it comes. After all, what’s the point of plans and dreams if one random event can rip them all from you? She’s quite comfortable with her dead-end job and her lacklustre love life, thank you.
When she and her sister inherit a run-down café from a distant relative, her first instinct is to sell it. She doesn’t know anything about running a business, so the idea of taking it on and trying to turn it around is way too much of a risk. However, chef Matt has other ideas, and it’s not long before his infectious passion for the place starts to rub off on her.
Will she be able to save the café, or will the café end up saving her?

This was all around just a nice enjoyable reading (in my case listening) experience. Very pleasant and will definitely be looking to read more from the author. I liked that moments that could have gone "darker" actually didn't. Felt more like real life that people can surprise us and the worst isn't always going to happen in fiction to grab our attention.

I didn’t love it but I didn’t hate it. The story was nice enough the Mc’s were a little too nice and lovey for me and I didn’t fully buy the love story.

I love Phoebe MacLeod’s books. So fun and happy. I love listening to her books on audio. Another good one with uplifting characters and a happy ending.

Slow to begin with but picks up fast. It’s a bit predictable but then again what books aren’t without being over the top and excruciatingly long.
My thought process was
“Aw sweet cafe time and a ton of dough.”
“Man of interest is in the picture”
“Gay”
“Gay?”
“GAY”
“Aw cute”
Y’know.

Nice simplistic and enjoyable read
Disappointed by the ending, bit underwhelming and anticlimactic
