Guest Review: Love Blooms at the Cornish Cottage by Kim Nash

πŸ’” How do you mend a broken heart? πŸ’”

Michelle finally thought she’d found love with her hot Greek doctor. But when Demetri reveals he’s returning home to care for his sick mother, Michelle’s dream future crumbles. Choosing not to follow him feels like losing more than just love - it feels like losing who she’d started to become.

Determined not to fall apart, Michelle decides to throw herself into rebuilding her life in Sandpiper Shore, but then unexpectedly, Demetri’s brother, Makkis, arrives on her doorstep. Offering him a room seems like the kind thing to do… but the constant reminder of her lost love is difficult for her heartbroken soul.

And the more time she spends with Makkis, the clearer it becomes: there are parts of Demetri she never knew… Just as Michelle starts to heal with a little help from her friends, she’s faced with a decision: fight for the love she knows she deserves, or finally learn how to let go…



Review: This is the third book in the Sandpiper Shores trilogy. The books in this series feature three women who have come to live in this adorable Cornish seaside cottage and its adjacent buildings. Each book focuses on one of the three ladies and, although recurring characters also appear, can be read as a standalone story.

This story concerns Michelle, who moved to Sandpiper Shores after visiting on holiday, making friends with Jo and Emma, and falling in love with the area. After a chance meeting with Greek doctor Demetri, the pair have fallen deeply in love. However, Michelle has a tough decision to make when Demetri is called back home where his mother is gravely ill. She decides not to go with him and is just building up her business and her life in Sandpiper Shores when Demetri’s brother, Makkis, turns up unexpectedly. A dead ringer for his brother but with a different personality, Makkis charms Michelle and, with his stories of back home, makes her wonder if she actually knew the real Demetri. Although her friends advise caution, Michelle decides to follow Makkis’s suggestions for growing her business, but at the same time his presence is a constant reminder of her lost love. She wonders if she should stay in Cornwall and throw herself into life there or journey to Greece and try to revive her relationship with Demetri.

I loved the romantic books in this series, and this one in particular. Although each book focuses on one woman in particular, the others are there in the background ready with support when needed. In this story, as well as the wonderful setting on the Cornish coast, the reader is dealt up not one but two handsome Greek men; what’s not to love! I have admired Michelle from the start. She was so brave to make a move to Cornwall and start out on a new business on her own. She might not have done it without two equally strong friends to help her. I was in total agreement with them and screaming at her to exercise some sense when dealing with the all too charming Makkis. It seemed as if disaster was looming. I don’t want to give away what happened, but not surprisingly I was also treated to a trip to a beautiful Greek island. I can confidently recommend this compelling story and am already looking forward to reading the next book from Kim Nash.
