Summary

It's a big day for Charlie Bell - the grand reopening of her aunt Pansy's long-closed tea rooms in Tremevissey, a quaint Cornish seaside resort. But not everyone is chuffed for Charlie. The tea rooms are cursed, locals say. For Pansy was cruelly jilted by her lover and walked out into the Atlantic Ocean, never to return.

Charlie dismisses the 'curse' as superstitious nonsense, of course. But by the end of the first day, her world is in tatters, and she's not even sure the tea rooms can open for a second day of trading. 

Then in walks a rugged, taciturn man with a sexy smile and everything he owns on his back, looking for a summer job....

Is Gideon Petherick an angel in disguise? Or is history about to repeat itself?

lives up to the title....

The story is definitely odd. I was waiting for it to get better, this didn't happen

Pointless

I'm tempted to use the word drivel. Not much by way of plot, nothing much happens and there's little/no character development. If it wasn't free I would have returned it.

Gave up

I tried but gave in on chapter 8…
I think this book is aiming to be funny but isn’t it just made me frown or cringe

could've marked it lower but it doesn't allow it

This book is wrong on so many levels. Young single woman living alone takes total stranger into her home immediately. They share very limited living space and the possibilities for rape, murder assault are endless.
She doesn't check his references or anything, but lets him loose in her café no food checks, so that's unlikely.
He has a very creepy voice and keeps making animal noises.... or is it the bottom of the barrel being scraped? She has the silly girl voice , so which is the most annoying?
Plot line?
undead aussie aunt who let the young stud use the loo when he was little now has his undying gratitude.
So young lad grows up and is now a Hot wealthy guy with debt of gratitude to undead aunt so he abandons his chain of sucessful restaurants, flash car and yacht to take care of her cursed café and silly voiced drippy girl
All I can say is whoever proof read and passed this book for publication wants sacking.
What a complete load of waddle.
Oh but it was free......I wonder why...
