Thank you Dani Collins for sending over the book to me, and for your autograph! It's really precious to me!

As much as I love romance novels, this one is definitely at the top of my favourites.
For every romantic soul among us, this is a book that will lead you into an amazing world full of emotions, laughter, intelligent conversation and very explicit moments that will make you open the windows at home. My home felt too hot a few times ;)

It is a very good composed book, the story takes you in right from the very first chapter and I will save you all from spoilers, but I'll let you know that you will definitely love the ending and would want to know what happens after as well!

A must read for all of you that enjoy reading about love and happy ever afters!

Made my heart ache
Changing on the fly tells the story of the beautiful Maya finally finding love with her best friend’s younger brother Jude, after being in love with him for over five years.
However as is life the process is never straightforward. Maya is being terrorised by her ex, and he is brutally harsh in handing out his brand of terror. There should most certainly be a trigger warning on this book due to the some of the horrendous acts that Maya is subjected to.
It’s a well written tale, that I simply could not put down. I read it in a matter of hours. The main characters are very likeable and I could not help but empathise with them. Angela Stevens’s novel is an emotional rollercoaster, allowing you to experience joy and love followed my fear and horror. With some very heartwarming moments entwined.

I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley and Penguin Books for review purposes

I love Richard Osman so I so wanted to love this book but truthfully, I struggled! I'm going to chock it up to the fact that I'm just not a mystery reader so that aspect didn't even keep me hooked. I guess this cosy mystery was just too cosy that I ended up drifting off to sleep more than once and if this wasn't an arc I would have seriously considered DNF-ing which I really didn't want to say! It picked up pace a lot by the halfway mark though and I actually found myself actually invested in the story and I did enjoy all the twists and turns that occurred and finding out just why everyone did what they did but I just didn't love it unfortunately!
