Book Review: Finding You by Emma Nichols

Amazon Blurb:

 

On the back of a recent break up and her mum’s shocking news, Anna wasn’t looking for love, but it found her…

Lauren Vincenti comes from wealth. Her family has owned their famous vineyard in Corsica for generations and they have a personal reputation to protect. Married to Rachel, she lives and works in London as a lawyer. That is, until her father commits suicide and she is required to play her part in the family business.

Anna is an up and coming artist, following in her highly successful mother's footsteps. Her chance meeting with the seductive Vincenti, and their spontaneous dinner together, changes her life forever. Is there such a thing as love at first sight? Can she ever trust again, and what happens when she does?

 

My Thoughts:

This is not your typical lesfic love story, don’t let Emma fool you with her brilliant writing!  With a cast that would pass the Bechdel test with flying colours, this is a book that I simply could not put down. 

 

No spoilers, but the twist at the end is worthy of George R.R. Martin and made my jaw hit the floor with such a loud thud that the dog looked concerned for half a second before humphing at me, rolling his eyes and going back to sleep.

 

I will warn you that if you read this book you will not be able to stop yourself from immediately reading the sequel, “Remember Us” – and you really really should allow that to happen.

 

Cheers
