Desperate to get out of the personal and professional funk she's been in since her father died two years earlier, Cordelia takes a gig housesitting a cozy cottage on the Irish islands of Inishmore for a summer. Soon after arriving, she butts heads with Niall, a recently brokenhearted chef who's come home to help his parents run their pub in the busy season. With a tiny close-knit community, Cordelia and Niall find themselves thrown together much more than anticipated, and soon discover that they actually enjoy each other's company.
While both main characters had relatable and realistic backstories, the setup of the book and the speed at which things developed felt a bit quick and forced. However, I loved the setting and the secondary characters, so all in all it was a nice way to spend an afternoon, even if the book won't win any awards.
