Harper Impulse Fortnight!

Starting today, it is Harper Impulse Fortnight! Two weeks of celebrating the wonderful authors and books from Harper Impulse.

Over the course of the next two week, myself and many other bloggers will be sharing some great reviews, interviews and guest posts all revolving around Harper Impulse. I will have the lovely Lori Connelly, Lisa Fox and Lynn Marie Hulsman joining me at the Book Nook, so keep an eye out and be sure to follow everything on twitter using the hashtag #HIfortnight.

For now, feel free to have a read through some previous reviews I’ve posted of Harper Impulse books. Nic Tatano quickly became one of my favourite authors of 2014 when I read his books Twitter Girl and It Girl – click the covers to read what I had to say about them.

Book Review: It Started At Sunset Cottage, by Bella Osbourne

Kate Marshall is slowly getting her life back on track after losing her fiancé. As an author she has been able to hide herself away from the world and its expectations – but now one of her books has been optioned for a film and Hollywood suddenly comes knocking on her door!

When Kate is given the opportunity to stay at a beautiful country retreat and concentrate on the screenplay, it’s an offer she can’t refuse. Encouraged by her best friend, sharp-tongued single mum Sarah, Kate sees it’s finally time to stop letting life pass her by.

Looking for confidence and inspiration in the idyllic Cotswolds countryside, the last thing Kate expects is for Timothy Calder, A-list actor and leading man in the movie adaptation of her book, to turn up on her doorstep, hoping to lie low after his latest tabloid scandal! But after a rocky start, with Tim narrowly avoiding death by watering can, they find they have a few things in common: a liking for Lady Grey tea, walnut whips and bad ‘knock knock’ jokes. Actually, the bad jokes are just Tim.

As an unlikely friendship begins to blossom, and with circumstances repeatedly throwing them together, is Sunset Cottage where both Kate and Tim’s lives will really start?
