This book is easy to fall in love with, it’s delightfully warm and captivating, with gripping notes of intrigue. Saskia returns to her grandparents home of Rosewood after two years spent avoiding her family, can she survive a golden wedding anniversary celebration intact, or will devastating secrets be revealed? Each chapter is headed by excerpts from books or diaries written by Saskia’s grandfather Nathanial. The rest of the family spill out from the pages and make their presence known, while Rosewood sits encircling them all within loving walls. Sophie Pembroke spins a mystery into an enthralling web, human frailties exist yet don't overpower, and stunning vintage dresses waft across the pages. ‘The Last Days of Summer’ is so very readable and engaging, so it’s the perfect companion to steal away with for a few hours. ~ Liz Robinson
