If you enjoy women’s fiction reads, then you are in for a treat with this week’s Top Author.  Caroline James writes feel-good, heartwarming and funny books that you just love to curl up with. She’s a wonderful lady and is so supportive of other writers. I always feel that she leaves some sparkle wherever she goes.

Some recent reviews of her books say:

‘A genuinely warm feel-good story.’

‘More please!’

‘ Brilliant writing, brilliant read’

‘Couldn’t put it down!’

Coffee Tea the Caribbean & Me

 I’ve chosen this book because most of us are unable to travel this summer and this book enables readers to jet off on a virtual holiday, to the sunshine island of Barbados. The book is pure escapism, as described by one review: “Loss, friendship, finding love and starting over, make it a relatable, and captivating read.”

From Caroline:

When I’m not writing I make time to relax by rising early twice a week and heading to a lovely lake, about a five-minute drive from where I live. The purpose? Not to walk and enjoy the countryside but to swim in the water and experience the exhilaration of being at one with nature. Wild-water swimming and bobbing about with the ducks or swimming alongside a heron is a wonderful way to chill out and plan the day’s writing.

“A story about friendship and loss…is there hope for those of a certain age?”

‘The time to be happy is now…’ Jo remembers her late husband’s words but is struggling to face the lonely future that lies ahead. Heartbroken, she finds herself alone with ghostly memories at Kirkton House – a Cumbrian Manor that until recently, she ran as a thriving hotel. Middle-age and widowhood loom and Jo determines to sell up and start again, despite protestations from Hattie, her colourful friend. Hattie convinces Jo to postpone any life-changing decisions by enjoying a Caribbean holiday and their escapade sets off a course of events that brings madness and mayhem to Jo. Confused and anxious for her future, can her life really begin again?
