Catch Me If You Cannes Part 4 by Lisa Dickenson Blog Tour



Today is the last day of Catch Me If You Cannes Blog Tour, yes feeling quite sad because I've enjoyed being part of this blog tour, also because I loved reading Catch Me If You Cannes so much.

If you think Part 3 of Catch Me If You Cannes had plenty of drama then you haven't read Part 4 yet!
Just one week ago, Jess was safely tucked away in her quiet seaside home, running her cafe and not really doing much of anything. So what on earth has happened between then and now that has her stealing a superyacht from Cannes marina?

Leo. Leo happened.

Jess doesn't want to believe what everybody is saying about him. He's her Leo, with his lazy smile, soft kisses and firm hugs, and she knows he's a good man. But she can't deny that something isn't quite right so she just needs some time to figure things out. All Jess did was fall in love with a boy who liked Nutella. How has it come to this?

Well everything just gets even more complicated for Jess in the last part of Catch Me If You Cannes. She is out to prove Leo isn't a drug lord which Bryony has said he is, but things just get ever so confusing and even more drama happens in Jess' life. . . I don't want to say much more because I just think you should buy this and read for yourself!

You will most certainly laugh (be careful of reading in public) and will be hoping Jess gets her happily ever after which is what you want in any chick lit book at the end! The whole series is just pure fantastic with plenty of laughs throughout!

Just go buy this fab book right away!
Want even better news? The complete novel will be out in Paperback on 23rd June 2016! woop woop!!

Thank You Lisa and Clara at Little Brown for letting me part of this amazing blog tour! I've enjoyed the book ever so much! When's the next book?
You Fantastic Lady!

I reward Catch Me If You Cannes 5 fantastic, amazing, sizzling hot shimmering stars.

Catch Me If You Cannes Part 2 & Part 3 by Lisa Dickenson


Part 2 Blurb

Jess had been feeling on top of the world - she'd had the best night out with Bryony, making lots of fabulous new friends, and she'd MET A BOY! Now, all of a sudden, her carefully constructed (if slightly exaggerated) facade is about to come tumbling down. She's had a taste of how the other half live and she's not ready to give it up just yet - especially if it means also giving up Leo. But how long can Jess and Bryony continue pulling the wool over everyone's eyes before they're in too deep?


Part 3 Blurb
Things could not be going better between Jess and Leo. Every moment they spend together is lovely and sunkissed and full of anticipation. Jess hasn't felt like this in a very long time and she doesn't want it to end. Sure, Leo is a bit vague about certain areas of his life but that doesn't mean anything . . .

Suddenly Jess's perfect holiday romance isn't looking so great and she has a choice to make - should she ignore what Bryony is telling her and keep living the dream, or should she run the risk of losing Leo in order to prove her friend wrong?


My Review

I am so happy to be part of Catch Me If You Cannes Blog Tour! Today I am reviewing Part 2 & Part 3 of the book! A huge thank you to Clara at Little Brown for asking me to part of Lisa's new fantastic book.

I have loved every book by Lisa and she is just getting better and better! Lisa definitely knows how to write the perfect character with plenty of things going on that is going to make you laugh lots!

So whats happening ? well Jess has met a boy..yes a gorgeous at that, made lots of new friends and has felt how the other life lives now she may have to go back to her normal self but will she want to?
Jess and Leo are getting on like a house on fire, you could say she has never felt like this before and doesn't want this holiday to stop...but then her best friend Bryony drops a bombshell and Jess doesn't quite know whether to believe her or try and prove her Best Friend wrong about Leo?

Jess is such a funny character, she is just plain jane but as soon as she came to Cannes with her best friend Bryony and has made lots of new friends who like to party, spend lots of money and are in the crowds with celebrities.  She gets her self in some disastrous scenario's but gives you plenty of giggles! Jess & Leo are so cute together! Their love for Nutella & Crepes is so cute and throughout the book I'm rooting for them to get together! 

I cannot fault Catch me If You Cannes at all, It is a perfect summer read and I couldn't put it down!
If you want a book to make you giggle throughout, then your at the right place! Catch Me If You Cannes has plenty of drama, crazy moments, a bit of romance and a dream life anybody would be jelous of Jess & Bryony!

 
I reward Catch Me If You Cannes 5 fantastic, amazing, sizzling hot shimmering stars.
Lisa You are fantastic!! 
Catch Part 4 next Friday!

Catch Me If You Cannes Part 1 by Lisa Dickenson Blog Tour

Jess has decided it's time to get out of her comfort zone and live a little. So when her best friend Bryony, a journalist on a gossip magazine, is sent to cover the Cannes Film Festival, Jess decides to seize the day and go along for the ride. Two weeks of glitz, glamour and exclusive entry into celeb-filled parties is just the kind of adventure Jess needs.

Reality soon bites though when Jess and Bryony find they're staying in a dingy hotel far away from all the action and Bryony's expenses budget barely covers a glass of local wine. Undeterred, the two women are determined to live like the elite and enjoy one fancy night out to begin their holiday. So what if they have to tell a few white lies along the way? It's just this once. No harm done . . . right?


I am part of the blog tour for Lisa's new novel Catch me if you Cannes and I want to thank Clara at Little Brown for asking me to part of this tour. I am such a fan of Lisa Dickenson's books and this didn't disappoint either!

I loved this so much!  Catch Me If You Cannes will have you giggling all the way through! Let's just say Part 1 of CMIYC just gets started and Jess and Bryony are already getting in trouble when they arrive!

I don't want to give too much as You have to enjoy this is fun & fantastic book right away!
Catch Me If You Cannes is a perfect book to take on your summer holidays but make sure you wear a huge hat to cover your face from all the giggles and deserves fantastic 5 star rating!

You Had Me At Merlot by Lisa Dickenson Blog Tour







Today I am so grateful and happy to be part of this wonderful new book by Lisa Dickenson. Lisa's first book is The Twelve dates of Christmas which i haven't got round to reading just yet..oops! You had me at Merlot is her second novel which is in 4 parts. I just love the covers for books so much, its so bright and cheerful, Definitely needs to be made paperback and will stand out lots!


Elle and Laurie are both single, they're not having babies anytime soon and their weekends aren't filled with joyful meetings about mortgages. Elle is fine with this, she's like independant life, loves her job and has no desire to walk down the aisle soon. Laurie wants it all...RIGHT NOW!!

Laurie begs Elle to go with her on a singles holiday to a beautiful vineyard in Tuscany, Elle is unsure. You Had Me at Merlot Holidays promises crisp sunshine, fun and a chance to stir up some sizzling romance. Elle has no intention of swapping her perfectly lovely life for someone else's idea of her Mr Perfect, but ten days under the Italian sun with her best friend and lashings of wine? How bad could that be?



I loved You had me at Merlot from the start, I knew I was going to be giggling all the way through, Elle and Laurie reminded me of myself and my best friend Kaylie and the type of things we would get up on holiday is exactly what Elle and Laurie do.
There is a few bombshells throughout the books which may make you go OOOOhhh! I know i did hehe! I giggled about all the other singletons on the You had me at Merlot too, some of them were just plain weird! I loved George! He definitely made me giggle and trying to woo Elle was funny because she was definitely not interested.

If you want a hunky man to drool over in this book? then Jamie is the man...wow I was imagining a hunky fella in the vineyard who i would certainly want to bond with homemade chilli wine and chocolate..Yummy!

You Had me at Merlot is a feel good book with plenty of laughters and drooling over hunky stallion ;-) You feel will nice and warm, may even wanting to book a holiday to Tuscany right away!
Lisa has a way with her writing that is just brilliant! She instantly has you liking the characters, the destination and the whole feel of the book.
Thank You Clara Diaz and Lisa Dickenson for being part of this wonderful blog tour! I'm definitely going to purchase the twelve dates of christmas and start reading now heehee!

♥5 perfect summer stars♥
