I've got a lovely giveaway for you! You can win a copy of the fab "Last Dance in Havana" by Rosanna Ley which was published this month. I received a copy* for review and you can see my thoughts below.
I'm a huge fan of Rosanna's books. This one would make perfect summer holiday reading.
The story goes from Cuba in 1958 to Bristol in 2012 and is absolutely un-put-downable.
Sixteen year old Eliza meets Duardo in a club in downtown Havana where they dance the rumba and Eliza falls head over heels in love.
Grace has a difficult relationship with her father who she blames for her mother's death. Her husband is desperate for them to start a family but Grace is just not sure. She is very friendly with Theo, her husband's friend, a Cuban born magician.
The descriptions and feelings are so real with evocative and entwined storylines with believable characters (I especially liked Eliza). Will Eliza ever be truly happy and in love again and will Grace find out the truth about her mother and be able to truly move on..
One of my readers can win their very own copy - the giveaway is open world wide. Good Luck!
I hope I've done it correctly, I never can tell! I've purchased The Saffron Trail - an actual paperback copy - and it's on my shelf waiting patiently. I'm looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of her books but this looks a good place to start!
ReplyDeleteooh, I haven't read this authors work yet but they look fab, especially this one and "return to Mandalay" will def be investigating further!
ReplyDeleteI've never read any of her books but would love to give her books a try.

ReplyDeleteI've not actually heard of Rosanna Ley before but I love the sound of this book - I love stories that swap between two time periods :)
