About this ebook

Sunday Times bestseller Carole Matthews is at her outstanding best. A heart-warming and poignant novel of romance, family and second chances.

Christie Chapman is a single mum who spends her days commuting to her secretarial job in London and looking after her teenage son, Finn. It's not an easy life but Christie finds comfort in her love of crafting, and spends her spare time working on her beautiful creations. From intricately designed cards to personalised gifts, Christie's flair for the handmade knows no bounds and it's not long before opportunity comes knocking.

Christie can see a future full of hope and possibility for her and Finn - and if the handsome Max is to be believed, one full of love too. It's all there for the taking. And then, all of sudden, her world is turned upside down.

Christie knows that something has to give, but can she really give up her dreams and the chance of real love? Will Christie find her happy ending in . . . Paper Hearts and Summer Kisses.

As a crafter myself, I felt a bit of a kinship with Christie, the main character of this book. I also enjoyed how it was written in the first person from Christie’s perspective. I’ve really enjoyed all of Carole’s books that I’ve read so far, and this one didn’t let me down either. I find it so easy to get lost in the worlds of her characters and find it hard to put her books down once I’ve started reading.

It is a rollercoaster.. relatable and down-to-earth, many twists but a happy ending... I loved reading it and was miffed when the book ended..felt a couple hundred more chapters would've been also received quite as well as the ones in the book..
