About the Book:
Funny, moving, and full of warmth, Island Calling follows vet Charlotte Walker, who has been welcomed into the hearts of the islanders on remote Tuga de Oro. Between days spent on the farms and nights with a new love interest, Charlotte has found herself happily retreating from real life back in London.
Just for now, obviously.
But then real life arrives with the force of a tropical storm: Charlotte’s mother, Lucinda Compton-Neville, has come to bring her daughter back to England, back to her career, and back to the life she thinks Charlotte is meant to be living.
Uplifting, beautifully observed, and full of humour and heart, Island Calling is a joyous summer read about mothers and daughters, holding on, letting go, and the magic of finding yourself somewhere unexpected.
Come for the island adventure, stay for the heart.
