Summary from Goodreads
When Allegra North
parted from first love Francis after a decade together, she poured all her
regret into a letter. He didn't reply. A year later, her job brings her back to
the beautiful Devon coast where romance first
blossomed and she hopes that they can start a new chapter. As summer storms
circle, the exes juggle rebellious parents, vengeful family members and a very
reluctant celebrity author who holds the key to everybody's future . . . The
Love Letter is a wonderfully warm comedy of mistaken identities, new loves and
old flame
I am a huge fan of Fiona Walker and jumped at the chance to
read her latest novel ‘The Love Letter’.
Allegra North (known as Legs) is a Literary Agent’s Assistant
who is having an affair with her boss. Before she began working, she had been
in a long romance with her childhood sweetheart; Francis Protheroe. When she
called it off, Francis seemed devastated, Allegra also had second thoughts and
poured her feelings into a letter. However, Francis didn’t ever reply.
One year later and Allegra is sent back to the Protheroe
home on the Devon coast on behalf of the agency and demanding client and
bestselling author Gordon Lapis. However, Allegra is not at all prepared for
some changes that await her.
I enjoyed reading this book so much. It has some hilarious
moments and had me laughing out loud in places. There is quite a bit of mystery
surrounding the true identity of Gordon Lapis and the correspondence between
Allegra, Gordon and Kelly his PA is so funny.
This is a beautifully written novel with a vivid setting,
larger than life characters and a plot that will leave you desperate to find
out what happens next.
This is a big book, but I sailed through enjoying every
moment. I can’t wait to read the next Fiona Walker novel!
Thank you to Sphere for sending me a copy to review.
