Rosie’s #Bookreview Team #RBRT Sandra reviews #RomCom Under The Cherry tree by @LilacMills

Today’s team review is from Sandra.

Sandra has been reading Under The Cherry Tree by Lilac Mills

Jenni owns a dog grooming parlour – Telling Tails – and would dearly love to expand her business to include dog behaviour and agility classes, but for this she would need larger premises. She can afford it but would have to spend her share of the compensation money she received following her dad’s fatal accident, something she is reluctant to do. Until one day her mum brings her a brochure for the perfect property – Cherry Tree Farm – and she just has to take a look…

The main character in this story is really Jenni’s dog, a Westie called Millie; she is a great judge of character, spotting the true nature of the men Jenni gets involved with long before she does.

This light-hearted romantic comedy is well written with a believable range of supporting characters and would be a very enjoyable way to pass the time, especially if you love dogs.

Thanks to the author for a free copy that I review as part of Rosie’s Book Review Team.

Book Description

“My dog didn’t like men. Actually that was a lie – she didn’t like the men I chose. The only ones who rocked her world had been my father (who was no longer with us), Ross (who was gay), and the butcher on the high street (for obvious reasons).”

When Jenni Meadows has the opportunity to expand her dog-grooming business she takes it, and when a nice man appears on her horizon but fails to make any sparks fly, she decides she has enough on her plate with her business without adding a boyfriend into the mix.

Besides, Millie doesn’t like him and when her dog doesn’t like a man, Jenni knows all about it. So why does Millie take a very strange liking to the new vet, especially since he has a taciturn expression, wears a wedding ring, and wields a needle?

Under the Cherry Tree is a tale of love and hope, waggy tails, and cold noses.

About the author

Lilac spends all her time writing, or reading, or thinking about writing or reading, often to the detriment of her day job, her family, and the housework. She apologises to her employer and her loved ones, but the house will simply have to deal with it!

She calls Worcester home, though she would prefer to call somewhere hot and sunny home, somewhere with a beach and cocktails and endless opportunities for snoozing in the sun…

When she isn’t hunched over a computer or dreaming about foreign shores, she enjoys creating strange, inedible dishes in the kitchen, accusing her daughter of stealing (she meant to say “borrowing”) her clothes, and fighting with her husband over whose turn it is to empty the dishwasher.
