Synopsis

'Brenda Bowen's Enchanted August is a perfect summer read - for any time of the year' Everyone needs a place like Hopewell Cottage - a romantic holiday rental on a small, sunny island. For Rose and Lottie, it's a refuge from the frenzy of the school gates. For Beverly, it's a chance to say goodbye to two lost loves. And for disgraced movie star Caroline, it offers the anonymity she craves. But on tiny Little Lost Island, with its cocktail parties, tennis matches and Ladies' Association for Beautification, will they really find the answers to their very modern problems? `Delightful... I'm dreaming of blueberries and Maine lobster. We all need a sunny island or castle to which we can run away' Helen Simonson, author of MAJOR PETTIGREW'S LAST STAND

Media Reviews
The perfect summer read * Daily Mail *
Delightful... I'm dreaming of blueberries and Maine lobster. We all need a sunny island or castle to which we can run away * Helen Simonson, bestselling author of MAJOR PETTIGREW'S LAST STAND *
If the idea of escaping the real world for a month appeals to you, then this is the next best thing. The descriptions of the island are so beautiful that you can almost taste the lobster, smell the flowers, and feel the icy cold water on your skin * Heat *
Great fun -- Victoria Clark * Lady *
Enchanted August is a true charmer of a novel, written with humour, sensitivity, and a huge amount of heart. I fell in love with the glorious Maine setting and with the quirky and endearing characters who find themselves thrown together there. It's a perfect summer read - for any time of the year * Will Schwalbe, author of the New York Times-bestselling THE END OF YOUR LIFE BOOK CLUB *
Bowen has conjured up a delightful and inviting island summer complete with all the sights, sounds, smells, and tastes of Maine to create a feast for the senses...this feel-good story will make an enjoyable summer read for romance lovers * Booklist *
