My only slight criticism was the way that things worked out in the end, especially with the villain of the story. The whole denouement just seemed a bit contrived and things worked out a little too neatly, with all plot elements stacked tidily in their boxes. However, this is escapist fiction, so I won't be too harsh, especially as I liked Holly and wanted things to work out well for her.
Fans of this book will enjoy [[The Hotel on Mulberry Bay by Melissa Hill]]. Like Larkford, the book is set in a delightful village where everyone knows each other and nothing remains a secret for long. For more from Parkes, try [[Maybe Tomorrow by Penny Parkes|Maybe Tomorrow]].
