Fooling in Love is an absolute delight. When Rachel walks out on her old life and rents a cottage by the beach she gets so much more than the breathing space she was looking for. This wonderful stand-alone book is full of colourful and interesting characters that you can’t help but love as soon as you meet them. It is charming, amusing, unpredictable and romantic with a fairy tale happy ever after. I definitely recommend this book, it is an unexpected treat.
I so love S J Crabb’s writing! Each time I think her stories can’t get any better but they always do! Fooling in Love beautifully captures the angst of heartache and betrayal, the struggle of finding yourself and yearning to be seen, the need to accept and be accepted, the beauty of art and of nature, the benefits of living in the moment and a small town, and the joys of friendship and love. I cherished each precious moment of this story and didn’t want it to end. A must read for sure and one I plan to return to as it’s that enjoyable!

Fooling In love: A funny & feel-good romantic comedy Love is complicated, until it is not. Fooling in love had be tied to my sofa and steaming mug of tea. Be silent world as I drool over Sally’s wonderful cake and the delectable choice of men Rebeca has to face. BTW please add a Map location for Perivale below so I can follow the trail home to where I belong, much love and respect to a book well though through and executed.S J Crabb
What a great story! The characters were funny, quirky & great friends. Real life of living in a small town. Had a hard time putting it down.

Absolutely delightful!
As always Ms. Crabb has put a smile on my face and given me a good case of the “warm fuzzies”. Seeking escape from the city Rachel escapes to a tiny seaside town of Perivale. Her neighbors are amazing in their talents and their success although keeping it on the QT. As life happens, she eventually has to decide if she wants to return to her previous life or not. Great characters, story, and writing will pull you in.

So, I got this book free in exchange for a review. I have never accepted an offer like this before because I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings if I don’t like the book. I accepted this offer as I cannot get enough of SJ Crabb’s books. Fooling in Love is a fun read with quirky characters that make you wish they were your friends. If you want a fun read in a town where you wished you lived and want an afternoon escape, please read this book. I guarantee you will be wanting to read all of her books. On the other hand, if you want to be sorry and want to lose out on a great read, don’t read this book.

Firstly, let me state that I don’t normally read romances, but I had previously read, and enjoyed, a comedy by this author, and when I was offered an ARC of this book I thought why not, it will make a change from the thrillers, mysteries and so on that I normally read. But I didn’t have great expectations.
Well I was surprised, I actually thoroughly enjoyed the book, the characters are really well drawn, three dimensional and very believable, the story is clever and original and I also love the location descriptions. I did find the ending a little predictable, but there were some surprises in the plot, so overall I think that it is definitely worth 5 stars.
