Today I’m joining the blog tour for The Prosecco Pact. My review is written with thanks to Zoe O’Farrell for inviting me on the tour and to the author for my copy of the book.

Blurb:

Three Women, Three Promises, One Pact!

Lydia Beaumont married the boy of her dreams but he has since become the man of her nightmares.
She needs to find a new life.

Grace Mitchell has dedicated her life to her career, losing friends along the way to her ambition.
She needs to get a life.

Debbie Stanford has been engaged for a year but is no closer to setting her wedding date.
She just wants to start married life.

On a cold, blustery January night, they each promise to change their lives and seal the deal over their glasses of Prosecco.

However, the best made pacts of mice and women have been known to go awry…

Review:

You can probably tell from the cover and the blurb that The Prosecco Pact isn’t my usual type of read. However, Kiltie Jackson is a talented writer, whose prose is easy to read and familiar, and I raced through the novel as I wanted to know what the outcome would be.

The author has created such wonderful characters that it’s impossible not to become involved in their stories and cheer them on as they try to fulfil their element of the “prosecco pact.” I loved getting to know Lydia, Grace and Debbie and, as they are in a similar age group to me, I related really well to their hopes and dreams and insecurities. Kiltie Jackson writes with a healthy dose of humour, which makes the overall feel of the novel really uplifting. I loved the relationship between the ladies, particularly as certain events made them grow closer as the novel progressed.

Although The Prosecco Pact is ultimately lighthearted, Kiltie Jackson does introduce some more serious issues, which definitely add depth to the story. The themes are very relevant in today’s world and the author approaches them with warmth and sensitivity.

The Prosecco Pact is available from Amazon.
