Review: Art & Soul by Claire Huston*

 


'There’s no problem Becky Watson can’t fix. Except her own love life…

Struggling single mother Becky Watson longs to revive her career as a life-fixer, working miracles to solve her clients’ problems, no matter how big or small. Since the birth of her two-year-old son she has been stuck preventing wedding fiascos for the richest and rudest residents of the Comptons, a charming, leafy area of southern England known for its artistic heritage.

So when semi-reclusive local artist Charlie Handren reluctantly hires Becky to fix his six-year creative slump, she’s delighted to set him up with a come-back exhibition and Rachel Stone, the woman of his dreams.

Though they get off to a rocky start, Becky and Charlie soon become close. But as the beautiful Rachel becomes Charlie’s muse, Becky is forced to wonder: will giving Charlie everything he wants mean giving up her own happily ever after?'

This is the story of Becky and Charlie, which is told over 53 Chapters. What interesting chapters they are. From the very beginning of this book readers will find themselves intrigued and interested. Not only by the characters but also by the things that are revealed later in the story. The readers may start with questions but throughout this book they will all be answered. 

This book is not just seperated by Chapters, but the author has also used the chapters to move the months on. Don’t worry though it is done in a way where the reader doesn’t feel like they have missed anything. 

Throughout the book the point of view switches between both Becky and Charlie meaning the reader is given a very full picture of what is going on, not only in the story but also the characters heads. As well as this the author also allows the reader to find out more about the more background characters and not just the basic information. 

The characters of Becky and Charlie themselves could not be more different. Becky is a single mum who is very organized, where Charlie is a bit of a mess. This story is well written, with chapters that vary in length. Some are quite long while others are short. This difference is brilliant for readers as the changing lengths mean that sometimes they fly through the chapters while others take a little longer. It is also full of moments that will leave readers laughing out loud. There are many mentions of cake, which will leave the readers wanting the recipes, well at least this reader wants the recipes.

Overall I loved the story. Something unique about this story is that the romance is more of a slow burn instead of an intense quick burn. This story was absolutely amazing and I am very happy that I did not miss this book. It can be described as a brilliant mix of love, art and cake!This feature is very refreshing for this reader.

  7. reviewsdir It should be noted that whilst ordering papers for sale at paper writing service, you can get unkind attitude. In case you feel that the bureau is trying to cheat you, don't buy term paper from it.
