Blog Tour: Just the Way You Are by Beth Moran*

 

'When Olivia Tennyson – or Ollie to her friends – was sixteen, she wrote a Dream List of all the things she wanted for her life, including a happy marriage and a family. But at twenty-nine, Ollie is single, living at home with her over-protective and manipulative mother, and is feeling like her dreams are getting further out of reach!

It’s time for a change. 

It’s time to take matters into her own hands. 

Without telling her mum, or more importantly, asking her permission, Ollie finds the perfect place to start her new life. End Cottage has a duck-egg blue front door, a garden that leads to acres of forest, and definitely counts as her dream home.

Now all Ollie has to do is complete the rest of her list and find out who she really is, before she can imagine any romance coming into her life. After all, how is she going to find her dream man in the middle of a forest… '

This is the story of Olivia Tennyson or Ollie as she is known to her friends. Ollie's story is told over the course of 35 chapters, chapters that will zoom by while the reader enjoys this tale of self discovery.

Throughout this story Ollie is on a quest to figure out exactly who she is when she is on her own. Now I don't mean on her own as in single, though she is, I mean living on her own and not with her mother. The mother is just one of the background characters that are mentioned in this book. Now alongside the main story these background characters also have their own story that readers get to see play out. 

Some readers may find that they relate to the main character Ollie, which will increase how much they enjoy reading her story. A story where the main focus is character finding and loving themselves not someone else. Although romance is found in this story it is very much not the main focus. 

Now let me tell you about the Author Beth Moran, who is an author of four novels that includes the bestselling Christmas Every day. She is regularly features on BBC Radio Nottingham and is a trustee of the national women's network Free Range Chicks. Beth lives on the outskirts of Sherwood Forest.

Overall readers will be captivated with Ollie's story which is filled with self discovery and hope. This is perfect for readers who like the self discovery journey. I can't wait to take a look at the other books that Beth has published. You can get your copy HERE
