'Always with Love' is the sequel to Giovanna's debut novel 'Billy with Me' (you can read my review of that book here) and continues the story of Sophie and her filmstar boyfriend Billy
Buskin.
This will probably be a pretty short "review" because I read this book while on holiday in Ireland at the start of July, straight after finishing 'Dream a Little Dream' (also by Giovanna Fletcher) and so I don't 100% remember my thoughts on it, and I stupidly got so caught up in the read that I didn't take any notes at the time! But I thought it was worth documenting all the same, so here goes ...While undoubtedly perfect as a chilled out romantic read, many of the flaws I found in the first book continued onto this book, such as the annoying nature of Sophie's jealous character.
In addition, I was a little disappointed by the lack of story, other than the pair travelling back and forward from the US and struggling with being apart and jealous of one another, I didn't find it to have that much of a storyline.
While the ending was a bit predictable, it was exceptionally satisfying and sweet.
To be honest I prefer the other characters in this book to the starring couple! Some of the side stories are quite intriguing.
No my favourite of Giovanna's novel series, if anything the Christmas novella 'Christmas with Billy and Me' was my favourite of the set, but worth a wee read all the same and pretty perfect ass a chilled holiday read.
