This is a beautiful and quaint tale of middle aged love and all the ups and downs that come with it!

A really enjoyable read with funny one-liners along the way and I fell in love with Jimmy and Pete as I became engrossed in their blossoming relationship. Highly recommend this book.

Overture and Beginners. Beautiful book! I read it yesterday, only stopped to pour a glass of... I felt as if a special acquaintance was becoming a friend by sharing their story. It was beautifully written, so much emotion without any yuckyness. It told of life well lived. Thanks.

I was lucky enough to receive an advance copy of this book after I joined the author's Facebook page as a result of stumbling across another of her novels, the delightful A Twist of Starlight. Her latest offering does not disappoint - it is a lovely, thoughtful and touching story combining romance, comedy and tragedy in a perfect mix. I am an avid reader who enjoys a wide variety of genres and I genuinely can't wait to read her next offering.

This book tells the story of love between real people with their faults, lumps and bumps and the problems life throws at us. I loved it.

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this story. It’s not something I would normally read. But I have to stay I really enjoyed it.

When life gives you lemons make lemonade and that’s what Allen “jimmy” learned to do. After one bad relationship too many he decides enough is enough. That is until someone unexpectedly comes into his life. After a little hiccup along the way they form a beautiful friend ship .

The story is told from Jimmy’s point of view he tells it’s like he is sitting beside you reminiscing about the past. About his relationship the his manger, his significant other and just life in general. It’s a slow burn with lots of stuff that gets in the way but you know that old saying is true love conquers all.

I was offered an advanced reader copy from a book lovers facebook group of this authors page turner romantic novel. It was such an enjoyable story with very likeable characters, as well as being well paced with a natural progression of the plot line. Yes there is romance, but not explicitly. There are surprises, twists and turns and the up and down of everyday normal life thrown in with humour and the deep seated love story. This is a totally different perspective and I would highly recommend Overture and Beginners for everyone who loves a romance.
