With thanks to Rachel Random Resources for giving me the chance to be on the tour for this read.
What's shaking up the plot:
In the summer of 1960, eighteen-year-old Rose Featherstone took a trip to Memphis that changed her life. Now, Rose confesses to her granddaughter, Daisy, that she returned home with more than just memories all those years ago – she was carrying Elvis Presley’s child!
Daisy is sure the claim can’t be true, and yet, what if it is? When her grandmother passes away soon after her startling revelation and leaves Daisy with a ticket to Memphis, Tennessee, Daisy decides it’s time to discover the truth. She’s always struggled to fit in but this trip might just show her the benefits of being born to stand out. And especially when she meets Joe Cody, aka Officer Blue Eyes…
Bobs and Books honest review:
I am still adoring Shake It Up Beverley, and yet book 2 is here!
No need to worry about book 2 nerves with this author, she's knocked it out the park all over again!
Fun read- I am obsessed with Daisy's fashion which really brings her to life. I also adore the family names all being flowers. Feel light and free and get whisked away in Elvis territory where more than you think happens in the most gorgeous way.
A welsh setting that doesn't throw all the stereotypical welsh-isms down your throat is also very welcomed here.
Lots of laughter, love and light hearted reading. Blissful.
