Welcome to the Hummingbird Hotel!
When Corfu’s newest hotelier Abbie Coleman is asked to host a Bakes & Beaches retreat for a group of Bake Off enthusiasts from a regional TV and radio station, she knows she needs as much help as she can get. Baking is not her forte, and with cupcakes, traybakes, pastries and showstoppers to co-ordinate – along with a whole host of terrifyingly high-octane water sports – she’s worried that her guests’ culinary creations will be more ‘curdled catastrophes’ than ‘tasty triumphs’. For any successful enterprise, preparation is key, so, along with her new assistant manager and all-round astrological guru Felix Morgan , Abbie sets about preparing a long and detailed To Do list.
But this is the Hummingbird Hotel, and the words ‘straightforward’ and ‘drama-free’ do not feature on the menu. So, when the salted caramel cupcakes are heavier on the salt than the caramel, and a guest’s expensive watch takes an unscheduled dip in the pool, Abbie must once again join forces with chef-turned-vineyard owner – and now fiancé – Nikos Angelopoulos , to unravel the mystery and maintain the hotel’s reputation for delivering beautiful bakes instead of mayhem and mistakes.
Can she turn burnt buns into sumptuous soufflés? Or will her future on Corfu be over before it’s begun?
Let Daisy James whisk you away to gorgeous Corfu with a feel-good festive read filled with sun, sea and a sprinkle of romance. Perfect for fans of Mandy Baggot, Sue Roberts & Sandy Barker.
Praise for the Hummingbird Hotel
Clare Balding
‘What a brilliant concept and a beautiful setting for a life in upheaval. It made me want to fly straight to Corfu, more to drink the wine than to actually try and run a hotel. A great cast of characters, and I thought their foibles and idiosyncrasies were displayed with humour and insight. It was also a reminder to never settle for second best, and be brave enough to embrace change, to completely turn your life around, if that’s what it takes.’
Ginger Book Geek ‘Escape to the Hummingbird Hotel was just the tonic I needed and I found myself chuckling away to myself throughout the book.’
Kel M. ‘This story will instantly lift your spirits and transport you to a gorgeous sunny location, a total breath of fresh air that left me feeling serene and eager to read more about the adventures of Abbie.’
Rachel Gilbey ‘I just loved everything about this book, it had me hooked and eager to absorb every last word.’”
