An old friend…
Until the arrival of Joe Carter – the brother of Esther’s best friend, Danni. Joe is also newly single and still as gorgeous as ever, but Esther can’t lose her heart to Joe. If it all went wrong, she’d lose two of her best friends.

Are they brave enough to take a risk on love, or are they destined to remain friends forever?
📖 My Review...
Having read the first book in this series last year this has been a welcome return to the Cornish Country Hospital to meet again with characters who are now as familiar as old friends. Nurse Esther Hamilton is still struggling with unwanted attention from her ex-fiance, juggling her demanding job in the Accident and Emergency department at the hospital and at the same time worrying abut her parents who seem to have lost the spark from their relationship.
Finding Friends at the Cornish Hospital certainly continues the series with a lovely warm hearted story which looks at the bonds of friendship and of what happens when fate intervenes. With some darker moments which are quite tense and a close look at the delicate nature of dealing with mental health issues the author doesn't shy away from difficult topics and yet manages to keep everything very light and readable. There are some laugh out loud funny moments as well as the sad stuff but all credit to this talented author for including both light and shade.
I race through these stories in day, not because they are light on content but, quite simply, once I start I can't put them down. Finding Friends at the Cornish Hospital is no exception and whilst it is a definite continuation from the first book, it can also be read as a standalone story.
