Fun as usual!
This book follows the premise that “it takes a village” to tell a story. A house of bachelors, a single mom, a work- away husband, and a famous actor w/family. I enjoyed the characters, the storylines, & the humor.

A small holiday in the middle of the week
I love Jill Mansell’s stories. I think what I like most about them, apart from the characters that are fun to read and get to know as the stories progress, is that that are like small holidays. They transport me to an altogether less stressful place than the one I usually occupy with kids and work and studying. ‘Head over Heels’ is no exception. It’s a charming, funny story about finding love where you least expect it, and finding love that seemed to be lost, but wasn’t. The characters are believable, and the story moves along at a steady pace, so you don’t get bored. I didn’t want to stop reading until the end, and that for me is the mark of a good read, even if I could kind of see the ending coming a mile off. Then again, that is another thing I love about these books – no prolonged and unresolved suspense, and even though I can see what will happen to the characters, it’s lovely and satisfying to read when it does. I would recommend this as a holiday read, or even as a midweek escape.

Just a Meh…
Full Disclosure: I listened to the Audio Version of this book. I adore Jill Mansell and have, I think, read all of the titles published in the US plus a few others. While I found this book entertaining overall the sheer amount of characters and story lines left me frequently confused. There were multiple times during my listen when a specific character was mentioned, Felicity for example, and I had to think about who Felicity was. Plus I kept confusing Jessie and Jamie, I mean, not when the actual situations were described, I cottoned on pretty quickly but there were moments where they said Jessie and I was thinking the third bachelor roommate and not the single mom. Overall, I didn’t hate it, but I just thought there was so much happening. Could have split this into two separate stories.

So many plots, so many characters. All wonderful. Love Jill Mansell’s writing, stories, and this genre.

Head Over Heels for this one
Many years ago, I began to order British books from Amazon UK. One of the first novels that I received was by Jill Mansell. I continued to enjoy her light, funny and romantic reads as late night books. More recently, the novels have been available in the US through Sourcebooks. Head Over Heels, my most recent read, reminds me of a modern Shakespearean comedy as couples come together, move apart and come together again. If you enjoy a fun read, all the while knowing that all will turn out well, this could be for you.

Best Chick-Lit author!
I’ve read all of Jill Mansell’s published books. What a hoot! Don’t let the number of pages daunt you; the books are an easy read and keep you turning page after page. Love these!

Unexpectedly interesting
I have read many of this author’s books but wasn’t prepared for the twist and turns this story took. It was a fun read that kept me wondering what was coming next.

this book is not like the other jill mansell books, as it isn’t all about glamor or high flighing people. the book is nice and calm set in a village that has nothing much happening.the story starts of with the ex boyfriend (a successfull actor) of the main lady turning up in the village with his familly.also there are some entertaining side stories about love and friendship. a lovely book to read before going to bed.

Before getting my Kindle white, I read all Jill Mansell books in paperbacks. Now I am reading them again on my Kindle. Her books are great for easy reading, such as on holiday, great escapism, I love her characters some of them I would love to be like. Suitable for all ages.
