Description:
Meteorologist Sky Matthews does not like surprises.
Sky monitors her life like she does the weather, carefully and with a scientific eye. So, when she misses out on her dream job abroad and finds herself with no choice but to take a position on a tidal island off the Cornish harbour town of St Felix instead, she feels completely at sea. Worse still, she has to work alongside TV weatherman Sonny Samuels, who barely knows his storms from his tsunamis.
It doesn’t take long for Sky to become enchanted by the strange weather patterns over St Felix. Sonny is convinced they link to local folklore, but Sky knows her science too well to fall for that. Until she meets Walter, a local weather watcher with no qualifications beyond a lifetime of experience and Sky is forced to question everything she thought she knew about the weather, herself… and Sonny.

Why We Liked It
We love Ali McNamara’s books about St Felix and in Cornish Clouds and Silver Lining Skies she has extended our love to another magical Cornish island. Her storytelling is always superb, but this time she also sensitively incorporates her personal experiences into the life of one of her lead characters.
A magical, uplifting and beautiful story set in one of our favourite parts of the country.
We absolutely loved it! Highly Recommended!
