Today is publication day for The Gift of Cockleberry Bay, the final part in @nicolamay1& #39;s bestselling trilogy. The Cockleberry Bay books are a publishing phenomenon. If you don& #39;t know about them, we& #39;ve put together a thread to introduce the series

The Corner Shop in Cockleberry Bay is the story of Rosa, a rough-around-the-edges Londoner who is left a mystery legacy: a derelict shop in a beautiful Devon village. Not allowed to sell it, she moves to the seaside to run the place – with various adventures along the way (2/10)
To say that readers loved it doesn& #39;t say the half of it. For a month of last year, Corner Shop was the UK& #39;s bestselling Kindle book, across all genres. It was Amazon& #39;s second top-selling ebook of 2019, beaten only by @amateuradam& #39;s blockbusting This Is Going to Hurt (3/10)
What made this achievement all the more remarkable was that The Corner Shop in Cockleberry Bay was self-published. Here& #39;s how the Daily Mail wrote up @nicolamay1& #39;s extraordinary story (4/10) https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-7380165/Chick-lit-author-tops-Amazon-charts-self-published-books-inspired-heartbreak.html">https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/ar...
At the beginning of last year, we welcomed @nicolamay1 to Lightning Books, and we now publish the paperback versions of the Cockleberry series (the first was quickly followed by a sequel, Meet Me in Cockleberry Bay, which also won rave reviews) (5/10) http://eye-books.com/books/meet-me-in-cockleberry-bay">https://eye-books.com/books/mee...
And the final part is out today

While @AudioKilledTBM says: & #39;Once again @nicolamay1 seamlessly weaves together romance, humour and mystery. It& #39;s the sweet satisfying seaside escape I needed& #39; (7/10) https://audiokilledthebookmark.com/2020/04/02/the-gift-of-cockleberry-bay-by-nicola-may-book-review-rararesources-nicolamay/">https://audiokilledthebookmark.com/2020/04/0...
