Happy Easter to you all! Today, I’m hosting my stop for the book tour of The Bay Of Lost Souls by Kiltie Jackson. Thanks to ZooLoo’s Book Tours and Kiltie Jackson for the copy of the book to write an honest review.
Is it possible to rid to move on from a dark past or will it always lurk in the shadows?
Perrie Lacey arrives in the quaint seaside town of Broatiescomb Bay laden with luggage, two cats and a desire for six months of solitude. The remote cottage she’s rented up on the cliff-top should guarantee her that.
Morgan Daniels, and his five-year-old daughter, Daisy, have been managing just fine since the death of his wife and her mother two years before. He’s content with being a twosome and has no intention of changing that any time soon.
When Perrie and Morgan bang into each other, quite literally, within thirty minutes of her arrival, the plans she had for a quiet existence go out the window.
As the weeks pass, Perrie and Morgan find themselves drawn to each other despite their efforts to push against the invisible force pulling them together.
Perrie, however, is carrying a secret she cannot share for doing so will put her new-found happiness at risk.
How heavy does a secret need to be to tear you apart?
Kiltie Jackson is an author whom I haven’t come across previously. This book sounded like a great read, and the cover just finished me of, so in I went. I didn’t know that it would be a journey I would be so invested in at the start, but I was, and I loved it!
Perrie has upped sticks and arrived in the seaside town of Broatiescomb Bay. Along with her two cats, Timothy and George, she plans on six months of solitude in the remote cottage she has rented. She has no plans for socialising or making friends, that’s until she meets Morgan and his five year old, Daisy.
From there, even though they both try to push against the magnetism that draws them to each other. They can’t manage to keep away. The only issue is that Perrie is keeping a secret. One that could threaten the happiness she seems to have stumbled upon.
The trip to Broatsiecomb Bay was fabulous! Perrie was a character I loved getting to know. She was so believable and had me intrigued with what she was holding back. The chemistry between Perrie and Morgan almost crackled with energy, even if they attempted to deny it.
The community in Broatsiecomb Bay just felt so real and gave me the seaside vibes totally. Daisy was a child who had the gift of making me smile constantly. Such a gorgeous girly. To be honest, this was a story that gave me the gift of a seaside break from the warmth of my front room on a cold and wet day.
The mystery of Perrie’s secret added another layer to this well written tale from Kiltie Jackson. I must say I am going to check her other books and add them to my teetering book pile. I’m glad I have found yet another author who can weave a tale that holds me until I turn the last page.

Author Bio
Kiltie Jackson spent her childhood years growing up in Scotland. Most of these early years were spent in and around Glasgow although for a short period of time, she wreaked havoc at a boarding school in the Highlands.
By the age of seventeen, she had her own flat which she shared with a couple of cats for a few years while working as a waitress in a cocktail bar (she’s sure there’s a song in there somewhere!) and serving customers in a fashionable clothing outlet before moving down to London to chalk up a plethora of experiences which are now finding their way into her writing.
Once she’d wrung the last bit of fun out of the smokey capital, she moved up to the Midlands and now lives in Staffordshire with one grumpy husband and another six feisty felines.
Her little home is known as Moggy Towers even though, despite having plenty of moggies, there are no towers! The cats kindly allow her and Mr Mogs to share their home as long as the mortgage continues to be paid.
Since the age of three, Kiltie has been an avid reader although it was many years later before she decided to put pen to paper – or fingers to keyboard – to begin giving life to the stories in her head.
Her debut novel was released in September 2017 and her fourth book, ‘A Timeless Lovestyle’ was a US Amazon bestseller in Time Travel Romance.
Kiltie loves to write fiery and feisty female characters and puts the blame for this firmly on the doorsteps of Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables and George Kirrin from The Famous Five.
When asked what her best memories are, Kiltie will tell you:
1. Queuing up overnight outside the Glasgow Apollo to buy her Live-Aid ticket.
2. Being at Live-Aid.
3. Winning an MTV competition to meet Bon Jovi in Sweden. (Although, if Mr Mogs is in earshot, the latter is changed to her wedding day.)
Her main motto in life used to be “Old enough to know better, young enough not to care!” But that has since been replaced with “Too many stories, not a fast enough typist!”
