I'm such a fan of Kate Perry, and just love her Laurie Heights series. So when I discovered she was going to start a new series with new characters, in a new location I was excited.Rosalind Summerhill is stylish, strong independent, and knows what she wants. She is a wedding dress designer who has returned home to London for her father's funeral who died in a car crash with his mistress.Not having the best relationship with her family all Rosalind wants to do is go to the funeral, pay her respects, and leave without family drama. However, that's easier said than done when a missing will means she has to stay, and help her sister protect their mothers future.Rosalind meets Nick Long who is at the funeral with his sister Summer. Nick is hot sexy and a good guy. Sparks fly between the two, and Rosalind knows Nick is just what she wants and needs, and he feels the same way. I liked Nick he, and Rosalind are a great couple, and love the banter they share. His feelings to Rosalind are genuine, but unbeknown to Rosalind Nick has reluctantly gotten caught up in a crazy plan of his sister, and so he's not entirely honest with her, and has few secrets of his own.I loved the storyline; it was a fun easy read about family, love, secrets, and forgiveness with plenty of romance, sexiness, with some heart warming moments that was not to high on the drama and angst. It had everything I love about a Kate's books. The history element of the book, which I was not expecting, was a nice surprise made me feel that I was reading a modern day romance, and a historical romance at the same time. I loved reading about the Summerhill family history, and their traditions.Love the supporting characters I enjoyed getting to know Rosalind's sisters, Beatrice, Portia, Viola, summer, Titania, and Imogene. Their antics in finding the will and their sibling bickering made me laugh so many times. I'm looking forward to reading their stories as the series continues. And in true Kate style there was a side storyline, which was a sweet, and touching about the relationship dilemmas of a character called Em.Overall I loved this book I knew Kate would disappoint me. I loved her writing, her characters, the pace and the flow of the story. I knew that as I swiped the last pages the story ends for some characters, but is the beginning for others.Say You Will is a fun, romantic story that will leave you with a smile on you face. As I always say if you have not had the pleasure of reading one of Kate Perry's books, then I would recommend that you do, as I don't think you will be disappointed.I loved that most the characters are British, and it's set in London. Some of the places and locations Kate mentioned in the book I know, and a few are just a stone's throw away from my house. While reading this book I recalled the updates, and photos that Kate posted while was London when writing this book in particular. Including when Rosalind orders Earl Grey, scones and champagne. ☺~Some quotes~"You're the most beautiful, fascinating woman I've met, and all I've thought about since the other day is stripping you bare and kissing every inch of you."~ Nick"You're more important than a one night stand a one night stand"~ Nick"I just think if we wanted, we could make it work."~ Rosalind"When it gets difficult, promise me you'll remember this moment. This is true. This is what we are" ~ Nick."I'm not interested in playing" she lied..."I want forever. I want you forever." ~ RosalindShe thought about the way he fit. Not just sexually, although that was fairly fabulous. He simply understood her - was in sync with her"~ Rosalind"You know I want someone to fit with me. You know I want a family. You Know I want you, that I crave you, because even in your anger you can't deny that I showed you this every time I touch you. You know I love you." Nick
