Just like JimmyJump the mention of real motorbikes ensured that i had no option but to award ten points. A good story with wonderfully detailed characters, Tracy comes across as a proper Essex girl.
Thank you yet again for an excellent read. (10/10)

Cute, rather standard romantic tale, which is once again saved from doom in the bottom drawer through the great way Lisa Jones has in chiseling her characters and weaving her story.
The heroics at the end had me kinda cringing because it felt like the screenplay had been altered by a Hollywood type suit in order to get some bums in seats at the local Odeon cinema.
Didn't need the glossary because when climbing up the lighthouse in Ostend, on a clear day you can not only see forever but also the White Cliffs of Dover and since there's ferries going in that direction I on occasion slipped across the channel to end up in Victoria Station or Paddington or -god forbid- Madame Tussaud's who meanwhile has lost her apostrophe...
Anyway, I digress. Loved the story. Was gonna go for a niner but adding a point because of the Norton Commando. Had me going from Summerhouse Blues down Melancholy Lane lined with Triumph Bonnevilles and Black Shadows and Indians and Moto Guzzi LeMans and a whole bunch of seventies bikes...
Since you got me in the mood, I'm off sorting out some Summertime Blues from the likes of Daltrey, Townshend, Entwistle and nutcase Moon.
Hey, call me a seeker...
JJ (10/10)

Very good as a story, fairly good as sex. Thank you for the glossary. Although I knew most of them, there were a half dozen I'd either not run across or was wrong about. We have a Wickes Lumber here in New York State; I wonder if it's affiliated with the British concern? (8/10)
