A fresh, funny and poignant romance set in the beautiful Adelaide Hills.

Olivia Murphy is a woman on a mission. The Ducati motorbike that once belonged to her brother has come up for re–sale. Liv wants to buy the precious bike, and she needs the ink dry on the paperwork before the approaching long weekend, when tourists with fat wallets will descend on her hometown of Hahndorf.

Only one person stands in her way; and she's just tripped and fallen at his feet...

Owen Carson likes rare and beautiful things and he has the Ducati in his sights. Then Liv literally falls into his path, and he finds his heart captured by beauty of a very different kind.

How far will Liv go to make the motorbike hers? Can a viticulturalist fall for a man who prefers beer? And will a long weekend among the grape vines be long enough for Owen to convince Liv he's interested in more than just a holiday fling?

Loved this book

29 July 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This was the first Lily Malone book I read and I was an instant fan.
I love her style, the characters are so real and I want to go visiting The Adelaide Hills.
I first read this book back in 2014 and have just re-read with the new cover. Still the same awesome story inside, just loved it!

A great long weekend read about a long weekend. Well written with an authentic Australian feel, handling sensitive issues in sympathetic way which gives the characters in this romance a depth not always found. I really enjoyed it!

Keeps the reader interested, want to read on sometimes don't want to put book down. The writer keeps the reader involved.

I loved this!

The Goodbye Ride is one of my favourite reads. Some novellas can leave me feeling a little short changed in relation to the depth of the characters and execution of the plot. It's harder for an author to capture the essence of a story and its characters within the word limit of a novella, but Lily Malone has nailed this well and truly.

Lily creates real people in her books, not just characters. This is my second Lily Malone book (Fairway to Heaven being my first), and I have to say that with both of them I felt as though I had spent time with old friends instead of fictional people. She is able to bring the reader right into the emotion and depth of the story. Her style is honest, authentic but without being contrived. She writes of real people in real situations, but without making it glossy or overly dramatic.

Lovable characters, beautiful location descriptions with real atmosphere, and a heart warming story that had me turning the page, The Goodbye Ride was a pleasure to read. One I will certainly return to again.

A short goodbye ride.

I enjoyed the story line but felt it could have been developed more. A little too short. The characters were likeable. I would have liked a bit more of a chase between the two main characters.

it is assumed they lived happily ever after. I go out on a motorbike from time to time so could relate to that.

Best Enjoyed with some Velvety South Australian Red

4 August 2015

Format: Kindle Edition

It's the Queen's Birthday long weekend in Hahndorf, Adelaide Hills, South Australia and Olivia Murphy's finally managed to scrape together a deposit for something close to her heart - the Duke which once belonged to her brother. Cash in hand, she makes her way to the seller's house to exercise her first right of refusal but, as luck would have it, someone else, in the form of Owen Carson, arrives and "steals" the show (or motorbike in this case)!

First impressions of Owen abound in Liv's mind, but after the deal is done and, sensing her disappointment, he seeks her out and makes a proposition.

What follows is a comedy of errors from mistaken first impressions to an embarrassing fall, some sexy guitar playing to an ignition of passion and then extreme panic when she discovers that perhaps Owen has taken what he wants with no regard to her feelings.

The Goodbye Ride provided me with some much needed escapism from the "heavy" psychological literature to which I usually subject myself and, without having read her first novel, His Brand of Beautiful released by Escape Publishing in March 2013 (and which has already landed on my burgeoning TBR shelf), I can honestly say that I have found another Aussie author who has earned a place on my bookshelf.

Olivia and Owen are very well-developed and this enabled me to connect emotionally with them as they drew me into their lives and I felt that some of the scenes just sizzled right off the page - particularly the motorbike scene which evoked in me memories of another bike scene from one of my favourite movies, Top Gun - hubba hubba!

Fast-paced, light and extremely entertaining with some very saucy romance, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this for a dreary winter's day with a blanket tucked over your feet (yes, you know who you are) and a glass or two of velvety South Australian red.

Sweet to raunchy in under three seconds

17 June 2016

Format: Kindle Edition

It must have been fate that I picked this up to read over The Queen's Birthday long weekend because it was set over The Queen's Birthday long weekend. I enjoyed being taken back to the quaint German themed town of Handorf in the Adelaide Hills, where I went on a family holiday last year (in September - June was too cold for us).

Just like a Ducati, this romance novella went from sweet to raunchy in under three seconds. It handled the ups and downs of the Adelaide Hills perfectly and pulled up to a perfect ending. It was a fun day trip and I look forward to going for a longer ride with Lily Malone soon. I think that's enough motorbike similes for one review.

I received this book free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
