Book Birthday Blitz - Christmas at the Little Knitting Box

Very excited to be part of the Birthday Book Blitz for this fabulous Christmas book 'Christmas at the Little Knitting Box' by Helen J Rolfe.  Today there is a very exciting giveaway too! Also I have some information on Helen's new release! Part 2 of this series!

About the book
Christmas is coming and New York is in full swing for the snowy season. But at The Little Knitting Box in the West Village, things are about to change …

The Little Knitting Box has been in Cleo’s family for nearly four decades, and since she arrived fresh off the plane from the Cotswolds four years ago, Cleo has been doing a stellar job of running the store. But instead of an early Christmas card in the mail this year, she gets a letter that tips her world on its axis.

Dylan has had a tumultuous few years. His marriage broke down, his mother passed away and he’s been trying to pick up the pieces as a stay-at-home dad. All he wants this Christmas is to give his kids the home and stability they need. But when he meets Cleo at a party one night, he begins to see it’s not always so easy to move on and pick up the pieces, especially when his ex seems determined to win him back.

When the snow starts to fall in New York City, both Cleo and Dylan realise life is rarely so black and white and both of them have choices to make. Will Dylan follow his heart or his head? And will Cleo ever allow herself to be a part of another family when her own fell apart at the seams?
Full of snow, love and the true meaning of Christmas, this novel will have you hooked until the final page.

My Review
After seeing the beautiful  cover of this I knew this was a book I needed to read this Christmas.

Clio is the main character and she runs the Little Knitting Box, its been in her family for nearly 40years so she is so passionate and has a real love for the store.

With christmas approaching Clio is taken back to receive a letter in the post which turns her world upside down and puts her under a load of stress.

On the brighter side Clio goes to a party and meets Dylan, they instantly click and fall for each other so quickly.  With both of them carrying a ton of baggage between them it takes them a while to get together.

This was really different to the normal books I read, I have never read about a knitting shop, so this really opened my eyes to the knitting world and really inspired me.  It was really fresh and exciting!

Christmas at the Little Knitting Box is the perfect festive romance. I loved every page of it and it kept me completely gripped to the end.  I Loved this!

Snowflakes and Mistletoe at the Inglenook Inn (New York Ever After, Book 2)
It's the most wonderful time of the year...but is it the time to fall in love?   As the flames on the log fire flicker and the snowflakes swirl above the New York streets, maybe this Christmas could be the one that changes everything...  When Darcy returns to Manhattan, she’s put in charge of the Inglenook Inn, a cosy boutique hotel in the heart of Greenwich Village. The Inn needs a boost in bookings if it’s to survive the competition, so Darcy is convinced that hosting Christmas this year is the answer. What she doesn’t expect is to meet a face from the past, which can only spell trouble.

Myles left England behind and took a job in New York. It’s a step forwards in his career, and has the added bonus of being nowhere near his family. He’s also hoping to avoid Christmas, the worst time of the year. But when his company puts him up at the Inglenook Inn and he recognises Darcy, it isn’t long before they clash.   When disaster strikes, can Myles and Darcy put their differences aside to make Christmas at the Inglenook Inn a success?
