About the book
Holly has the place to herself this Christmas. It’s not her place, though – she is house-sitting for friends who live on Nightingale Square – just there to keep the place warm and cosy and only for long enough for her to sort her life out. Newly single and finding herself unsure about next steps for her career, she plans to hunker down and make some life decisions.
To clear her mind, she sets off on early morning walks around a nearby lake and bumps into May, an older lady who is also new to the area, and her dapper Dachshund Monty. Quickly, a firm friendship blossoms. Then when Holly meets Bear, a rather large and rather attractive man, at the local pub, and his rescue dog Queenie, her stay at Nightingale Square suddenly feels even more appealing.
As the community comes together for the season’s festivities, Holly must start thinking about where her life will take her next. Some big decisions need to be made, but distractions close to home make thinking about the future more tricky than ever…
Will she get that festive feeling this Christmas…?
My Review
One word… Fantastic!
Honestly this book is one of the best books I have read! It has everything you want in a good book. I am a huge fan of this authors books and it just feels really cosy and warming the way the author includes previous characters from her previous books. Also this book is set in the location that we have fell in love with, the beautiful Nightingale Square.
The characters in this I absolutely adored! Not many books I could say I have lived every character, but this book I really did! I just wish I lived there and was part of the community and had friendships with them.
I absolutely loved the festive feel in this book, it made me feel so excited for Christmas and I do believe this will be one of the best Christmas books out this year! Perfect winter reading to curl up and be cosy reading.
It would be a dream come true to have a follow up book for this, I would love to find out whats next for these characters and I for sure know that I will definitely find out in the author’s next releases.
