What They Say:
Bella is living her best life in Wynbridge, with her beloved Spaniel, Tink. She’s found a way to keep the house she inherited from her grandparents while expanding her dream business – Away With the Fairies – and she’s ecstatic that Christmas is on the horizon!
In fact, everything is perfect until family friend, Catherine Connelly asks Bella if she’d be willing to rent part of the house to freelance author, Jude who is researching the history of the Connelly Clan and Wynthorpe Hall ahead of turning his findings into a book. The plan had been for Jude to stay at the hall, but he can’t cope with the chaos and Bella reluctantly agrees to open her door to him.
Initially, the pair clash but then friendlier feelings begin to grow and Bella finds herself wondering if Jude could become more than just another guest before it’s time for him to leave. That is, until he announces he has no time for Christmas!
With her favourite time of the year suddenly in jeopardy, will Bella ever feel like she’s home for Christmas?
What I Say:
It has festive fun, grumpy/sunshine, enemies to lovers, and more!
Bella adores all things Christmas. Jude is a proper Grinch. When they're thrown together, who will have the stronger will?
I really loved how this story played out. I absolutely couldn't wait to be back in Wynbridge with the Connelly clan. It's where I would choose to spend the festive season myself, if I could. It was wonderful being back in the Square at the jolliest time of year.
Before reading this book, I found myself feeling like Jude. I was dreading Christmas for many reasons, but mostly because I lost my wonderful husband on December 16th last year. But being surrounded by Bella's joy is infectious and I'm now raring to deck the halls! 10/10
A massive thank you to Heidi for writing the book I didn't know I needed. And thanks to the publishers for sending an arc, and a beautiful finished copy.
