Snowed In For Christmas written by Sarah Morgan and published by HQ Books.

 


 

 


Christmas is fast approaching for the Miller family which means lots of pressure for the younger members, Ross, Alice and Clemmie who live away from home and are forging independent lives for themselves. Like most families, Christmas brings with it the stress of returning home for a season of questions (albeit well meant!) but Ross, Alice and Clemmie have certain things they don’t want to share yet and so call a “siblings summit” ahead of returning home to discuss what they will and won’t share with the family!

 

Lucy Clarke is not having the best festive season…she is looking at a solo Christmas following the death of her grandmother and the future of her job, is the glue which is holding her life together, is looking uncertain. It all hinges on getting new clients to join the Marketing firm she works for in particular Ross Miller. Whilst working in Scotland for another client, Lucy decides to hand deliver a business proposal to his family home and at this point, everyone’s lives are upended.

This is a gorgeous story that will warm the cockles of your heart without having to put the central heating on! Sarah Morgan and her Christmas books are something of a tradition now along with mince pies and sherry!

One of my favourite things of all in this book was the wonderful description of the lodge and the scenery – I could see the snow covered hills and mountains and the bridge into the village – I want to go and visit there it sounded idyllic.

I was quite sad when it ended as I wanted the Miller family to live on in my life, I wasn’t ready for it to end and would love to spend a spring, summer and autumn with them too – in fact, can I move into the Loch Room and become their adopted daughter?!

When Life Interrupts Reading (And Why Books Always Wait For Us)

I've been very quiet on here over the last 18 months. Reading, something that usually anchors me, slipped quietly into the background, not because I didn't love it anymore, but because life asked me to put my energy elsewhere. The main reason is my mum. She's 89 and I adore her. Following a dementia diagnosis, she moved into residential care, a road I never imagined navigating, and one that came with a steep learning curve. In the early days there was a small silver lining, her care home was close enough that I could pop and visit her every day during my lunch hour and those visits mattered more than I can put into words. Over the last year though, her dementia has progressed very rapidly. There was pneumonia, and then on Christmas day sepsis. And as if that wasn't enough, a relative made the decision to move Mum to another care home further away from me, but nearer to her, meaning that I can no longer see her every day. Losing that routine felt like another quiet grief...

Maybe Next Christmas by Emma Heatherington

  Maybe Next Christmas" by Emma Heatherington was a delightful festive read that truly delivered in the end. While I found the beginning a little slow, once the story picked up, I was completely hooked and couldn’t put it down! Emma's storytelling and knack for building relatable, heartfelt characters shines through, making the journey worth it. The Christmas charm, along with themes of love and second chances, make this one feel as cozy as her other novels. Definitely recommended for fans of Christmas romances or anyone looking for a feel-good, warm festive read!
