The blurb:
Christmas is the season the
Gingerbread Café was made for…but owner Lily couldn’t be feeling less merry if
she tried. She’s spent another year dreaming of being whisked away on a sleigh-ride
for two, but she’s facing festive season alone – again. And, just to give her
another reason to feel anything other than candy-cane perky, a new shop across
the road has opened… Not only is it selling baked goods, but the owner, with
his seriously charming smile, has every girl in town swooning.
But Lily isn’t about to let her
business crumble — the Gingerbread Café is the heart of the community, and
she’s going to fight for it! This could be the Christmas that maybe, just
maybe, all her dreams – even the someone-to-decorate-the-Christmas-tree-with
ones – really do come true!
My Opinion:
What a lovely,
cute and wonderful novella, with a drop dead gorgeous cover.
Lily is a great
and relatable character with a big heart. She is still pining over her past and
what she had there.
Oh and Damon!
Well, BOOK BOYFRIEND ALARM!!! He’s hot, sweet, caring, kind…
There off on a rocky
start, as Damon and his café are becoming a competition for the Gingerbread
Café. Their attraction for each other is obvious from the start and loved how
Lily wanted to stay away from him. They get closer anyway and Lily discovers
that something is bothering him, but what?
When Lily finds
out, she has a great way to deal with it.
It’s great how
their relationship develops and they get closer and closer and everything
around this lovely small town atmosphere around Christmas. Perfect!!!
CeeCee is such
an adorable friend/mum to Lily and I loved them together.
Such a sweet,
flirty and fun story, with lots of emotion and heart.
It’s the
perfect festive read, it transfers warmth, love and friendship.
The whole series is wonderful, you're in for a treat with each one of them!
