Description

An irresistible festive treat from multimillion copy bestseller Amanda Prowse.

***

While her free-spirited daughter travels the world, Vivienne prepares for a lonely Christmas in Bristol, with her best friend Ellen and her ancient dog Bob.

Then a letter arrives that changes everything. Vivienne's daughter is getting married in New Zealand, and she wants her mum and Ellen by her side.

Out on the rugged coast of Tutukaka, the sea sparkles, romance beckons – and Vivienne falls under the spell of another life. Will she leave everything she holds dear for a chance at happiness? Or will her daughter be the only one to fall in love this Christmas?

Reviews for Amanda Prowse:

'If you love JoJo Moyes and Freya North, you'll love this. There's no shortage of books with Christmas in the title, but this family-focused story stands out from the rest' Closer

'Magical' Now Magazine

'A lively romance with emotional depth' My Weekly

'A heartwarming novel to read in the run-up to Christmas – hot, balmy beaches herald the festive season on one side of the world, and light dustings of snow on the other side' Tripfiction

'A sweet, humorous snapshot of a romance... Will elicit a sigh and a smile' New York Journal of Books
