When Jess Thornton’s
dad was lost at sea, the family coped in different ways, alone in their grief.
Now, her mum seems to be going off the rails and her sister, Isla, who moved to
France, is now back and determined to get their old family home on the market.
But the last thing Jess wants this Christmas is for renovations to start on the
house. It’s sure to stir up all sorts of memories she’s desperate to avoid. And
to make things worse, Isla appears to have hired the most obnoxious builder in
the world to do the work. Jess could ignore the fact that women seem to be
putty in his hands. But what she finds harder to ignore is the frisson she gets
every time she squeezes past him in the mess that is now their beloved old
home! Can the family finally start talking and find a way to move on from the
past this Christmas?
Review
I’ve not previously read any of Rosie Green’s novella’s and
after reading Snowflakes over Moondance Cottage I’m thinking that is something
which needs rectifying immediately because I absolutely loved this book and its
exactly what I want to read at this time of year…or anytime actually.
Jess Rigby has not been a fan of Christmas since she lost
her dad a few years ago and this year its made extra hard when sister Isla returns
from France and drops the bombshell that she wants to sell their family home
Moondance Cottage. As builder Seb starts
renovations on the house a whole host of feelings are stirred up in Jess as she
struggles to cope with her emotions. The lives of Jess, Isla and their Mother
all seem to be on a collision course as they deal with their grief, but can a
little Christmas magic pull this family back together.
Jess, Isla and the rest of the cast of characters are easy
to like to as they all seem to be dealing with their own everyday struggles
which makes them so relatable.
This is a novel which has it all romance, heartbreak,
moments of humour and an ending which will take your breath away. It’s a
wonderful festive read with plenty of drama to keep you entertained and one
which I highly recommend as I loved every single page.
Thank you so much to the author and publishers for sending
me copy to review and to Rachel’s random Resources for inviting me to be part
of this blog tour.
About the Author
Rosie has been scribbling
stories ever since she was little.
Back then, they were rip-roaring adventure tales with a young heroine in perilous danger of falling off a cliff or being tied up by 'the baddies'.
Thankfully, Rosie has moved on somewhat, and now much prefers to write romantic comedies that melt your heart and make you smile, with really not much perilous danger involved at all - unless you count the heroine losing her heart in love.
Rosie's brand new series of novellas is centred around life in a village cafe. The latest, 'Bonfires & Hot Chocolate at the Little Duck Pond Cafe', is out now.
Watch out for 'A Winter Wedding at the Little Duck Pond Cafe', which will be published Christmas 2019.
Rosie is also writing a full-length, standalone book for Christmas 2019, entitled 'Snowflakes over Moondance Cottage'.
