It Won’t be Christmas Without You by Beth Reekles




I am a sucker for a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ festive romance and gorge myself on as many as I can find, (hence reading a Christmas book release in August) and #ItWontBeChristmasWithoutYou enveloped me in the festive spirit from the start.

From the realities of having a sister, particularly a twin (I have imagined and had many similar feelings as our two main characters Cara and Eloise) to the enchantment of blossoming romance at the most wonderful time of the year, I enjoyed the escape from my own life and championed each sister at different points in the novel.

The way the author writes I could visualise every scene, even down to making risotto in a house shared with five virtual strangers, where the heating didn’t work properly and those extra five minutes for the food to be cooked.

Reading this story gave me the same warm and fuzzies as watching Bridget Jones’s Diary, this is high praise from me. The only thing that left me hanging was if Cara actually got the promotion.

I highly recommend It Won’t be Christmas Without You, even if you aren’t into the festive romance genre, it’s a well written and heartwarming read. My thanks to #Netgalley and Publishers #HarperCollins #OneMoreChapter for allowing to read and review this wonderful story.

Time Stamps by K L Kreig

Image
    Dear K L Kreig   It is a hazy summer morning here on the North-East coast of England, I am due to meet friends for brunch in two hours but I am finding hard to get ready. You see, I finished Time Stamps five minutes ago, and I feel like my world has stalled.   Death doesn’t come easy, whether it is out of the blue, over in seconds or a long, drawn out, weary process that takes years. The pain is insurmountable, the grief unbearable and the mourning eternal. I admit I am an emotional reader, I feel what the characters feel, the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I started reading Time Stamps three weeks ago, and from the first chapter I knew I was lost, tears streaming, but not quite ugly crying.    I have read everything you have published and knew that s*#t was going to get real. Laurel and Roth they sucked me in, not the facts of their circumstances, death happens, none of us can escape it, but it was the way in which they lived that got me. The...

This Christmas by Emma Heatherington

Image
  What a cosy feel, good read.   I love Emma Heatherington’s latest book, it combines some of my favourite things, cosy feels, a dog, a suitable love interest, the image of rural Ireland, and of course Christmas.    It is difficult to write something refreshing in the increasingly crowded market of festive fiction, but This Christmas is one of the standout stories of 2023, I highly recommend snuggling up with a mug of hot chocolate and something nice to nibble on whilst you are enveloped in this 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 star read.

Probably the Best Kiss in the World by Pernille Hughes

Image
I spent a weekend snuggled up in my living room with this  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ story, I enjoyed the characters almost as much as I wanted to knock some sense into them. Every single one of them was perfectly flawed, in as much I was rooting for them to succeed at the same time as shaking my head at their logic or lack thereof. It was most definitely the characters in this story that kept me reading, Jen being almost neurotic to Yakob. The flow of the story was paced well and matched the tried and tested beats. #ProbablyTheBestKissInTheWorld is definitely worth taking the day off from doing the chores and curling up on the sofa for My thanks to #Netgalley and #HarperImpulse for giving me the opportunity to read and review an advanced copy of #ProbablyTheBestKissInTheWorld Purchase Links: Amazon UK:  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Probably-Best-World-Pernille-Hughes-ebook/dp/B07GC9PJW4/ref=sr_1_1?crid=GBG667HM4DF0&keywords=probably+the+best+kiss+in+the+world&qid=1557875699...
