I was sent a copy of this book by Netgalley in return for an honest review.
I loved the look of the book, there was something magical about the cover, I chose a lot of books based on their covers and this one looked so lovely and Christmassy that I had to read it.
It took some time to get into but I really enjoyed it once I did. The story is about Rosie and her family, her sister Kate and their parents. Rosie is living in the US and Katie is a A&E doctor here in England. One night Katie receives a phone call from her sister telling her she is marrying her boyfriend of a few months this coming Christmas in the US. Katie who feels that it is all too quick decides she's going to stop the wedding.
Rosie parents and Katie travel to the US for the wedding, but things aren't all they seem, secrets are being kept by all members of the family and the story, however predictable is heart warming. Love blossoms between unexpected people, (though i guessed early on that it would!).
The story is well written, the description of the scenes, the snow, the trees and lodges just makes you all warm and fuzzy inside. The characters are all really likeable and from the outset I wanted it to end happily. It really is a lovely Christmas read, easy going, with a few revelations hidden within. If you want a book to curl up with in front of the fire this Christmas, let it be this one.
I gave it 4 stars out of 5 on Goodreads.
