When event planner Fallon Honeywood collapses from overwork after a particularly punishing Christmas party, she reluctantly agrees to spend the holidays with her soap opera-star mother at Blakeney Hall, a grand English manor on the frosty Yorkshire moors. But what starts as an awkward family reunion soon becomes an unexpected adventure...
Fallon finds herself drawn into the charming world of the aristocratic owners of the estate - handsome widower Alexander Knight and his sensitive son Theo. As her eyes and Alexander's meet across plans to launch his new artisanal gin business at the local Christmas Fayre, Fallon wonders if her chaotic city life might have been masking a deep loneliness she's hidden all along...
With the help of eccentric aunt Constance Knight, a rescue donkey named Heathcliff and her adorably scruffy little dog Runcible, Fallon slowly begins to heal. But as Christmas draws near - pine needles and spicy cloves scenting the air and mistletoe festooning the doorways - Fallon faces a terrifying decision. Could this be the year she finally opens her heart? And will she choose to return to her old life in London, or find an unexpected home among the snowflake-dusted Yorkshire moors, where Christmas wishes just might come true?
A deliciously festive tale of family, romance and Christmas magic, perfect for fans of Heidi Swain and Trisha Ashley. Curl up with a mug of cocoa and lose yourself in this holiday delight!
