When Livvie Weatherill's relationship implodes just days before Christmas, she books herself the perfect little holiday cottage in the village of Lytell Stangdale. But a booking mix-up means she's sharing her dream hideaway with Zander, a doctor with striking blue eyes, and his adorable rescue Labrador Alf – who has an unfortunate habit of jumping into baths with unsuspecting guests. Between building snowmen, sledging down snowy hillsides and sipping hot chocolate with marshmallows by a crackling log fire, Livvie soon discovers the magic of Dale View Cottage. When Zander introduces her to the delightfully eccentric locals, she finds herself starting to fall for both the charming village and the man who saved Alf from a heartbreaking past. But when danger arrives at their cosy cottage door, Livvie must choose between running away again or fighting for the happiness she's found in this winter wonderland, with barn owls gliding over snowy fields and a community that welcomes her with open arms. Can a holiday booking disaster lead to lasting love? Or will past heartbreak freeze her chances of a happy ending? Curl up with this utterly charming Christmas romance perfect for fans of Heidi Swain, Jenny Colgan and Trisha Ashley.
