Many thanks to Rachel and Rachel’s Random Resources for my spot on this Blog Tour.

Love at first sight – do you believe it? Do I believe it? I never did post my teens. But this book sure made me believe in the cosmic connection between the two main characters.

A week before Christmas, Zander’s girlfriend was off with friends leaving him alone with his mate, his dog Alf. Livvie had broken with her two timing louse of a boyfriend. I say – good riddence. And both found themselves in the same cottage. Would you call it serendipity? I sure would. Romance happened and love struck. But past too sneaked,

My first book by Eliza J. Scott, the writing was flawless. The emotions and romance dazzled through the prose delighting me with the emotions. Each of the main characters had a past, and it was wonderful to see them growing beyond it. Humor was interspersed beautifully with love when Alf took centerstage.

The story depicted the hope of Christmas in the cold snow of the village. It showed me the warm hearts of the people who truly made this a festive read.

An enjoyable storyline bringing out romance and filling me with a Christmas spirit, how could I remain the Grinch. Hope grew abound when I read this book written by Eliza J. Scott.

I received a free ARC from Rachel and the autho, and this is my journey into its pages, straight from the heart!! STRICTLY HONEST AND UNBIASED.

The week before Christmas, GP Zander Gillespie finds his festive plans in tatters. He’s supposed to be flying out to his parents’ chateau in Carcassonne with his high-maintenance girlfriend, Melissa. But she has other ideas. She wants to spend Christmas in London with her party friends – and he’s not invited.

The prospect of facing his family, with their questions and their sympathy – not to mention the ‘I told you so-s’ – just isn’t an option. Instead, Zander decides to head to his holiday cottage in the quaint moorland village of Lytell Stangdale, where he intends to hide away with his faithful rescue Labrador Alf.

Eighty miles away, Livvie’s world has come crashing down. With plans to cook a romantic meal for her boyfriend, she heads home early and walks in on him in a compromising position with their neighbour. Fed-up of his lies and philandering ways, this is the final straw.

With her Christmas plans up in smoke, the thought of spending it with her parents and her smug, married sister with her pompous husband in tow, is enough to bring Livvie out in hives. So, when she fires up her laptop and finds the perfect little holiday cottage in Lytell Stangdale available to rent over the festive period, it seems the perfect solution. Or is it…?

Zander didn’t believe in love at first sight until he set eyes on Livvie. Livvie had sworn off men until she met Zander. The pair may be reluctant to give in to temptation, but fate seems to have other ideas…

Join Livvie and Zander – and all the usual characters – for a magical Christmas in Lytell Stangdale. The perfect cosy read to snuggle up with this Christmas.
