Many thanks to Sarah and BOTBS Publicity for my spot on this Blog Tour.
A cute book of less than 50 pages well heralding the festivity of Christmas and portraying the love in the hearts delightfully.
This was the sequel. So I had not read book 1, so understanding the characters was a bit difficult for me. First Christmas for Poppy with Leo at his Chateau. Different emotions came through in the prose via the emails to best friend and mom. A treasure hunt made love more precious.
My first book by Lorraine Wilson, the writing brought out the cuteness of this story. I liked that this love was not just hearts and balloons but there was a practicality behind it. That made it real. The author showed that sometimes real life intruded on the wishes of the heart.
Poppy with her dogs was extremely sweet, her feelings made this book fun. I couldn’t get to know Leo and the other characters much. Overall, it was a sweet fast read.
I received a free ARC from NetGalley and publisher, and this is my journey into its pages, straight from the heart!! STRICTLY HONEST AND UNBIASED.
All my reviews can be read here
Lorraine Wilson writes flirty, feel-good fiction for Harper Impulse – a Harper Collins imprint – and is unashamedly fond of happy endings. She loves hearing from readers and feels incredibly grateful to be doing the job she always dreamt of.
She splits her time between the South of France and Cambridgeshire and is usually either writing or reading while being sat on, walked over or barked at by one of her growing band of rescue dogs.
A Christmas she’ll remember forever…
Poppy is looking forward to spending her first Christmas in France at her boyfriend, Leo’s, Château. And as the snow falls softly around the dramatic castle, Poppy can’t think of anything more magical.
There are new traditions to discover, a cosy Christmas market to explore and best of all, a promise of secret treasure hunt from gorgeous Leo. Only family pressure and uncertainty about her future in France can threaten to cast a shadow over the holiday.
When the treasure hunt takes an unexpected turn Poppy knows for sure this is one Christmas she’ll remember forever.

Sounds light and fluffy and bloodless – so not at all your genre – hehehe
So not mine… It was all about love and sweet and sappy… I wanted to roll my eyes all the time
You make me laugh Shalini, eye rolling and all. It was a sweet story and it has prompted me to seek out the first to read. Nice review.
Thank you so much ❤️ I think I nerd to get to the beginning too
