It was the opportunity of a lifetime - a rundown hotel in Cornwall, just waiting to be brought back to life... Secrets, rivalry, sunshine - from the author of THE BEACH HUT and A NIGHT ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS.
When the rundown Rocks Hotel comes up for auction in Mariscombe, Lisa and her boyfriend George make a successful bid to escape and live the dream. But their dream quickly becomes a nightmare. Their arch-rival, Bruno Thorne, owner of the Mariscombe Hotel, seems intent on sabotage.
Meanwhile, local chambermaid Molly is harbouring a secret that will blow the whole village apart. Then an unexpected visitor turns up on the doorstep. It seems everyone in Mariscombe is sailing a little too close to the rocks ...
Fall in love this Christmas with Sunday Times bestselling author Veronica Henry's delightfully heartwarming festive read...
'Utterly heartwarming' JENNY COLGANIt's going to take a Christmas miracle...
Emilia promised her father that she would keep the doors of his beloved bookshop, Nightingale Books, open after he passed away - but she's down to her last few pennies.
It would break Emilia's heart to shut up shop, especially when the villagers have become like family to her (and have more stories to tell than the books on the shelves!). Lady of the manor, Sarah, is definitely keeping a secret, single dad Jackson is always on the hunt for a new story for his son, and she's sure that shy chef Thomasina has a crush on a man she met in the cookery section...
Yet with only a few weeks until Christmas, Emilia knows that she has her work cut out if she's to save her family legacy - will she find a way to restore it to its former glory, before it's too late?
