This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews After reading the first two books in this series when I heard there would be a short Christmas filled visit to Tippermere I knew I needed a copy.

This book is set a few months after the end of the second book. Lottie and Rory are happily living in the little love nest on Tipping House Estate.

Some how Lottie inadvertently invites 8 other people to their cozy Christmas Dinner for two. Rory doesn't seem to mind to much, he loves a good party.

There's only one thing that Lottie wants this Christmas but will Rory deliver it?

This is a lovely little story filled with festive cheer. It made me long for my christmas day with the family.

I hope we get to see more of Lottie, Rory and the gang in the future.

This was just a fun, cutesy read. I enjoy Zara Stoneley, I’m not sure I would read more in this series, though. A little too heavy of a focus on the getting married/I need a ring for me.

I managed to finish the first 2 chapters but I just couldn't get along with the story. It was too slow for me and I just ended up bored and wanting to read a different book.

To be honest, I only read this because it looked short and easy, and I needed something to come out of a slump. However, this has been one of the worst books I have read, ever, and I’ve read ‘The Sixth Extinction’ and had many worse encounters. This is abysmal. I really disliked it - if you couldn’t tell. But Merry Christmas Eve!

I don't think it helped that I hadn't read the other books in this series, but this didn't really do it for me. If however you know the characters and like the world, then it may work for you.

Charlotte Brinkley has a small intimate Christmas dinner planned with her finance this year, in hopes that he will present her with a long awaited engagement ring. The trouble is she can’t seem to help herself from inviting half the village to join them.

I really enjoyed this introduction to Tippermere. A crazier more lovable cast of characters, I have rarely read. It was terrific way to battle insomnia, yet I laughed so hard and so out loud that I woke my disgruntled family up just a bit. From the crazy way that more people kept getting added to the guest list, to imagining them all squeezing into the dinner table. The pudding disaster brought tears to my eyes, because I could just feel lady Elizabeth’s frustration at the day getting away from her well planned prying. The corners were neatly filled in with the kind of small township drama that keeps the world turning. This is a place and a group of people that I would seriously enjoy reading about for a long time to come.

It wouldn't be Christmas without a little chaos now would it?
