Readers experience love, laughter, and adventure against the stunning backdrop of the mountains. I found Escape to the Swiss Chalet by Carrie Walker to be a delightful romantic comedy that transported me from the familiar comfort of home to the breathtaking beauty the mountains provide. I used to live in a mountain valley, and just loved going back.

Meet Holly Roberts. She’s known among family and friends for her aversion to cold weather. So it surprises everyone when she agrees to pack her bags and move to the Swiss Alps. After experiencing heartbreak, Holly spends the winter season working as a sous-chef for wealthy twins. And one is pretty darn handsome. As Holly seeks to escape her problems, could she find her Happily Ever After in the Swiss Alps?

This cannot be a debut novel, but turns out it is! This read is a total sweet and funny romance, perfect for those of us who enjoy a picturesque setting and charming characters. This story was an enchanting escape and I totally reached for my cozy blanket while imagining the snow-capped peaks.

Thank you to NetGalley and Aria & Aries for a temporary e-ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This was a cosy, enjoyable read. The plot was quite straightforward and predictable, but it was written in an engaging and humorous way, and was still fun to follow.

I really enjoyed reading it. It has been such a cozy read for me. The storyline is also quite heart-warming and I had a great time Reading it on Netgalley.

I really love the cover photo of this book and that is what caught my eyes before anything else and I knew that I had to read it.

I am so excited to buy my copy of this book. It has been such an immersive read for me.

Thank you netgalley for the extract. Even though it was a short preview of the story I really liked the author's writing style. The start of the book didn't reveal much about the story but it looks very promising. Holly seems like a complete sweetheart and I kind of like George too. But he's too nice to be the endgame lol
