This is just the most gorgeous story! I’d have enjoyed it at any time of the year, but it is a special, warm, and cosy read at Christmas time.

I know I’ve said it before, but I will say it again, I love Rachael Stewart’s books. They are just perfect for losing yourself in for a few delightful hours.

As this is book two of the How to Win a Munroe series it features characters I loved from book one, but centres around Aiden Monroe. Aiden took over the family business when his father passed away. He never really had the time to grieve properly and won’t even entertain the idea of a serious relationship. His poorly mother would love to see him settled and happy though. He would do anything to make his mother happy, so he enlists the help of his best friend, Elena. Elena is only too happy to help.

I did want to shake Aiden on occasion. I was totally with the Mums!!

Such a beautiful story with gorgeous (some in more ways than one) characters, set in a beautiful place at the most wonderful time of the year. What is not to love!?

Rachael is one of my favourite authors and one I'm lucky enough to consider a friend. There hasn't been a single book I've not devoured and loved. 

She has an insane ability to pull you in from page 1 and keep you hooked right til the end. I've loved Elena and Aiden's story, everything about it was just beautiful. 

If you've not picked up a Rachael Stewart book before, you are missing out.
 Another amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read.
