Snowed In for Christmas by Sarah Morgan
5.0
I read Snowed in for Christmas over the summer and despite the hot weather I was propelled into December. A remote Scottish highland village, lots of snow and plenty of Christmas traditions make this a cozy holiday read.
Lucy Clarke is a young woman who has experienced a lot of loss in her life. Her parents were tragically killed and she was raised by her beloved Grandmother who passed at Christmas two years before. She is a shining star in her professional work, but the company she has worked for has had some bad luck recently and may have to downsize soon. But not if Lucy has anything to say about it. She is determined to get some new company accounts.
The three Miller adult children live in London and are tired of the never-ending questions from their parents about their personal lives. Things are going on in their lives that they can’t even discuss with their siblings. They devise a fictitious plan to satisfy their parents – Ross will tell them that he is dating a girl named Lucy. Little did they know that Lucy Clarke would appear at the Highland home of their parents looking for Ross for business reasons.
The Miller family is welcoming of Lucy who soon becomes unable to leave the home. Planning on spending the holiday alone in London, suddenly she becomes part of a family celebration full of tradition. When Lucy and Ross have a chance to talk, they find out they have more in common than their passion for their work. The characters are all highly likeable and the home is fully decorated – everything that Lucy wants in her life. Ross’s grandmother Nanna Jean is a sweet woman full of spunk and along with Hunter the dog, steals the show.
Snowed in for Christmas is my first holiday book of 2022 but I already know this will be one of my favourites. I’ll be buying this book as a gift to each of the readers in my life to enjoy in December.
I received an early copy of the eARC for review purposes. All opinions are my own.
