The Little Bakery of Hopes and Dreams by Kellie Hailes

3.0

A lovely festive read full of hopes and dreams.

When Josie arrives in Sunnycombe she has no plans of sticking around for long. After her mother left the family home on Christmas Eve, from the age of 12 Josie hasn’t been very fond of the festive season.

Keen to avoid further disappointment, Josie is reluctant to make friendships or start relationships until she begins working for the recently widowed and single dad Callan.

As both Josie and Callan spend more time with each other, they realise that they might just be ready to fall in love again. Although nothing worth having was ever easy and straightforward. With his five year old daughter Mia to also consider, is it worth starting a relationship with someone who is likely to run at the first sign of trouble.

I really enjoyed this book and would like to thank NetGalley for a copy in exchange for a review.

The characters are were all well written and I enjoyed the relationship of Margo and Brendon which is explored alongside the main characters. A fun, romantic story of letting go of negative experiences and discovering love and friendship.
