I went for brunch at the cutest little tea room and couldn’t resist the Buddy The Elf Hot Chocolate they had on the specials board - how amazing is this!

One more for Christmas was the first Christmas book I read this year. I adore Sarah Morgan’s Christmas books - they’re so full of festive good feels ♥️

I loved the Scottish setting and the Christmas Holidays Travel Agency and the Reindeer!

I don't normally like a christmas romance, but I very much enjoyed this. The setting was beautiful , the story was a lot deeper then just a romance book and had some difficult subject matters while still managing to have the soft edge of a chick flick. The characters were very cute, the setting made me want to be there and I enjoyed the focus on the family relationship rather then the romantic relationship.

Once December rolls around it means one thing, time to crack open a Sarah Morgan heartwarming and festive read.

One More for Christmas is set between America and Scotland, although predominantly in the winter landscape of the latter. The story is jam packed full of family drama, relationships, secrets, love, some heartache and hurt from time to time, but on the whole it is uplifting without being too unbelievable. The settings - as is the norm with Sarah Morgan books - are marvellous, full of descriptions of beautiful Highland landscapes and lashings of snow.

Overall this book is the ideal light pick me up to gorge on (along with a mince pie or two!), over the Christmas period.

I received an advance copy of this book from HQ through Netgalley, however this did not influence my unbiased honest review of the book.

Gayle Mitchell is a renowned US lifestyle writer and runs her own business, she has very high standards and demands the same from everyone in her life making her a hard taskmaster. Her daughters Samantha and Ella are very close to each other but 5 years ago both became estranged from Gayle.
When Gayle has a accident and is taken to hospital Samantha and Ella feel obliged to visit her. Gayle starts rethinking her life and somehow manages to invite herself to join them on a Christmas work trip/holiday in Scotland. Gayle is nervous but Samantha and Ella are dreading it.

We all can identify with family rifts, even if we haven’t experienced one that drives us apart for years. So it’s easy to identify with Gayle and her daughters, and get wrapped up in the rollercoaster of them putting their familial love back together.
It leaves you wondering how easy it actually is to forgive and forget, and can they really put it behind them? And, like the nerdy hero, just how much effort is it worth to save a family home.
Plenty of tears will be shed, and its a great holiday read

I wanted to to read this book as close to Christmas as I could so that I got into the spirit of Christmas.

Samantha and Ella are sisters who haven’t seen their mother for five years following an argument. A lot has happened in those five years that their mother Gayle is completely unaware of.

After an accident puts Gayle in hospital she wants to make amends and asks her assistant to contact her daughters.

The friendship between Mary and Gayle that grows during the book is very heartwarming and the chemistry between Samantha and Brodie is hot hot hot!!!

I loved all the characters even Kirstie who took a while for me to warm to understandably as she had lost her father which is a lot to deal with.

This is a very predictable book but nevertheless I absolutely loved it so much so it makes me want to go to a Scotland.

Thank you to Netgalley and Harper Collins/HQ for the opportunity to read an advance copy in return for my honest review

Another lovely book by this author set in the snowy Scottish mountains, a perfect location for a Christmas story. As always lovely warm characters that you are instantly drawn to and a storyline of families coming together at Christmas overcoming the past. Warm cosy read to get you in the mood for Christmas

If you want to cosy up under a warm blanket with a hot chocolate and a book, while it is getting cold outside, then this is the perfect book for you. It is a lovely, heartwarming Christmas story about Gayle Mitchell and her family and how she reunites with them after being estranged from them for a long time. Although nothing is plain sailing, and there are many ups and downs, hopefully there is a happy ending. You will have to read the book to find out! I really enjoyed this book.

Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

As always with Sarah Morgan, we have a very enjoyable book, one that whisks you away and keeps you engaged in plot and characters. This time it’s Christmas in snowy Scotland. It’s so cosy and heartwarming with likeable characters and a very enjoyable plot. You know the kinds of book where you instantly like the characters and want them happy or to do well, that’s what I got with this.
A great read no matter when you may read this.

I do love Sarah Morgan books and I loved the cover of this book, story line was catchy but didn't grip me like all her others have, which disappointed me a little but was still a good read and enjoyable

While I love Sarah Morgan's writing, this one was a bit meh for me. I enjoyed it, but the stakes just didn't seem there throughout for me. Still, it's a great Christmas/festive season read, and so perfect for that time of the year to curl up with next to a roaring fire
