Camryn and and River have come to the idyllic small town of Wishing Tree for very different reasons. As always, the town works it Christmas magic and they find themselves falling in love with Jake and Dylan. Filled with festive cheer, including a dog named Tinsel, this book can’t help but get you in the mood for Christmas! The sense of family and community from the townspeople leaves you with a warm glow and a smile on your face. I love this series and reread it every year when my tree goes up!

A lovely festive read based on a fabulous wintry setting. I’d love to find a place like Wishing Tree. The characters were all believable and very human and the story developed very well. Certainly worth reading to put you in the Christmas frame of mind.

Home Sweet Christmas @susanmallery

Thank you to @netgalley
For allowing me the chance to read such a wonderful book 🙂

This is a book for all Christmas fans. I devoured this book and I adored it. It was like having a comfort blanket around me at all times 🎅

The book centres around Camryn who has returned to Wishing Tree after losing her mother. She returns to look after and support her twin sisters through their grief and help run the family business "Wrap Around the Clock" which is a place I really want to work. Who wouldn't want to wrap presents 🎁all day?

Family is really at the core of this book and we have it in abundance through the storytelling. Not only do we have Camryn but we are also treated to River's story. So it's like two books in one. Both women are very strong and successful in their own rights but a little lonely.

Enter our gentleman Jake and Dylan to spice up these women's lives with some romance added in ❤️It's such a sweet and heartwarming story that is written beautifully.

We also have loads of Christmas references with a dog named Tinsel, all the shops being called something christmassy and even a Snow King and Queen 👑❄️ This sounds like my ideal place to be at Christmas.

I devoured this book and would recommend to anyone who needs to get in the Christmas spirit. I've also found a new author 📚❤️

This was a sweet and cosy festive read. I found myself really rooting for the couples 🥰 I hadn’t realised it was second in a series, so I’m looking forward to reading the first book set in Wishing Tree now. It has a kind of Christmas on Gilmore Girls feeling and it seems ready to be Netflix Christmas special for sure!
