Home This Christmas

After leaving her childhood village heartbroken, chef Ruby hasn't been home in years. But could a chance trip down memory lane be the secret ingredient for a magical holiday season?

Ruby hasn't been back home since she made the heart-wrenching decision to leave her childhood sweetheart, Nathan, for a career in London. But when she's invited to judge the charity gingerbread competition, she decides it's time. And it seems there's Christmas mischief at work. Because Nathan is joining her as a gingerbread judge.

But it's clear he would rather she'd stayed away, from his icy silence when they are alone, to the snarky comments and his accusing glare as they prepare for the event with other members of the community. And all Ruby wants to do is get back to London.

Then bad weather leaves her snowed in the village until after Christmas, with nowhere to stay. And things go from bad to worse when she slips on the ice... And falls straight into the arms of Nathan.

The pain of her injured ankle is nothing when, her heart aflutter, Nathan surprises her. As he scoops her up and sweeps her off to the hospital, it seems like the frost between them is finally thawing. But could the magic of Christmas mean a second chance is possible? Or is it too little too late?

Grab a blanket and curl up by the fire with this completely addictive and absolutely gorgeous festive romance, which fans of Sarah Morgan, Tracy Rees and Heidi Swain will love!
