Christmas on the remote Scottish island of Mure is bleak, stark - and incredibly beautiful.

'Gorgeous, glorious, uplifting' Marian Keyes
'A cracker - the must-read this festive season' Sun
'Irresistible' Jill Mansell
'Just lovely' Katie Fforde
'Naturally funny, warm-hearted' Lisa Jewell
'A gobble-it-all-up-in-one-sitting kind of book' Mike Gayle

It's a time for hunkering down, getting cosy in front of whisky barrel wood fires, and enjoying a dram with the people you love - unless, of course, you're accidentally pregnant to your ex-boss, and don't know how to tell him. In what should be the season of peace and goodwill on earth, will Joel think Flora is a bearer of glad tidings?

Meanwhile Saif, the doctor and refugee from war-torn Syria is trying to enjoy his first western Christmas with his sons - but without his missing wife. Can the little family possibly find comfort and joy?

Travel to the beautiful northern edge of the world and join the welcoming community of Mure for an unforgettable Christmas.

Left me wanting more storyline around Colton although it was brought to a rounded end story for him - the 2main characters well I wanted to tell both to just grow up and talk to each other plus too much in depth sexual description around one set of people - it’s a short book too and could have been longer

A bit lacking

I usually like Colgan's books for a bit of escapism, and I do love a good Christmas story in the lead up to Christmas. But this one was full of death, disharmony, and misunderstandings. a bit grim for Christmas escapism and cheer. It ended on an okay cheerful-ish note I guess, but still left me feeling meh, rather than uplifted and looking forward to Christmas.

Not the cheery Christmas story I was hoping for
