Publisher's Summary

The sparkling new Christmas audiobook from the Sunday Times best-selling author Heidi Swain! 

When Anna takes on the role of companion to the owner of Wynthorpe Hall on the outskirts of Wynbridge, she has no idea that her life is set to change beyond all recognition. 

A confirmed ‘bah humbug’ when it comes to Christmas, Anna is amazed to find herself quickly immersed in the eccentric household, and when youngest son Jamie unexpectedly arrives home it soon becomes obvious that her personal feelings are going all out to compromise her professional persona. 

Jamie, struggling to come to terms with life back in the Fens, makes a pact with Anna - she has to teach him to fall back in love with Wynthorpe Hall while he helps her fall back in love with Christmas. But will it all prove too much for Anna, or can the family of Wynthorpe Hall warm her heart once and for all?

Join Anna for a festive journey festooned with sleigh rides and silver bells and help her discover her happy ever after.

Christmas joy

A wonderful Christmas story. When Anna takes on a new job as companion to the owner of a large country house she gets more than she bargains for. Has her aim to outrun Christmas finally come to an end? Will she find love, happiness and the elusive part of her life, a much longed for family. Delightful Christmas read.

Fairy Floss

Nice enough but not really my cup of tea. Very sugary sweet and predictable but with no real substance.

Wonderful

I love Heidi Swain's books - this one included. It's so cozy and wintery and Christmassy. The absolute perfect read for those cold winter nights.
There is just the right amount of tragic and sadness, and a huge serve of romance and love and I just couldn't put it down at all. I found myself listening to the book even during breaks at work.
Once again, Karen Cass did a marvelous job narrating. She really brings the lovely community to live.

A good in-between book

A light hearted, predictable romantic novel. Easy listen and good for a break from my usual crime/action novels.

Perfect Christmas Cheerful Read

I loved the story, the characters and fun in this story. Perfect to listen to whilst busy preparing and doing Christmas things. Lots of fun moments, great narration, predicable but light and fun to listen too.

Christmas - humbug

I wouldn't bother. I couldn't finish it.

The book is so cheesy, predictable and so naff.

It's like reading a Mills n Boon novel - shallow in content and story line. Cringe worthy and nauseating.
