Review of Christmas at Lilac Cottage by Holly Martin - Five *


Blurb:

Welcome to the charming seaside town of White Cliff Bay, where Christmas is magical and love is in the air…

Penny Meadows loves her home – a cosy cottage decorated with pretty twinkling fairy lights and stunning views over the town of White Cliff Bay. She also loves her job as an ice-carver, creating breathtaking sculptures. Yet her personal life seems frozen. 

When Henry and daughter Daisy arrive at the cottage to rent the annex, Penny is determined to make them feel welcome. But while Daisy is friendly, Henry seems guarded. 

As Penny gets to know Henry, she realises there is more to him than meets the eye. And the connection between them is too strong to ignore… 

While the spirit of the season sprinkles its magic over the seaside town and preparations for the ice sculpting competition and Christmas eve ball are in full swing, can Penny melt the ice and allow love in her heart? And will this finally be the perfect Christmas she’s been dreaming of? 

Like a creamy hot chocolate with marshmallows, you won’t want to put this deliciously heartwarming novel down. 

Spend the perfect Christmas in White Cliff Bay this year. Snowflakes on Silver Cove coming very soon. 

Review:

This is a real Christmas treat! A warm, gentle romance between 2 emotionally insecure people. 

Everyone comes with baggage to a certain extent but Penny and Henry seem to have more than their fair share! The path of true love never running smooth is certainly true for them!

Add in Daisy, a town that interferes with their relationship and a difficult past and it's amazing that anything happens!

Penny is an ice carver and Henry is a wood carver, which makes for a natural meeting of minds. I was so hoping they would get through their problems! Add in a snowstorm, Christmas and a charity ball and you have the perfect Christmas treat!
