Christmas Secrets in Snowflake Cove by Emily Harvale * Blog Tour Review**

I'm delighted to be taking part in the celebrations for Emily Harvale's seasonal story, Christmas Secrets in Snowflake Cove.
Christmas is a time for family and friends, miracles and magic, falling snow and roaring fires, fun, laughter and festive feasts. In Snowflake Cove, it’s also a time for secrets to be revealed…

Evie Starr is hoping for more than a sprinkling of magic this Christmas. The family-run Snowflake Inn is virtually empty and the Starr’s financial future isn’t looking bright. But Evie’s gran, Jessie has a secret that might help.

Enigmatic, Zachary Thorn is every woman’s dream. He’s also ex-SAS, so his secrets are classified. The Christmas Special of his feel-good, TV show is set in Michaelmas Bay – until a phone call means he’s spending Christmas in nearby Snowflake Cove.

Evie’s best friend, Juniper thinks boyfriend Darren has a secret. Evie knows he does. And Evie’s niece, Raven is hiding feelings for Juniper’s brother – who has a secret crush of his own.
But the biggest secret in Snowflake Cove is the identity of Raven’s dad.

With snow falling thick and fast and secrets being revealed one after another, will everyone be snuggling up by the fire on Christmas Eve, or are some secrets best kept hidden…?



My Thoughts

This Christmas romance is crammed full of seasonal goodies. I lost count of the batches of mince pies, shortbread and glasses of mulled wine which were served throughout the story. If you are looking for a light, seasonal read, this is ideal for you. Snowflake Cove sounds so appealing and the local community couldn't be friendlier.

    I found the secondary characters the most amusing, especially Evie's grandmother, Jessie, and her recalcitrant, niece, Raven. There is plenty of humour to be found in the Snowflake Inn's  christmas guests, and there are several strands of storylines on the go, which all found a resolution. I was surprised when I was suddenly at the end of the book, so quick was the pace.

In short: a festive tale of love and romance.
