His Last Christmas Gift by Debra Borchert #Review

    His Last Christmas Gift by Debra Borchert will take you to a different country and season. It was published by Le Vin Press on 1st November 2025. Widowed, fired, and 50, Claire is one hot mess. This later in life romance hits like a snowball packed with grief and hope and mystery and the kind of second-chance that says, “I didn’t think I’d ever feel this again, and now I’m terrified, but… Hi.” Romance that’s frost melting off a windowpane. It’s “I forgot my heart could do this.” It’s love doesn’t have an expiration date. Twinkly lights, mulled wine and flaming crêpes so immerse you in Christmas markets—you’ll book a flight to France before the fares go up. A book club fiction favourite, Claire’s journey of self-discovery is perfect for fans of women’s fiction and stories about strong women over 50 navigating reinvention with inspiration, humour, with a delicious frosting of romance. “Give yourself the gift of a lush, romantic, French adventure and be swept away ...

Here Comes the Best Man by Angela Britnell ** Blog Tour Review**

Today we are featuring Here Comes the Best Man by Angela Britnell on the blog today. Her latest novella in the Nashville Connections series was published on 10th July.
 

Being the best man is a lot to live up to …



When troubled army veteran and musician Josh Robertson returns home to Nashville to be the best man at his younger brother Chad’s wedding he’s just sure that he’s going to mess it all up somehow.



But when it becomes clear that the wedding might not be going to plan, it’s up to Josh and fellow guest Louise Giles to make sure that Chad and his wife-to-be Maggie get their perfect day.



Can Josh be the best man his brother needs? And is there somebody else who is beginning to realise that Josh could be her ‘best man’ too?

My Thoughts

 There is plenty to enjoy in this novella. Most of all I appreciated the cast of characters who were introduced. Anyone who has ever been connected with organising a wedding will recognise the chaos it can bring, with too many people wanting to voice their opinions on canapes and favours. It captures the ups and downs of this pre-wedding period when everyone's emotions are heightened.

    I also enjoyed the contrast between the Southern charm and English reserve which gives rise to some humour, especially when discussing the two countries' customs and tastes. It is a quick, enjoyable read, with plenty of romance as Josh and Louise try to come to terms with the past. 

In short: Cornwall comes to Nashville for an entertaining, romantic episode.
