Best Mistake Ever by Christy McKellen

  This is a new to me author but I am delighted to feature on the celebrations for the latest novel by Christy McKellen , Best Mistake Ever . It was published by Boldwood on 16th January. Some mistakes are worth making Beatrice Donovan would do anything for her identical twin sister. Including stepping into her hotel management job temporarily and pretending to be her - she’s desperate. What could go wrong? A lot apparently! Because her sister Delilah has hugely understated her role – the hotel is at risk of closure and she’s promised she can turn it around. Now Bea has to find a way to fly under the radar, get the job done before anyone notices their switch up. Sounds easy, all Bea has to do is avoid her temporary new boss Jonah.

Rewrite the Stars by Emma Heatherington, #Review @fictionpubteam

I am so happy to be taking part in the celebrations for Emma Heatherington's Rewrite the Stars. I absolutely loved this book.
From the moment they meet one December day there’s something between Charlotte Taylor and her brother’s best friend, Tom Farley. But Tom’s already taken and Charlie has to let him go…

It’s another five years before their paths cross again only a secret from the past forces Charlie to make a choice. She promises herself she’ll never look back…

The years pass and Charlie moves on with her life but she can never forget Tom. He’s always there whispering ‘What if?’.
Can Charlie leave the life she has built for one last chance with Tom?  Or is the one that got away not really the one at all…? 

 A stunning Christmas romance for fans of One Day in December and Jojo Moyes

My Thoughts

This book swept me along. I loved the underlying theme of what would change if you were to make different decisions at certain points in your life. I wasn't sure right up to the end what Charlie was going to do but I was totally involved with her character. You get to follow her story over the years and see how she reacts to what others want her to do. Her relationships within her family are all complicated but credible and often, she puts others before herself.

    I found this to be an uplifting read despite some of the darker themes which are buried in the background. Seeing how the past can shape the present but not dictate the future runs throughout the story and makes you think about what would happen if you were to take ' the road less travelled'. Christmas is present in the story but does not dominate although it makes perfect sense within the story when it does occur. This is a five star read for me. 
 
In short: A great read which takes a hard look at what matters in a relationship.
