    The Disgraced Knight's Redemption, the third in Ella Matthews' series, The Knight's Missions, was published by Harlequin Historicals on October 23rd.    A disgraced warrior… Torn between duty and desire! Sir Tristan must win back his honor. His orders from King Edward are simple: seek out the leader of Pwll Du Castle—the unmarried Lady Catrin—and demand she leaves. As Tristan is renowned for his lethal charm and handsome looks, how can she resist? But when the beautiful Welshwoman comes under siege from her covetous neighbor, Tristan finds himself fighting for her! Yet, is it a losing battle?

Snow Falls Over Sunnybrook by Rosie Green #Review #Novella #LittleDuckPondSeries

 


Welcome to Book 18 in the marvellous Little Duck Pond Cafe series of novellas, with Snow Falls over Sunnybrook, by Rosie Green. !

 The chance to spend a night ghost-hunting alone with Hudson Holmes at Brambleberry Manor seems like a dream come true for Ruby Watkiss. Maybe, she thinks, this is their chance to get closer? But when mysterious goings-on start happening which have nothing to do with the spirit world, the pair are catapulted off on another sleuthing adventure. And as the snow starts to fall and emotions are rising at the Little Duck Pond Cafe, Ruby is faced with a double challenge. Can she be braver than she's ever been, in order to rescue something very close to her heart? And can she convince Hudson that Christmas really can be the most wonderful time of the year?

 

My Thoughts

As ever, I enjoyed a return trip to Sunnybrook and was keen to discover how Ruby and Hudson's story was going to pan out. These two amateur sleuths have had their own little cosy crime trilogy within the series which has expended the scope of the stories and added some energy to the storylines. I like how their investigations have been interwoven into the lives of the characters we know so well.

    This is a warm and inviting series. It takes you from Hallowe'en through to Christmas so is perfect winter reading. Whether Ruby and Hudson ever move past best friends I will leave for you to discover. Just be aware that the story is full of friendship, romance and the odd surprise.  

In short: a warm, comforting read
