Let it Snow by Beth Moran #Review

 

Welcome to the blog today where we are looking closer at Beth Moran's latest festive novel, Let it Snow. It was published by Boldwood Books on 30th August.


When your heart's broken, all roads lead home...

After the end of a long-term relationship, local weather girl Bea Armstrong has been avoiding her family, and their inevitable ‘I-told-you-sos.’ But with Christmas fast approaching, she is finally on her way home to Charis House, the school in Sherwood Forest that her mum and dad run in their old family home. And to top it all off, the insufferable Henry Fairfax – who her parents have always wanted her to marry – has also been invited.

Relief comes in the shape of a last minute interview for her dream job. There are just a few minor problems… The interview is in Scotland, Bea has no car, and the snow is falling already. The only solution is for Henry to drive her – could this Christmas get any worse…

But during an unforgettable two day interview, a stay in a log cabin and a nightmare journey through the snow, Henry turns out to be nothing like she thought.  And when Bea’s first love and recent ex shows up, Bea has a difficult choice to make…


 My Thoughts

Warm and uplifting, I loved this festive read, despite the fact that I was reading it in August! Bea's family are not run of the mill and she has obviously been brought up to disregard the material things and to give people another chance. Her approach to her working life as a weather presenter sets her apart and she has built up her own community of listeners through her own kindness. You realise that her own family upbringing has made her the adult she has become. 

    There is plenty of humour in her mother's attempt to have the perfect Christmas although you realise that there is more to it than first appears. Similarly, the characters Bea meets in Scotland make you smile as each task they have to do seem to be more and more preposterous. There is plenty of romance brewing in the background and in all, we have a heart-warming story full of festive touches.

In short: festive family fun
