Maddie's Christmas Wedding is the latest novella by Rosie Green.   With the wedding of the year approaching, excitement is running high at the café! But there's just one problem. Maddy is grappling with a secret. Could it derail all of hers and Jack's glorious plans for their big day? Will there actually be a wedding?   My Thoughts In this latest festive story, we are taken out of Sunnybrook, in fact, out of the country and taken for a wintry stay in Lapland. It is Maddy's hen party gathering so some of the Little Duck Pond characters are along too. The story continues on from the earlier Cosy Nights and Snowball Fights . The setting is idyllic and so different to life at home. Everything shimmers and shines in the snow and the temperatures are extreme.

Escape to the beautiful coast in this heartwarming romance

Dare to dream big…

When Nancy opened her dream bookshop overlooking the golden sands and shimmering waters of Driftwood Bay, she may have taken on a little too much. She might know all about books, but doesn’t know the first thing about business! She did however, want to do something meaningful with the inheritance money she got from her beloved Aunty Theresa.

When Dennis, visiting grandson of one of her dearest friends, offers to help, Nancy knows she can’t say no. Dennis is a high-flying businessman, with a fancy London job and a successful banking portfolio to prove it.

Trouble is, he makes the worst first impression. Nothing short of an insufferable know-it-all, Dennis takes every opportunity to remind her how out of her depth she is.

But Nancy knows her strengths, and just as much as she needs Dennis, he needs her too. There’s plenty she can teach him, and the more she shows off her world of Driftwood Bay, where the pace of life is slower and the morning sunrises are the most beautiful thing you can witness, perhaps they could become more than just business partners?

An utterly gorgeous romantic read set by the beautiful Cornish coast, perfect for fans of Phillipa Ashley and Heidi Swain


 My Thoughts

Nancy is at the centre of life in Driftwood Bay, opening her Bookshop down in the harbour. She is full of great plans for the future as she looks to realise her childhood ambition of owning her own bookshop. Once Dennis arrives, with his business brain turned on, you begin to see just how naive and slightly unrealistic her plans have been. Her belief that if she puts her wishes out into the world, all will be well seems under threat and she risks losing her investment.

    Dennis is an interesting character who takes time to open up and reveal his true character. There are a few secrets in his past and in some ways, he is hiding away in Driftwood Bay, looking for a distraction from his work. As the story develops, Dennis seems to re-evaluate his life and what he thinks is important. This is a gently amusing romance with a cast of characters who make up a supportive community. Family is important to Nancy but you can see that her brother's experiences have influenced her attitude towards relationships.  Her parents are a model of caring partners, in contrast. This is an enjoyable read, with a lovely setting and main characters who you can get invested in.

In short: a gentle romance to enjoy
