Could it be magic by Fay Keenan #Review #BrambletonBook2


 

Festive reading continues with Fay Keenan's latest romance, Could it be Magic? It was published by Boldwood Books on September 7th.


Thea Ashcombe, a fiercely independent single mum, is about to face her toughest challenge yet: Christmas on a shoestring. As the festive season looms, Thea’s feeling a little like their old family Christmas tree - tired and lacking in sparkle!

Nick Saint, the quiet and devoted farm shop manager in the idyllic village of Lower Brambleton, has secretly liked Thea for years. Trapped in the friend zone since high school, he's given up hope of Thea seeing him as anything more than reliable ‘Saint’ Nick...

But when Thea steps into Nick's world to help at the bustling farm shop, something unexpected happens. Suddenly, her sensible head is spinning with a schoolgirl crush she never saw coming! Is it just the enchanting glow of Christmas, the twinkling lights playing tricks on her mind?

As they work side-by-side preparing for the magical Christmas market, and as Nick's thoughtful gestures – like a perfectly fresh Christmas tree appearing at her door – begin to melt her defences, Thea starts to wonder – maybe all she really needs for Christmas... is Nick!


 My Thoughts

 I enjoyed Book 2 in this Brambleton series, which is set on the outskirts of Bristol. Thea is a determined young woman who has been struggling to bring up her children who are her central focus. She was brought up in Brambleton along with her brother and her feisty grandmother still lives locally and is a great support. Thea resorts to working in the local farm shop to help ease the pressures of Christmas.

    Nick Saint manages the farm shop and has always carried a torch for Thea. However, he is afraid to step out of the friend zone as it may jeopardise their long friendship. This is a gentle sort of romance with plenty of festive touches which makes it the ideal seasonal read. You catch up with the characters you met in Book one of the series but the story moves on as second chances rises to the fore.

In short taking a risk
