Escape to the cosy little village of Appledore for hot chocolate with extra marshmallows and a second chance at love. Can an unexpected offer make Chloe believe in miracles again?
A year after she separated from her husband, Gianni, on Christmas day, Chloe's heart is finally on the mend as she unpacks the decorations for her first ever festive holiday alone. That is, until the phone rings…
It's the manager of Gianni's new seaside restaurant in Appledore, begging for her help. Equally famous for his gold-leaf Christmas puddings and his explosive temper, Gianni has been really stirring up a sensation with the locals – and not in a good way! It's the last thing she wants to do, but Chloe knows she is the only one that can help.
As pans fly and the temperature in the kitchen rises, Chloe's calming influence and magic touch might just get critics back on side in time to save the restaurant from sinking like a sad soufflé. But could it also re-light a spark in her realtionship ?
Chloe came to Appledore ready to move on, but when the snow clears, will she finally find the way to back her husband's heart?
A laugh out loud festive treat that will give you the tingle of freshly hung tinsel. Perfect for fans of Jenny Colgan, Abby Clements and Debbie Johnson.
