Summary

The joyous Christmas novel from the Sunday Times top-ten best-selling author of A Family Recipe and The Beach Hut.

Everyone adores Christmas....

Especially Lizzy Kingham. 

But this year, she is feeling unloved, and under-appreciated by her family. The present-buying, decorating, and food shopping have all been left to her. So she wonders...what would happen if she ran away and left them to it? Lizzy heads to her favourite place: a beach hut on the golden sands of Everdene. 

There, she meets an unlikely collection of new friends, all running away from something. But the spirit of Christmas gets under Lizzy's skin: soon the fairy lights are twinkling and the scent of mulled wine mingles with the sea air. Back at Pepperpot Cottage, her family are desperate to find her. For Christmas isn't Christmas without Lizzy. Can they track her down in time and convince her she means the world to them, every day of the year?

I Absolutely Loved this Book

If anyone is feeling a bit down at Christmas them this is the book for them.
The story & characters were brilliant. I shed happy tears at times & even though the book had to come to an end, I was sorry it finished.
I would definitely recommend it.

A magical festive listen

Victoria Henry has the ability to write such an amazing story and yet have the ending turn out exactly how you hoped. A magical festive story.
The characters come to light and you feel yourself getting to know and love them.
Definitely give this a go!
