Summary
A wonderful warm festive treat from Sunday Times bestseller Trisha Ashley.
The perfect gift isn't always under the tree...
Single mum Cally's life is all about her little girl Stella. She's resigned to the fact that the only romance she's going to get is from the rom-coms she watches, and with her busy job and her daughter, she doesn't have time to even think about love.
But life gets very tough when Stella gets sick. Balancing her job as a recipe writer and looking after Stella is all consuming, so when Cally meets handsome baker Jago the last thing she wants to do is fall in love, especially when she's been badly burned by a Prince Charming from her past.
Can laid-back, charming Jago unlock Cally's frozen heart and help her find true love and magic under the mistletoe?
Come home for Christmas with this gorgeous festive treat, perfect for fans of Katie Fforde and Jill Mansell.

Enjoyable heartwarming story
Lovely story full of lively characters and a wonderful sense of community throughout.
I found the narration a little tedious, dragging out of words, slow speech and shocking French pronunciation!
