Love and Lies at the Village Christmas Shop by Portia MacIntosh
4.0
I've read a few Portia Macintosh books and they never disappoint. They are light, easy reads that put a smile on my face and have me looking forward to the evening when I can curl up with and read.
Love and Lies At the Village Christmas Shop revolves around two main characters, Ivy and Seb. Ivy is running a year-round Christmas shop when Seb turns up intent on buying the land it operates on and developing a holiday village. Ivy is horrified and determined to fight against his plans, but despite this finds herself attracted to Seb.
Ivy is gloriously imperfect, and that's part of her attraction. She assumes many things and gets them wrong. She makes mistake after mistake but is honest enough to admit to them and correct any harm she's done. Seb is the perfect gentleman but is he prepared to compromise on his plans to ensure that Ivy sees him as the person he really is?
The book is amusing, with relatable characters and a perfect Christmas read with a storyline that would make a Hallmark Christmas movie.
