I've literally just finished this book and I can't stop smiling, for lots of reasons, just one being that the lovely Donna Ashcroft has included me in the acknowledgements of her latest book. As a book blogger, it's the little things like this that make all the reading and reviewing worthwhile.

The entire book made me smile, it was Christmassy, and cuddly, and cosy and I loved it. I have to admit there were tears at the end, but I promise, they were happy tears. 

Christmas Resort is a holiday village in the Scottish Highlands where it's Christmas all year round and where people visit to experience mince pies, hot chocolate, sparkling reindeer statues, crackling log fires and twinkly fairy lights everywhere. Many of the people who live, work and visit Christmas Resort find themselves on a journey of self-discovery and through a myriad of emotions usually leave in a better place than when they arrived....or just don't leave at all!

I'd thoroughly recommend that you buy yourself a copy of Donna's latest book or add it to your Wishlist for Christmas. It's such a lovely read, whatever the weather and will make you dream of Christmastime.

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review Christmas Secrets in the Scottish Highlands by Donna Ashcroft.
