Review: Mistletoe at Moonstone Lake

Mistletoe at Moonstone Lake Mistletoe at Moonstone Lake by Holly Martin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have been a big fan of Holly Martin’s for many years, so it’s always a delight to start a brand new story. I just love the safe, warm, and happy feeling I have when reading a Holly Martin book. So I had high expectations for Mistletoe at Moonstone Lake, and I was not disappointed!

I love the Jewel Island, reading another book set here is like returning to a happy and comfortable home. The community is welcoming, and the scenery spectacular (this time we discover Moonstone Lake). The Christmas market and the snow make the atmosphere wonderfully festive.

The characters, as always, are great. I loved Kit and Zoey, and the way they initially met was certainly entertaining. They are both lovely people, and I really enjoyed the process of them getting to know each other. The other characters were great too.

The plot was delightful, I can’t really say much without spoilers, but we get a little excitement and a bit of a mystery, but not enough to be stressed by. As you can probably tell, I loved everything about this book!

Overall, this was a lovely, Christmassy and romantic story, which will have you finishing the last page with a happy and satisfied sigh of contentment.

I was given a free copy of this book, my opinions are my own.

Review: The Christmas Love Letters: a gorgeous, heartwarming new Christmas romance to cosy up with this winter

The Christmas Love Letters: a gorgeous, heartwarming new Christmas romance to cosy up with this winter by Sue Moorcroft My rating: 5 of 5 stars I love Sue Moorcroft books, and Christmas books, so I was excited to be invited to read The Christmas Love Letters. I was not disappointed! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I loved the story relating to the love letters, and how they (eventually) brought people together. I loved the setting. Nelson’s Bar is clearly a beautiful place near the sea, and all the snow made the book seem extra Christmassy. The characters were also great. I loved Maddy, and the way she’s coped under difficult circumstances, and given Lyla such a lovely childhood. I really liked Raff too, and in fact all the other characters, with the exception of Harris. I understand his reasons, but that is not how you treat anyone you care about! Sue Moorcroft has produced another beautifully romantic and Christmassy story. I highly recomme...

Blog Tour - Murder in Mayfair

  Review - 5 out of 5 stars: I love the Lady Eleanor Swift mysteries, and Murder in Mayfair was no exception. This time, Eleanor is trying to solve a murder and a burglary at the same time. I really enjoyed being along for the ride as she frantically tries to find the truth.  Eleanor is a favourite character, I love her forthrightness and the way she never gives up. She’s also kind and compassionate. I loved the way that she, Clifford, and Hugh worked together on this case. The mysteries themselves were intriguing, and I enjoyed the way finding out new facts gradually revealed what had actually happened. And I was still surprised at the reveal!  As always, I enjoyed the historical notes at the end. Overall, this was another excellent mystery from a favourite author.  I was given a copy of this book, my opinions are my own. Book Description: Tea and cake at The Ritz, a stolen pearl necklace and a missing dead body… Lady Swift is back on the case! Lady Eleanor Swift ...

Review: The Enforcer Enigma

The Enforcer Enigma by G.L. Carriger My rating: 5 of 5 stars Gail Carriger (aka G. L. Carriger) is my favourite author, and I will read anything she has written. I have high expectations, and she exceeds them every time.  This book was wonderful, just like all the others in this series. It was both hilarious and touching. It had a beautiful, heartwarming plot. As usual, the use of language is wonderful, and often playful, in a way that reminds me of P. G. Wodehouse (though the plot is obviously not alike). I really can’t recommend this series (and Gail Carriger in general) enough. View all my reviews
