Christmas at Holly Tree Cottage

by Eliza J Scott

Overview

Romy Stainthorpe could never forget her holidays spent at Holly Tree Cottage. It's where she finally felt like she belonged – and where she first fell in love. So when she spots her family's old holiday cottage in a magazine, she books a Christmas break there on impulse, hoping the cottage can work its magic on her once again.

Entering the cottage after twenty years away feels like coming home. But it's her reunion with Finn Tindall that truly takes her breath away. Her former best friend - and first love - has grown into a handsome farmer, yet he still has the same effect on her heart as when they were teenagers.

After an evening of carol singing on the village green leads them to a stolen moment under the mistletoe, Romy can't deny the sparks flying between them. But when Finn's ex returns to the village unexpectedly, determined to keep them apart, will Romy overcome her instinct to run away when things get hard? Or can she finally find the courage to fight for the love that always felt meant to be?

Return to the enchanting Yorkshire Moors for a heartwarming tale of second chances, complete with a mischievous Labrador, sour apple sweets and the magic of coming home. Perfect for fans of Trisha Ashley, Katie Fforde and Sarah Morgan.

About the Author

Eliza lives in North Yorkshire with her family and has wanted to be a writer as far back as she can remember. She is inspired by her beautiful surroundings and loves to write heartwarming stories based on romance and friendship with a generous dollop of community spirit and a hint of humour. She’s had fifteen novels published and has been an Amazon UK Kindle top ten bestseller.When she’s not writing, Eliza can usually be found with her nose in a book or working in her garden doing a spot of plot wrangling (of the writing variety), and battling against the weeds. The weeds, unfortunately, are currently winning, but Eliza is undeterred. Roses are amongst her favourite flowers and she doesn’t need much of an excuse to visit a plant centre, where a new rose always seems to mysteriously find its way onto her trolley, much to her husband’s astonishment.Eliza also enjoys having a catch-up with friends over tea and cake, as well as bracing walks in the countryside, rounded off by a visit to a teashop – for yet more tea and cake!
