"I'll be Home for Christmas is like the perfect cup of hot chocolate: warm, comforting and sweet but with lots of depth, it will leave you with a huge smile on your face. Nobody does Christmas romances like Jenny Bayliss." —Freya Sampson, USA Today bestselling author of The Last Chance Library and Nosy Neighbors
"The holiday season would not be complete without a new book from Jenny Bayliss, and I'll Be Home for Christmas might just be my favorite yet!" —Falon Ballard, USA Today bestselling author of All I Want is You
"A delight of a read, I’ll be Home for Christmas is complete with whimsy, intriguing family dynamics, and cozy nooks to get lost in. I love the deep humanity of these characters, and the healing they find on their journey! Bayliss writes with such care and heart." —Courtney Kae, author of In the Event of Love
"Jenny Bayliss is a Christmas book queen." -People
From Putnam's beloved holiday author comes another charming, British wintertime tale following one dejected woman's trip home to her eccentric great-aunts, her wayward mother . . . and her first love.
Fred Hallow-Hart isn't in love with the idea of returning home to Pine Bluff. But after a bad breakup and a subsequent eviction, she's fresh out of options. God knows she loves her mum and her eccentric aunts-and who could forget their Christmas Cracker family business?-but she's always felt a little out of place in her small town.
Quickly roped in by her mother to help with the cracker shop, Fred decides throwing herself into work might actually be what's best for her. Until she reconnects with her old best friend Ryan, who is suddenly making her heart flutter in ways she's never known; and unexpectedly finds a spark with Warren, a charming journalist covering the Pine Bluff Christmas Market for the Daily News.
But as these connections slowly lead Fred back to her heart, she's forced to confront some harsh truths, which, if she doesn't find a way through, might just ruin the holidays for those dearest to her. Can Fred let go of the past enough to recognize real love? And when she does, how far will she go to protect it?
