A Little Christmas Hope by Kathryn FreemanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
What do you get if you mix a newly-promoted headmistress of a small town school, a bad boy actor who has just been written out of a hospital soap opera and a Christmas school play? Why, a charming holiday romance with all the feels, that's what.
Anna Dalton has suffered years of interminable Christmas school plays directed by a worthy, but unimaginative teacher. Dan Ramsey's reputation is in the gutter following his being written out of a long-running hospital soap opera which led to a series of photos of him stumbling out of nightclubs with scantily-clad women and an article which accuses him of abandoning his son. In an attempt to improve his image Dan's agent suggests he volunteer at his childhood school, as the Head, Anna sees Dan's offer as an opportunity to revive the school play, she is under no illusions as to the reason for his offer.
As a single mother, Anna is horrified by the article about Dan, but after seeing him with the kids at her school she starts to mellow. If ballroom dancing lessons with OAPs, cute moppets rehearsing for a Christmas play, charming actors and a feel-good romance sounds too good to miss then I recommend this book.
