Review: Christmas at Lilac Cottage

Christmas at Lilac Cottage Christmas at Lilac Cottage by Holly Martin
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Penny Meadows might be single, after a disastrous ending to her first relationship many years ago, but she loves her cottage, her smelly dog, her friends in the village and her job as an ice-carver. But she is a bit lonely, so she is delighted to be renting out the annex to her cottage. She and her new tenant Henry have an instant attraction, but he is wary of falling for anyone without his daughter's approval after one too many mistakes. Also he's moved for a new job at the local high-end furniture manufacturers and doesn't want to jeopardise that by falling out with his landlady.

This is super cute and very sweet, I have a loathing of heroines who have only ever had one boyfriend/lover but this just about squeaked through. It's set at Christmas, there's a village party, an ice-carving competition and plenty of women just queueing up to take Henry out for a spin.

If you want a gentle, feel-good, holiday romance then this is the one for you.
