Review: Let It Snow

Let It Snow by Beth Moran
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Bea Armstrong is a weather reporter for the East Midlands news TV show, she is a firm favourite with the viewers, many of whose questions she answers live on air wearing he quirky weather-themed outfits. Having just split up (again) from her long-term boyfriend and rock star wannabe Adam in June Bea has been avoiding her well-meaning but nosey family, but she can't get away from spending an extended Christmas break at their ancestral home-turned school for teenagers with behavioural issues.

Ever since the break-up Bea has been a little bit distracted, missing meetings, forgetting emails, generally getting muddled up, one of her colleagues is convinced that her intern, Summer, is deliberately sabotaging Bea, the latest incident being Bea missing out on the company-wide mandatory invite to Christmas drinks in the pub.

When Bea finally arrives home, hours late, flustered and with a suitcase of random stuff she threw together at the last minute, she is mortified to find that her parents have invited her childhood arch-enemy and all-round goody-two-shoes nerd Henry Fairfax to spend the Christmas break with them. It was bad enough their parents plotting their wedding when they were children but heavy-handed matchmaking just months after the end of her long-term relationship is just crass.

But when Bea receives a call inviting her to attend an in-person interview for a national news presenter position, the only person who can get her to Scotland in heavy snow is Henry and she soon discovers that the boy with the bad hair cut, grandad fashion sense, and thick glasses has turned into someone quite gorgeous, even if he is still a bit on the nerdy side.

A family Christmas, enemies-to-love, romance with snow, cute moppets, a school show, a singing granny, a weather-themed treasure hunt, and a parental mystery to solve? What's not to love?

I devoured this, it was cute, quirky, feel-good and delivered all the feels.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
