On the last day of school before the festive break, the village of Lytell Stangdale resembles a shaken snow globe. Teaching assistant Ella Welford trudges home through the storm to her beloved Rose Cottage, where she soon has a log fire roaring and festive music filling the cosy rooms. With her beloved Tabby-Cat and two guinea pigs for company, Ella has built a peaceful life for herself in the Yorkshire Moors. But as the years seem to drift by faster than ever, she can't help but wonder if there's something more waiting for her.
When Ella bumps into the last man she expected to see back in the village, a flurry of long-buried feelings hit her at once. Last time she saw Joss Campion, they were both sixteen and best friends. But their friendship was shattered after an accident at his parents' farm, when Joss was banished from the village.
As the blizzard worsens, Ella finds herself drawn back into Joss's world. But with old wounds still raw and new complications arising, she can't ignore the feelings she's kept buried for almost two decades. When a Christmas Eve emergency brings them together in the most unexpected way, will they finally have the courage to let their friendship kindle into something more?
Return to the enchanting Yorkshire Moors for a heartwarming tale of second chances, festive magic and finding your way home. Perfect for fans of Trisha Ashley, Katie Fforde and Sarah Morgan.
