Christmas is the perfect time to fall in love. . .

The little English town of Lullbury Bay is a magical place to spend Christmas, and for Honor Martin it is the high point of her year.

However, newcomer Jago, doesn’t share her merry mood. After the devastating loss of his father he’d be happy to never hear another Christmas carol again.

But to help his little sister replace bad memories with good ones, he reluctantly joins in the festivities. As he gets to know her teacher, Honor, could she be the one to restore his love of Christmas?

Georgia Hill writes warm-hearted and up-lifting contemporary and timeslip romances about love, the power and joy in being an eccentric oldie and finding yourself and your community. There's always a dog. It's usually a naughty spaniel of which, unfortunately, she has had much experience. She lives near the sea with her beloved dogs and husband (also beloved) and loves the books of Jane Austen, collecting elephants, Belgian chocolate and Strictly Come Dancing. She’s also a complete museum geek and finds inspiration for her books in the folklore and history of the many places in which she’s lived.

She’s worked in the theatre, for a charity and as a teacher and educational consultant before finally acknowledging that making things up was what she really wanted to do.

She’s been happily creating believable heroines, intriguing men and page-turning stories ever since.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A great way to start Christmas reading!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2023
    This was the perfect way to begin my Christmas themed reading! Going into a Christmas romance, you know what to expect: characters who live, get into an argument or misunderstand, fix it when they can’t live without one another, and a happy ending. This didn’t disappoint—and there were some unexpected plot lines along the way.

    This book is a very wholesome holiday story. I will definitely read this author again. Thank you Bloodhound Books for the ARC!

    4.0 out of 5 stars A good holiday romance
    Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2023
    A lovely story, yet felt a bit slow and drawn out. Peaks of excitement or interesting happenings were strung throughout and kept my interest in the story.

    The overall story is quite good. A mistaken relationship causes confusion, yet leads to a sweet relationship developing. The book is all about new beginnings and fresh starts. A great book for the holiday season.

    This is a sweet holiday story that will put you in the mood for the holidays. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed reading and look forward to seeing what is next for this author. This is a well written story about second chance at love and forgivness. I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into the story from the beginning. They have great growth throughout which added to the entertainment value of the story. I really enjoyed this story and I highly recommend it.

    I'm having such a hard time writing this review so much I love about this wonderful book. Jago, kind, loving, supportive and Avril his mother have decided to move their family to Cornwall for the sake of the child after losing the father they loved so much and Jago's divorce. That child Merryn turned out to be wise beyond her years and brought new hope to her family. Honor her teacher soon included them all in the towns activities. Christmas Tree Cottage in Lullbury Bay such a perfect choice for a new home. The best gift to the family is the warm loving community. The use of Christmas carols at the start of each chapter is genious. This to me is a modern Nativity story. No shepherd but Tom at the rescue centre where Ivy the wolfhound was adopted to be the new family dog. No Angels but a beautiful teacher named Honor and her angelic choir of children that soon becomes more than Merryn's teacher. Each receive gifts from three wise women: Maisie, Avril's new friend introduced her to the Knitting Ninjas, Verity the Vicar becomes Jago's greatest supporter and sympathetic ear, Lucy the voice of strenght and hope when things get scary Christmas eve. Of course love is the biggest gift, Honor and Jago are finally free to love again after sorting out a small misconception. I loved it all and will reread it at Christmas for sure.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A total delight, emotional and uplifting, everything I want a Christmas read to be
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 14, 2023

    When the Pengethley family move into Christmas Tree Cottage, at the top of the hill that leads down into Lullbury Bay, what everyone sees is a close and loving family looking for a fresh start in their friendly community. What they don’t see is the difficult time that brought them there – the tragic loss of husband and father Kenan, the grief that followed, and the way Jago has held the family together. When young Merryn starts at the local school for what’s left of the Autumn term, teacher Honor is enchanted by her bubbly enthusiasm for anything and everything, including all the preparations for Christmas that she so loves – but also drawn to the attractive man holding her hand. She doesn’t know the family relationships – Jago is Merryn’s much older brother, Avril his mother – and she steers clear at first, believing him out of bounds, confused when her interest seems to be reciprocated.

    Jago has always been the strong one – but with young Merryn finding her feet again, and mother Avril beginning to make new friendships through the knitting club, it might just be time for him to try to move forward too. His art has taken a back seat, but it might just be time to start thinking about making his large pieces in stained glass again – but Christmas can be a difficult time, his grief is still raw, and he’s going to need some good support to cope with it all and help the family make new memories. He finds it in a place he doesn’t expect – the local church, with vicar Verity (and what a great character she is) – and also discovers an artistic community he can become part of. And once Honor’s misunderstanding is out of the way, it also opens up the possibility of romance in both their lives.

    This book is just wonderfully Christmassy – the nativity play, the turning-on of the Christmas lights, the yarn bombers and their every new display, the carol service, all an absolute delight – but this was also a book with a great deal more depth than I was expecting. It deals – exceptionally sensitively – with the challenges of moving on from grief and being able to feel happiness again, while never forgetting the loved one who was lost. And, more unusually, it deals with it from a male perspective – and I found that particularly powerful.

    But I’d hate to give the impression that this book is heavy in any way, in fact it’s the absolute opposite. Its characters are just wonderful (both major and minor – and especially young Merryn, spouting her quotes from Shakespeare, and showing a wisdom beyond her years), the romantic content is strong and convincing, there’s plenty of lightness and laughter, and there’s a lovely sprinkling of four-legged friends of various persuasions. But there’s drama too, particularly well-written and that had me on the edge of my seat – as Jago makes a difficult decision to follow his heart and put himself in the path of danger, bringing uncomfortable memories of everything the family has lost.

    I really loved this one – a delight from beginning to end, great storytelling, emotional and uplifting, and everything I wanted a Christmas read to be. Highly recommended, and definitely one you’ll want to add to your pre-Christmas reading list too…

    Christmas is exactly the time of year for a reliable romance; a time-honoured trope, relatable characters, super-cute children and more mince pies and mulled wine than you can shake the proverbial stick at.
    On all of the above and more, this book delivers in spades. The community of Lullbury Bay is beautifully drawn, with every single local character shining out from the page. It’s a gorgeously reassuring place to spend a fictional Christmas; warm and welcoming, yet spiced with humour.
    When Jago’s family arrives in November they’re carrying scars they decide to keep secret, but of course this leads to misunderstandings, even as they are absorbed into the village’s heart. And school teacher Honor makes the biggest mistake of all. I’m not going to spoil the story; put on your Christmas jumper and dive into the book yourself to find out.

    Jago, recently divorced and grieving the death of his father, tags along with his mother and little sister on a sea-change to Lullbury Cove. Jago, much to his surprise, finds himself attracted to the local primary school teacher, Honor. The attraction is mutual, but Honor is shocked by Jago's advances, especially considering that he is the husband of her new pupil's mother. Load of fun and heart-warming moments. A wonderful Christmassy romance.
