Three witty and fun romances set at Christmas time, all with different characters, different locations and all made me smile.
Merry Hell
Meredith (Merry) is getting married today to Jason yes it is Christmas but that is just what she wanted, but things don’t go to plan when Merry is jilted at the altar, the best man Mike who Merry has known since they were at school steps in to make sure she is OK but does he have other reasons could it be that he wants Merry and what about Merry when she really thinks about her feelings. This one is filled with lots of fun.
The First Noelle
Noelle has just broken up with her boss, boyfriend and decides that she will be maid of honour at her best friend’s wedding, but that means a trip to New Zealand, the trip over is terrible she is crammed between two men, one of whom although very good looking makes her blood boil for the wrong reasons and she is hoping not to see him again but life throws curve balls and it appears that the obnoxious man, Sam is the best man, Christmas day on the beach will change Noelle’s life.
Holly Ever After
What happens when New Zealander, Holly who is teaching in England gets locked in a stationary room with grounds man, Scottish Clyde, overnight well the sparks will fly could this be the turning of their lives could they find love?
I did very much enjoy these three stories, I think Holly and Clyde were my favourites, all three stories had me laughing and cheering them on, these stories are described by the author a messy, fun rom coms and I totally agree, if you are looking for short Christmas stories that will brighten your day then this book is one I highly recommend.
