Title: Just For ChristmasAuthor: Emily HarvaleFormat reviewed: EbookSource: Author supplied copyPublisher: Crescent Gate PublishingPublication Date: 25th November 2020Rating: 5 Stars
A sparkling and festive, feel-good romance to bring joy to your heart this Christmas.
Finding an abandoned dog beside the road isn’t the Christmas surprise Molly Ford is hoping for. But when the local vet can’t find a space for the bedraggled dog, Molly makes a rash decision.
The problem is she’s spending Christmas with her brother, Terry, and his girlfriend is allergic to dogs, so the bundle of wet fur, which Molly has named Miracle, might not be the only one needing a home this Christmas.
And Miracle causes chaos wherever he puts his paws. He pees on the Christmas tree, shreds the Christmas presents and eats the honeyed ham. That’s just the first night.
When Terry’s best friend, Chance offers Molly and Miracle a place to stay for Christmas, Molly is ecstatic. She doesn’t mind at all when he informs her there are strings attached. She’d rather like a festive fling with the gorgeous Chance.
Now Molly’s in for another surprise. Chance is about to pop the question, except it’s not to Molly. In fact, he needs her interior design skills to get the dilapidated cottage he’s bought, all clean and sparkly in time for his girlfriend’s impending arrival on New Year’s Eve.
But as Molly and Chance grow closer, enjoying the Christmas festivities together beneath a star-filled sky of a winter wonderland, they realise they have feelings for each other.
Could this be true love? Or is it just for Christmas?
This is a whole lot of fun, and through in a will they - won't they get together sort of a romance, some festive cheer and some four legged friends you have this brilliant book!
It was a very quick book to read, shocked me that I read around the first 40% in under an hour, and kept up that pace for the rest of the book, any time I could grab a moment I had to keep reading to see what delights Emily Harvale had in store for us next.
Miracle is hilarious, naughty, but he really is a lovely dog, just with a nose for mayhem, at least initially. He's not the only dog in the book and its because of Miracle that Chance comes back into Molly's life for Christmas.
He offers them a place to stay in exchange for design expertise, as he wants to get his new cottage ready to propose to his girlfriend on News Year Ever - however it becomes very apparent from the first few exchanges that Molly and Chance may not be admitting their true feelings.
I loved getting to know Molly, Chance, Terry, Sarah and Vicky and romance and Christmas are definitely in the air. And snow is on the ground, which made the Snowball Pie competition even more fun than it normally would have been.
Really believable characters, light hearted feel to the whole book, and all of Emily Harvale's always wonderful writing style makes this a welcome addition to your festive reading this Christmas.
Thank you to the author for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
