Will Dani find love this Christmas? Or will she be Single All The Way...?

When Dani's boyfriend (and boss!) dumps her for a younger model, the only silver lining she can see is to be able to spend Christmas at home with her family after years away.

Determined to surprise them, Dani turns up unannounced in her hometown, excited to see that the festive season in Marram Bay is in full swing with Christmas lights twinkling on every corner. But disaster strikes when she finds her parents' house is empty and they appear to have gone away on holiday!

Christmas alone and single is not ideal, and when Dani starts bumping into old friends, neighbours and potential love interests, she can't face telling them the truth. So in a panic she claims to be home to throw a Christmas party for the whole town - easier said than done with 12 days to go before Christmas...

As the fake party approaches, little does Dani know that there may be someone there under the mistletoe for her, if she can just let her guard down and see them...

A laugh-out-loud festive romantic comedy from top 10 bestseller Portia MacIntosh, guaranteed to put a smile on your face this Christmas.

As a huge fan of Portia MacIntosh I have to say it was very good to be back in Marram Bay and Hope Island for Christmas.  I love this setting, and it's always a pleasure to read a new book set there. 

And this one was you I have come to expect from the author incredibly funny too, plenty of moments to giggle away at, and many layers of almost farcical deception too. 

Arguably you shouldn't find yourself liking someone who lies as much as Dani did in this story, but she really has backed herself into a corner and can't help herself to the extent she sounds relieved when she is able to tell even partial truths! 

I loved all the Christmas lights, the zoom chats, the fun little games that Dani plays with Rex, and also seeing her re-connect with people from her past. It's all incredibly entertaining and I was loving every moment of the book. 

Not only is there a brief fake boyfriend in this story there even a fake party taking it up a notch further, and there are home alone vibes going on too. 

It's just so enjoyable and another book from this author that I was filled with joy to read. 

Thank you to Boldwood Books and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
