Fans of Milly Johnson and Phillipa Ashley, the Cosy Kettle café is waiting for you to find a comfy spot by the fire and snuggle up with a steaming mug of hot chocolate. Amidst the twinkling lights and falling snowflakes, Becca has a wish to make this Christmas…
Running from heartbreak, twenty-five-year-old Becca has moved to the cosy village of Honeyford. Living with her best friend Zac in a little stone cottage, and serving mince pies and steaming gingerbread lattes at the Cosy Kettle, is the perfect escape from her past.
But starting over isn’t always plain sailing, and Becca’s shyness is holding her back from making her mark on the café. To make matters worse, her crush on blond-haired, blue-eyed local heartthrob Logan gets stronger by the day – but he can barely remember her name. So as the snow starts to fall in Honeyford, Becca has one big Christmas wish: to completely reinvent herself. Becca dreams of bringing the Cosy Kettle success and finding romance with Logan under the mistletoe.
As she gets a makeover, cosies up to Logan over mulled wine and plans the most festive celebration the café has ever seen, Becca wonders why she waited so long to step out of her comfort zone… Zac, on the other hand, thought she was perfect before – always caring for others – and he misses the quirky girl with the bright blue hair.
When Logan turns out to not be all he seems, Becca is left wondering if he’s really the one for her. With her party plans also going awry, can Becca save her beloved Cosy Kettle in time for Christmas? And has the key to her happiness been in front of her all along?

What a warm and cosy read this was, I was enchanted from the first few pages, and just didn't want to be parted from the book until the end.
I absolutely adored being back in Honeyford, at the Cosy Kettle, and getting to know Becca a lot better.
She is a rather quiet, un-confident sort of a character, but has made a Christmas Wish to change, and as realised she needs to set herself goals in order to accomplish this.
With the help of the book club members, we see all manner of changes within Becca, some much better than others, and although as a reader you generally knew where the story would end up, the journey was so good that you just couldn't mind.
We see Becca try to change her appearance, personality, become more assertive, get a date with a man who she fancies, but I knew deep down wasn't the right man for her, and to hopefully end up more like her twin sister.
The actual journey of self discovery is gradual and I loved seeing how it all unfolded, all the while Becca is trying to please Logan with the Christmas party she is putting together for him.
And its with the party that I'd argue the biggest transformation happens, of the Cosy Kettle becoming less cosy and homely and more elegant.
I loved Becca's housemate Zac, he was adorable and just an ever present in Becca's life. We learn why Becca is how she is, and also get to know her family too.
There is a warmth of Christmas feeling throughout, but not over the top. It is the sort of book that would warm your heart at any point over the cold autumn / winter months.
I absolutely adored catching up with the regulars, and discovering every moment of this latest instalment of this fabulous series.
Another wonderful book from Liz Eeles, and I can't wait to see what she writes next.
Thank you to Bookouture on Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
