Title: Snowed In At The Practice
*** Join the residents of Larkford for a festive fling as the snow falls, secrets are revealed and romance blossoms under the mistletoe! ***
Larkford Surgery is the heart of a tightknit community in the Cotswolds, as well as a hotbed of drama, rivalry, resentment and romance - and that's just the doctors …
Dr Holly Graham is finding life with two sets of twins exhausting. Even with husband Dr Taffy Jones and devoted friend Elsie by her side, she is completely outnumbered. Making the transition back to work will be no easy feat but a regular slot on Radio Larkford as their on-air doctor might be the perfect stepping stone, until an unexpected job offer changes everything.
Dr Alice Walker’s new canine clinic at Larkford Surgery with Coco, her assistance dog, has been a storming success. If only shipping her best friend, Dr Tilly Grainger, in from South America to cover for Holly had been such a smooth transition. It seems that Tilly isn’t finding life in the peaceful Cotswolds valley as rewarding as she’d hoped, and she is causing chaos ...
Curl up with the wonderful new novel from the bestselling author of Out of Practice and winner of the RNA Romantic Comedy Award 2017.

How good it was to be back in Larkford and at the Practice.
Although it feels like it was ages since I read the previous book in the series within a page or two I felt as though I had never been away.
Such is the memorability of these characters that the book feels like coming home almost instantly and I couldn't wait to see what was in store for all the doctors this time around.
And wow what a lot is packed into this latest episode of what could easily be my favourite doctors drama series on TV.
There are so many story lines to follow that even if you aren't keen on one, then give it a few pages and you will have something else to follow.
This is all about families, and how they come in different shapes and sizes. About how mothers may feel as they contemplate going back to work, and all manner of other issues.
I loved how the ideas of assistance animals has been expanded and Banana is a welcome addition to the role, and an utterly adorable one at that.
Then there is Connor who has moved to Larkford, a former rock star, he just wants to be a farmer and lead a quieter life, but is there more to his taking on every waif and stray animal than meets the eye
Of course it was wonderful to catch up with Holly and Taffy and their two sets of twins, the introduction of a new nanny to help them out. And seeing how Dan and grace are getting on in their new relationship too.
Plus getting to know Tilly, Alice's friend who is working at the Practice while Holly is on maternity leave.
Not to mention everyone's favourite Grand Dame of Larkford, Elsie - I'll leave it to you to discover what she is up to this time!
I read this while I was recovering from dental surgery and it proved to be a wonderful distraction from me feeling sorry for myself and generally being in pain.
I loved every second of this latest addition to this wonderful series, and just asked that Penny Parkes doesn't leave it as long between books next time.
I need more from Larkford and I would love it now! Such a wonderful series, and I do think this could be read as a standalone, but why deprive yourself of other fabulous books?!!
Thank you to Simon & Schuster and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
