Summary

Adam Catchpole is a successful sci-fi author.

Well, he was a successful sci-fi author, which is a more accurate statement because his book sales are sinking faster than a piece of Martian rock in a pond.

As such, his mortgage is in arrears, Stacey, his girlfriend, has deserted him, and he can’t afford fuel for his overpriced Porsche.

Facing eviction and a trip to the job centre, Adam’s agent suggests he might consider writing books for another popular genre, such as spicy romance or Christmas novels. But the problem is that he’s relatively useless with anything considered romantic (as Stacey would confirm), and he hates Christmas.

Still, if he wants to put food on the table, he settles for the lesser of two evils and attempts to write the perfect, if not reluctant, Christmas novel.

Well, that’s the plan, at least. Because, like many timeless festive classics, things often don’t quite go as originally planned....

Wow a very slow start that almost made me give up. However it did finally pick up pace and was thoroughly enjoyable.

Another superb story from JC Williams with likeable characters set in idyllic Isle of Man. The twists and turns keep you wanting to read on and on and the feel good spirit, though tainted with some emotion have you laughing, and in some instances crying, albeit in the latter case, not for long as the heartwarming, comic feeling soon returns in abundance. The juxtaposition with The Lonely Heart Attack Club was smashing and it was great to be re introduced to old loveable characters Jack and Emma along with fabulous new characters too. Just a wonderful, lovely tale.
