About this listen

'Nobody does get-away-from-it-all romance like Jenny Colgan' Sunday Express
____________________

Christmas on the remote Scottish island of Mure is bleak, stark - and incredibly beautiful.

'An evocative, sweet treat' Jojo Moyes
'Gorgeous, glorious, uplifting' Marian Keyes
'A cracker - the must-read this festive season' Sun
'Irresistible' Jill Mansell
'Just lovely' Katie Fforde
'Naturally funny, warm-hearted' Lisa Jewell
'A gobble-it-all-up-in-one-sitting kind of book' Mike Gayle

It's a time for hunkering down, getting cosy in front of whisky barrel wood fires, and enjoying a dram with the people you love - unless, of course, you're accidentally pregnant to your ex-boss, and don't know how to tell him. In what should be the season of peace and goodwill on earth, will Joel think Flora is a bearer of glad tidings?

Meanwhile Saif, the doctor and refugee from war-torn Syria is trying to enjoy his first western Christmas with his sons - but without his missing wife. Can the little family possibly find comfort and joy?

Travel to the beautiful northern edge of the world and join the welcoming community of Mure for an unforgettable Christmas.

This story is beautifully written, dramatic, gripping and atmospheric. It is however, terribly, terribly sad. Do not expect cheerful Christmas chick lit with this book because it is wonderful but in a very different way. I found myself unable to stop listening, especially towards the end and crying through most of it. Most Christmas books at this time of year are cheerful and full of seasonal optimism - be warned - this is a very different kettle of fish. Wonderful, well written and well narrated.....
Well done Miss Colgan!

So sad!!!

I loved this book. Left me all warm and fuzzy, wanting to bake scones and adopt Bramble the dog.
Just a great read and well read as always by Sarah. Jenny Colgan is fast becoming my favourite author in this time of Covid it's so nice to escape into another world.

I love the full Mure series

Let me start by saying that stories set at Christmas are almost always going to be a winner for me. Christmas festivities, good food, open fires and snuggly blankets are my idea of heaven. So, when I went off on my jollies back to Mure, which let's face it, is almost at the end of the world and guaranteed to be freezing cold, I was beyond excited.

Sadly, in this book, life isn't all sunshine and roses for some of the residents of Mure. Firstly, Saff is facing his first western Christmas for him and his boys and their first without his wife, their mothers. This turns out to be more challenging than he thought it would be. Flora is pregnant by her ex-boyfriend Joel. She has no idea how to tell him and even less idea about how he will react to the news. Will he be happy or angry with her? Finally, Colton and Finton. Just when they have found each other, Colton receives some devastating news and their world falls apart. I definitely did NOT see that coming!!!

Part of a great series

Everything about this series is perfect. I couldn’t love it anymore, Sarah Barron is just wonderful as the narrator and I find myself completely sucked in from the beginning. I’ve read some reviews that say they would expect this to be the end but I can’t see how? I need more saif in my life!

Tell me there will be more!!
