Summary

Includes an exclusive letter to the listener read by Carole Matthews herself!

Indulge in this lovely, cake-filled novel of romance and friendship. Christmas Cakes and Mistletoe Nights is top three Sunday Times best-selling Carole Matthews at her heart-warming best!

Fay and Danny are madly in love, and it's all Fay's ever dreamed of. But she left everything - including the delightful cake shop she used to run - to be with Danny on his cosy canal boat, The Dreamcatcher. And as she soon finds out, making delicious cakes on the water isn't always smooth sailing!

Then Fay gets a call from her friends, a call that sends her back to her friends and the Cake Shop in the Garden. It will be hard being away from Danny, but their relationship is strong enough to survive...isn't it?

Fay soon falls happily back in love with her passion for baking - especially now she's on dry land again! - and starts to wonder if she ever should have left. With Christmas around the corner, Fay is determined that her friends will have a very merry time, but does that mean even more time away from Danny? Can Fay really get everything she ever wanted in Christmas Cakes and Mistletoe Nights?

60 yr old narrator playing 40 yr old character..

I don’t understand the choice of narrator at all! It makes a main character who’s apparently in her early 40’s sound like a pensioner. I’ll keep
Listening as I’ve paid but it’s very off putting.

Loved the story... hated the narrator!

Easy listening from start to finish - a great follow on story. Easily the worst narrator I've ever listened to though. Made me cringe the whole way through!

I got completely immersed in this book

I was delighted to find this book is the sequel to The Cafe in the Garden. I really fell in love with all the characters and the storyline. I laughed and cried through it.

maybe I'm a bit soppy but I really loved it

The accents!!!

The story was good, nice and enjoyable characters but wow the narrator is too old for the main character and boyfriends accent goes from Sottish to Irish over and over.

A great Christmas scene setter

This is a sweet, no brains needed, story.
Bring your heart and your tissues ... sets the Christmas scene perfectly.
