This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews Thank you to Bookouture for letting me take part in this tour. I love Christmas so I was very excited when an opportunity to take part in this tour came up. I didn't realise that this was the second book in the series. While this did irritate me as I like to read things in order if you don't have that issue there is enough information for you to understand what is going. I personally kept feeling like I had missed something so if you can I would recommend reading the books in order. 

You dive right into the story which I really enjoyed. Sometimes being thrown into the deep end is quite fun. Annie has happily living her life in Salt Bay when her long last father and her half sister show up. To say this is a shock to Annie is an understatement. 

Salt Bay sounds really pretty. Annie spends a lot of time at the top of the cliffs looking out to sea. This spot sounds so beautiful. It made me long for a trip to the seaside. 

This was a lovely story about love, life and family. It is a real warm, festive story. Liz had me hankering for a roast after the Christmas dinner scene. 

I really enjoyed Liz's writing style. There were some really funny parts of this story as well as some really emotional scenes.  Liz had me really feeling what the characters in this book were feeling. Not only when they were at there lowest but also at their highest. There is a real skill to writing these emotions and Liz does it perfectly. I cannot wait to read more from Liz.
