It’s Christmas time in Lytell Stangdale!

When Romy Stainthorpe sees Holly Tree Cottage staring back at her from the pages of a magazine, she’s sure it’s a sign. The quaint property, situated in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors, is steeped in happy memories. It’s a place she spent many carefree days until her family’s hasty departure twenty years earlier. It’s where she had her first kiss and where she first fell in love… And it’s available to rent for the festive season.

Could it be the perfect getaway Romy needs to escape her friends and family’s well-meaning attempts at matchmaking since her split from Russ?

Local farmer, Finn Tindall is struggling to navigate the first Christmas since his divorce from his ex-wife Britt. He’s thrown himself into his work and rarely ventures out, unable to face the pitying glances thrown his way. His only company is his loyal black Labrador Ted.

Convinced that fate is talking to her, Romy heads back to a snowy Lytell Stangdale. Once there, she’s thrilled to see the village is looking Christmas card-pretty and has embraced the festive period. The only place where there’s no Christmas cheer is Finn’s home at Castlegate Farm.

It doesn’t take long before Romy and Finn’s paths cross, setting long-hidden emotions stirring once more. Suddenly Christmas doesn’t seem so gloomy after all.

Could this be the exciting fresh start each of them deserves?

While they’re navigating their renewed feelings, external influences seem intent on putting obstacles in their way.

Will Finn and Romy decide their love is worth fighting for? Or will they think it’s time to say goodbye?

Why not take a trip to festive Lytell Stangdale where a warm welcome awaits and happy-ever-afters are guaranteed?
