A Cosy Countryside Christmas by Eliza J. Scott

 




Synopsis:


Ella Welford’s done with love. After having her fingers burnt, she’s been resolutely single for the last year and has sworn to stay that way.

Joss Campion’s still reeling from a messy divorce and has vowed never to open his heart to love again.
Growing up in the picturesque village of Lytell Stangdale, with the North Yorkshire Moors as their playground, Joss and Ella were best friends. The pair were inseparable.

Until the day something happened to ruin their friendship and Joss moved away.

An urgent telephone call summons Joss back to the village. His father’s been rushed to hospital and he’s needed to run the farm. When he returns, with his loyal canine companion, Sid, in tow, it isn’t long before he realises things aren’t as they seem. Why is his brother, Rich, being so evasive? And why does he get the impression the farm’s in trouble?
Teaching Assistant, Ella, has just broken up for the Christmas holidays and is looking forward to spending more time on her parents’ farm, tending her variety of rescue animals and recharging her batteries.

It isn’t long before the pair run into one another and sparks of attraction begin to fly - not that either of them will admit to it. But, just before Christmas, they find themselves thrown together in an unexpected turn of events as a fierce snow blizzard rages around them.

Could this be the moment that changes everything? Or is their past too big to ignore?

One thing’s for certain, life’s never dull in this little corner of the North Yorkshire Moors.
Join Ella and Joss – and all the usual Lytell Stangdale characters – for a heartwarming festive read



Review:





Joss Campion comes back to Lytell Stangdale after a long "exile" to help at his estranged dad's farm while his father is at the hospital. He is still ashamed for how he departed from the village as a teen so he doesn't want to meet anyone while he is there, but fate has other plans for him and the first person he meets is Ella Welford, his best friend and first love interest. Will they rekindle their friendship? Or their time together is too short?

It was such a pleasure to visit Lytell Stangdale again during the winter and to feel again part of this community, with these kind friends and families always ready to help.

Joss and Ella were two endearing characters, after so many years spent apart they still feel guilty for their past mistakes, but it was nice to see how they try to bridge their lost friendship making amends. They were perfect together and it was impossible not rooting for their happily ever after, especially so near to Christmas.

Eliza J. Scott delivered a sweet story, easy to read that take you on the Moors while it's snowing but without the cold, and that's always a win for me.

The Wallflower and the Running Back by Ginger Scott

        Synopsis: I was supposed to be bumping shoulders with the best and brightest in chemistry at a London University. Instead, I’m bumping into the shoulder pads of Tiff U’s star football player. And I’m his tutor. I’ve never had many friends. The only one I thought I could count on ended up stealing my scholarship—and then my boyfriend. Now, instead of spending my fall semester abroad, I’m stuck here in Iowa, with zero funds and even less hope that I’ll get to study abroad at all before I graduate this spring. Even worse? My mentor asked me to take on the impossible—tutoring arrogant running back Logan Ford and helping him finally pass Chem 101. Apparently, the team needs him, and the governing board is cracking down on letting grades slide for athletes. Normally, I’m all for accountability. Except now getting him to pass is my problem. And everyone on campus is looking to me—Rachel Edwards, chemistry genius, bonafide introvert—to get it done. I’m about to give up before I start.
