Blog Tour and Happy Publication Day to A Scottish Christmas by Emma Bennet

ABOUT THE BOOK

Alistair Duncan hates Christmas. His wife left him and his daughter on Christmas Eve. To make matters worse, his family have announced they are coming to stay at his sprawling Scottish estate. He needs help planning a big family Christmas.

Alistair braves the holiday rush in search of an events company. But instead he finds himself standing in a Christmas pop-up shop, offering the job to the quirky shop assistant. To his shock, she accepts.

Rose wastes no time Christmas tree shopping and party planning, and before long the Duncan family estate is a mass of ribbons, presents and twinkling lights — even the family goat Houdini gets into the spirit!

But planning the family Christmas means being involved in Alistair’s life, especially his 12-year-old daughter Isla. And the more Alistair sees how Rose fits into his family, the more the ice around his heart begins to thaw.

As Christmas Eve approaches, and Rose is due to return to London, it’s time for the Christmas magic to weave its spell . . .

MY THOUGHTS

When you’re thinking festive holiday comfort read, may I suggest A Scottish Christmas? This was such a fun read, and I loved everything about it.

A former event planner, Rose Aldridge hasn’t had an easy time of it, money is really tight. With her mother’s passing she’s barely been scraping by at a Christmas pop up shop she’s been working at.
Can the very unexpected happen? Well, it does for her a handsome Scottish businessman hires her to plan a big family Christmas event.

I loved reading about Rose as she’s completely in her element with the decorating and event planning for his family’s stay.
Alistair Duncan has no use for Christmas, it just signifies painful memories for him. This year, he wants it to be different and make it special for his daughter and family.

The grumpy sunshine trope is one of my favorites and it’s so heartwarming to see this single dad have such a positive relationship with his daughter.

This is a slow burn romance. Alistair is not looking for romance, but a sprinkle of holiday magic has brought Rose into his life as a party planner. Alistair and his daughter both see how well Rose fits into their life, will winter be a little warmer with her in it?

Such a charming read and I loved how acclimated Rose became to their life, she fit right in.

I was given a complimentary copy of this book.

Fall in love this Christmas.

Working the festive period in a pop-up Christmas shop was not how Rose Aldridge was expecting to spend December. But neither was she expecting to meet a handsome, brooding, Scottish businessman.


Have a lovely day. Thank you for stopping in.
