All Suzanne McBride wants for Christmas is her three daughters happy and at home. But when sisters Posy, Hannah and Beth return to their family home in the Scottish Highlands, old tensions and buried secrets start bubbling to the surface.

Suzanne is determined to create the perfect family Christmas, but the McBrides must all face the past and address some home truths before they can celebrate together...

Cozy story about three very different sisters coming home for Christmas. No great surprises or twists in the plot, but I didn't expect that either - it's a chick-lit Christmas story! There was perhaps a bit too much drama for me to actually call it a feel-good book, as there were plenty of times where I wanted to take one sister and use her to hit the other.

But of course it all worked out in the end - it's a Christmas story, it had to! - and for all the drama, I loved that none of it was long term, and that beneath it all, the genuine affection between the family members was clear to see. Oh, and I ADORED Melly and Ruby - as an auntie myself, I thought the description of them was spot on!
