'This book had me in tears! A wonderful story of love, Christmas, and reclaiming yourself!!! I love Tilly Tennant's books!!!' My Life as a Dog Bed Christmas is coming but it doesn't feel that way for Esme Greenwood. Recently jilted by her cheating fianceeWarren, she's had enough of London life and escapes to Thimble Cottage in the Peak District, home of her beloved grandmother Matilda. While Esme mourns for the wedding she'll never have, Matilda puts her granddaughter back together again with comforting words and generous helpings of fruitcake and together, they plan the trip of a lifetime, to Lapland to see the northern lights, somewhere Matilda has always dreamt of going. But tragedy strikes and when Matilda dies, Esme screws up the courage to go on the trip on her own to honour her beloved grandmother's wishes. At the airport she meets a motley crew of characters including Zach, a handsome, brooding, out- of- work actor and together they set off for an adventure of a lifetime. Beneath the indigo skies of Lapland Esme and Zach grow closer. But when Esme is bombarded by messages from Warren promising he's changed and she discovers that Zach is hiding something very significant-will her head be turned? And when a trip to the northern lights reveals the full extent Zach's own secret past is there any hope that Esme will get the happy ending that her grandmother wished for her? Readers are falling in love with The Christmas Wish: 'Tilly Tennant has done it again such a fabulous cosy Christmas story. I only meant to read a chapter or two but have ended up finishing it in one sitting--that's the sign of a great book! Loved Esme and was really hoping the best for her throughout, plus the scenery and setting of the story is just so festive!' Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars 'I loved this book from the first page, it was so enchanting... had you hooked... The research was done so well and so well-written. Amazing places they went to that you believed you were there in person. It's full of heartbreak, romance, finding out what you really want from life to be happy and it's heartwarming too. Worth far more than five stars and didn't want it to end such a great read... Simply brilliant read, highly recommend it to anyone.' Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars 'What a lovely cosy Christmas novel! I loved everything about it and devoured it in one day straight!' Netgalley Reviewer, 5 stars
