It's easy to identify with the protagonist of this book. Seventy-one-year-old
Sandy has had enough: enough of cooking turkeys (which, as a vegetarian, she
doesn’t eat), enough pies and enough shortbread cookies. She’s had enough
bickering, feuds over the Xmas dinner goodies and fisticuffs with the mince
pies. Solution? Run away.
Well, not so much run away, as down tools and leave them all to it.
Sandy picks what she hopes will be the perfect spot to enjoy
her fuss-free Xmas and finds an expected but very welcome little bit of
icing on her own Xmas cake in the form of a gentleman.
A sweet and entertaining little seasonal tale sprinkled with
charm, appeal, and feel-good: qualities I am beginning to become accustomed to
from this author who knows how to strike the right chords.
