Warming the heart on a cold Christmas night.

An Echoes of Nutt Hill novel. Perfect for fans of Joanna Trollope.

Luke is the man with the money, the fast car and the hot woman. There’s no way he would even think about getting serious, but a face he can’t remember soon threatens his calm.
​ Rebecca isn’t interested in a relationship, and definitely not with him. How could she, after all he put her through? She’s spent the last 4 years hiding away from society, a one woman crusade for children’s road safety. Who would have thought one fateful day, it might almost be her ... again.
   As two worlds collide, will opposites attract? Not if she can help it.


I'm not a fan of Christmas. To me it just means extra stress and work, but in my story Chances Are, I may have weakened just a little.
  Luke and Rebecca are near the end of their journey by the time the festive season arrives. They come together with so much uncertainty between them. And it is in Lower Nutton, the village at the heart of all the Nutt Hill stories, where the ending happens.
   In my head, I could see it: a cold crisp winter's night; snow hanging in the air just waiting for the right moment to fall; in the distance, children are knocking door to door singing Christmas carols. It's dark. A hush settles all around as families everywhere settle down for the night. There is a knock at the door and...
  Maybe I do like Christmas after all. I love Christmas Eve; all the excitement and expectation. All the tradition and calm overriding the internal struggles of the children determined to be good for one more night. Peace rests on a rural idyll and love is free to conquer all.
   That is my idea of a wonderful Christmas. What's yours? There's a copy of this book to be won by one lucky reader. Leave me a line about your favourite part of Christmas in the comments to be in with a chance. Competition open throughout the bloghop days.

I see your point about the stress and so many deadlines around Christmas. But when all is said and done, it is a wonderful time to catch up with family.
