Publisher's Summary
Welcome to Thornwaite, a quaint village tucked up in England’s beautiful but rainy Lake District...where homecomings happen and surprises are in store for the four Holley sisters....
Anna Holley, the third of four sisters, has always felt a little bit forgotten. A family tragedy when she was a child had her retreating deep into shyness, and social anxiety kept her on the fringes of the cozy chaos of the busy vicarage.
After several years away from home, Anna returns for Christmas...and an important announcement from her father. As much as she once loved the village, coming back is hard and puts Anna’s social capabilities to the test.
Avoiding her sisters’ bossy questions, she heads out to the local pub one night, and meets a handsome stranger nursing a pint. Somehow, unburdened by expectations, Simon seems like the perfect person to spill all her secrets to - including a hopeless, long-held crush on her sister’s boyfriend. Confident she’ll never see him again, Anna returns home...only to discover the next day that Simon is actually her father’s new curate!
Anna is beyond mortified, but Simon won’t let her retreat into her usual shyness - and for once Anna is forced to confront the past, and all the fears and feelings she’d tried so long to hide. But with his own heartache that needs to heal, can Simon help Anna to make this the most magical Christmas either of them have known?

easy read and it was free!
I want to read the rest of the series now. Even though it's the third book of the series it flows as an introduction to this family's life, the highs and lows.

So English!
I did enjoy this book, apart from being frustrated by so much English reserve and protocol! But I would like to hear what happens next, maybe in a while - need to listen to something else in between 😁.

A completely delightful read!
This warm tale of Christmas at the Vicarage is completely engaging. The story of Anna and Simon set against the background of the village. Part of the story encompasses grief. The grief of an accidental death of a sibling while still a child. The grief woven into the story of the characters lives is handled sensitively and with hope. Well narrated and beautifully read, I found myself looking forward to hearing more of the story.

A Christmas tale
Beautifully performed. Rather a predictable story line, however, a very relaxing listen. Glad I didn’t pay for it though!
