Title: Difficult Husbands by Mary De Laszlo
Published by: Bookouture
Available from: 31st October 2014
We all know just how difficult Christmas can be, and ladies, we all know how difficult men can be right?
Well, Mary has written a book to lift us up and make us smile from the heart outwards this festive season. Let's see what it's all about:
THE BLURB:
Three friends. One surprise inheritance. And the perfect plan to deal with troublesome husbands at Christmas time…
Newly divorced Lorna is struggling to adjust to life on her own. When she discovers that her beloved godfather has left her the grand (and crumbling) Ravenscourt House in the heart of Sussex, she soon has a project on her hands.
Nathan sells delicious goodies at Mulberry Farm. When he meets Lorna at a Christmas market, neither of them can ignore the chemistry. But as they get to know one another, Lorna wants to know one thing – is he after her or the house?
Together with Gloria – whose marriage to alcoholic Adrian has hit rock bottom, and Rosalind – struggling to deal with her womanising husband Ivan, the three friends hatch a plan. They’ll ditch their difficult husbands at Ravenscourt House and enjoy stress-free Christmases with their families. But nothing is ever that simple…
Doesn't it sound really entertaining, and enjoyable? I know I for one will be looking forward to curling up with my kindle to read this over the coming weeks.
An entertaining story of family, friendship and new beginnings that will delight fans of Trisha Ashley, Carole Matthews and Katie Fforde - of which I am a huge fan of all three lovely ladies!
You may have guessed that since my reading of Mr Miracle by Debbie Macomber, I am in a festive mood and am eager to read as many Christmas themed books as I can this year. Here are two festive reads that are due to be published the first week in October! (Days away!!)

The Third book in the Snow Crystal Trilogy
This winter, ex-skiing champion, reformed heartbreaker and single dad Tyler O’Neil has only one mission – making sure his daughter Jess has the best Christmas ever. The fact that his best friend Brenna is also temporarily moving into his chalet at the over-booked Snow Crystal resort is a delicious distraction he’s simply going to have to ignore. Theirs is the one relationship he’s never ruined, and he’s not about to start now.
Ski pro Brenna Daniels knows all about the perils of unrequited love – she’s been in love with Tyler for years. But living with him is absolute torture…how can she concentrate on being his friend when he’s sleeping in the room next door? Then when Tyler kisses Brenna, suddenly the relationship she’s always dreamed of feels so close she could almost touch it. Could this be the Christmas her dreams of a happy-ever-after finally come true?
Don't they both sound fabulous? I'm just not sure which one to read first!

Title: Christmas on Chestnut Street by Nancy Thayer
Published by Random House - Ballantine Books
Publication Date: 28th October 2014
I am seriously excited to read all the wonderful Christmas themed books that will be released this year that I'm considering starting super early... now! Since I read my first ever festive book last year I have been eagerly awaiting new titles to read during Christmas 2014. Random House have been kind enough to send me the proof copy of this fabulously festive read by Nancy Thayer; Christmas on Chestnut Street. It sounds film worthy of festive spirit.
THE BLURB
In this enchanting holiday novel from New York Times bestselling author Nancy Thayer, family and friends gather on Nantucket for a gorgeous winter wedding with plenty of merry surprises in store.
As Christmas draws near, Felicia returns to her family’s home on the island to marry her adventurous, rugged boyfriend, Archie. Every detail is picture-perfect for a dream wedding: the snow-dusted streets, twinkling lights in the windows, a gorgeous red and white satin dress. Except a lavish ceremony is not Felicia’s dream at all; it’s what her mother, Jilly, wants. Jilly’s also worried that her daughter’s life with daredevil Archie will be all hiking and skydiving. Wondering if their handsome neighbor Steven Hardy might be a more suitable son-in-law, Jilly embarks on a secret matchmaking campaign for Felicia and the dashing stockbroker.
As the big day approaches and Jilly’s older daughter, Lauren, appears with rambunctious kids in tow, tensions in the household are high. With the family careening toward a Yuletide wedding disaster, an unexpected twist in Nancy Thayer’s heartwarming tale reminds everyone about the true meaning of the season.
