I received a free ARC copy of this via NetGalley and the publishers in return for an unbiased review. I’m always eager to read the next instalment in this series which I’ve grown to love.

The Dolphin and Dartmouth play a much smaller part in this one, where much of the action takes place at Oldway in Paignton, and the Winspear’s house nearby. We also start to see Kitty and Matt’s wedding approach, scheduled for Christmas Eve, and more about what they will do in terms of living together and Kitty’s future with the hotel.

Overall another very good instalment in the series, giving us more of our favourite characters. I’m really looking forward to the wedding!
