I received a free copy of, Christmas at a Highland Castle, by Rachel Barnett, from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Jess gets to work at a castle for Christmas, yes it needs a lot of work, and yes her boss, does not want her, the castle, or his title. Jess has a lot of work to do this Christmas season. This was a nice Christmas read.

Oh I do love Christmas and I do love a good Christmas read. And this is a real feel-good and cosy Christmas read that I enjoyed immensely. The characters and their stories are lovely and heart-warming, the setting is a perfect winter wonderland. This book took me to a place so different from my own that it really transformed me.

A very fun, cosy and enjoyable book that is so easy to read. Bring on more Christmas books I say. Loved it and recommend it.

Thank you NetGalley and Embla Books for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.

This was a great read . Not the story I expected . I love the snow, the two love stories , Jess makes you appreciate your up bringing but she was lucky having Aunty Vivi. As for Digby the dog, at times you laughed. I read in an evening and just escaped . Siblings can be cruel and loving .You will love it. A perfect chill read.

Rachel Barnett’s “Christmas at a Highland Castle” is the book you need if you’re looking for a cozy winter romance. It took me a chapter or two to get into the book, but once I did, I throughly enjoyed watching Jess and Sebastian fall in love. Additionally it was nice to see a few of the supporting characters also find their happy endings. I only wish we could’ve seen a little more of Vivi at the end and another scene in the epilogue with Jess and Sebastian. But it didn’t take away from the sweetness of the story.

4.5/5 stars

Another fabulous book by Rachel Barnett! Truly enjoyed it. Atmospheric, and simply wonderful. I'm not a winter fan but books that bring warmth are perfect!

Christmas at a Highland Castle was a festive and enjoyable read. It starts off with mixed communication and difference and then fully blooms into everything you are hoping it will be. This was my first book to read by Rachel Barnett and I hope to read more in the future.
