Rose Aldridge was not expecting to be working the festive period in a pop-up Christmas shop. She wasn’t expecting to be offered a job, planning the perfect Christmas, by a handsome, brooding Scotsman either!
Alistair Duncan hates Christmas. His wife left him and his daughter on Christmas Eve. Now his family have announced they are coming to stay at his sprawling Scottish estate. He needs help. When he meets Rose, looking fed-up selling tinsel and baubles, he offers her the job. To his surprise she accepts.
Rose wastes no time Christmas-tree shopping and party planning. Before long the Duncan family estate is a mass of ribbons, presents and twinkling lights — even the family goat, Houdini, gets into the festive spirit!
But the more time Rose spends with the Duncan family, especially Alistair’s 12-year-old daughter, Isla, the more Alistair sees how perfectly she fits in . . . and the ice around his heart begins to thaw.
As Christmas Eve approaches, and Rose is due to return to London, it’s time for the Christmas magic to weave its spell . . .
