THE COSY CHRISTMAS CHOCOLATE SHOP: The perfect, feel good romantic comedy to curl up with this Christmas! (Cosy Chocolate Shop)

*The new, deliciously festive ‘Cosy’ novel from the Kindle bestselling author of The Cosy Teashop in the Castle*

The snow is falling, the hot chocolate’s warming, and hearts are melting . . .

Emma is the proud owner of The Chocolate Shop by the Sea, nestled in the heart of the cosy seaside village that’s become her home. With Christmas right around the corner, she and her assistant Holly are busy cooking up the locals’ festive favourites.

From cinnamon hot chocolates to reindeer lollipops, Christmas wouldn’t taste the same without a little cocoa magic. And for Emma it’s the perfect distraction from her romantic pains of the past. So when the shop’s miserly landlord threatens to hike up the rent, Emma’s Christmas and New Year suddenly look a lot less cheerful.

With the whole village rallying behind her – and loyal spaniel Alfie by her side – Emma’s determined to hold onto her chocolate-box dream.

The chocolate calendar countdown is on. Can Emma rescue her business and her broken heart?

Family, friends, food, a glass of bubbly and, of course, a good book make me smile. I believe in following your dreams, and my love of writing led me here to HarperCollins publishers and HQ. Stunning Northumberland is my home – sandy beaches, castles and gorgeous countryside that have inspired my novels.
