A WINTER FLAME.

Here it is, my thoughts on the last Book of 2018. Apologies that there is no First Sentence nor Memorable Moment. Alas I handed the book to someone else without making a note of them. TT


A WINTER FLAME by MILLY JOHNSON.


Eve has never liked Christmas. So when her adored elderly aunt dies, the last thing she is expecting is to be left a theme park in her will. A theme park with a Christmas theme …


And that's not the only catch. Her aunt's will stipulates that Eve must run the park with a mysterious partner, the exotically named Jacques Glace. Who is this Jacques, and why did Aunt Evelyn name him in her will?

But Eve isn't going to back down from a challenge. She's determined to make a success of Winterworld, no matter what. Can she overcome her dislike of Christmas, and can Jacques melt her frozen heart at last?

  • Book 7 read for the 2018 Christmas Spirit Challenge; See what constitutes as my Wrap Post at the bottom  of my review.
MY THOUGHTS ... Its not often that I myself delving into the realm that is 'chic-lit' and it has to be said that when I do I NEED to feel the chemistry between the love interests and I'm afraid Eve and the mysterious Jacques just didn't do it for me ... in fact, taken individually, neither Eve nor Jacques 'did it for me'.

Other than that ...

I hold my hands up to loving the thought of a gloriously dotty great-aunt and a year round Christmas themed park in Yorkshire but even so a  story with not much to it though it did have a certain charm; overall I thought A Winter Flame an enjoyable enough festive romp, not something I'd probably have enjoyed nearly as much any other time of the year but still, a pleasant way to while away a few wintry hours.
