And when she receives an accidental text from a mystery man, could it be the new start she needs? Or someone she really shouldn't be falling for?

But when her relatives descend on the old manor house, Lottie gets more than she bargained for. Between cooking Christmas dinner for twelve and keeping Dave the dog out of mischief (and away from a very disdainful cat), she has plenty on her plate. And then her first love shows up - nine years after he walked out of her life. Can Lottie make their last family Christmas one to remember... for the right reasons?

It Started at Sunset Cottage

«Un libro tenero che scalda il cuore.» The Sun «Ti farà spuntare un sorriso sul viso.» Hazel Prior Tom ha solo sedici anni ma ha già imparato che la vita può essere crudele e che è più facile evitare i problemi se si riesce a passare inosservati. Ma essere invisibili è un bel problema quando si vuole far colpo sulla ragazza più carina della scuola: alla ricerca disperata di una passione comune con la bella Farah, Tom si rifugia nella piccola biblioteca del paese in cui vive. È proprio nascondendosi tra i polverosi scaffali, in compagnia di una borsa piena di romanzi d’amore, che attira l’attenzione di Maggie, una vedova settantenne che trascorre i suoi pomeriggi immersa nelle letture più disparate. L’incontro casuale tra due mondi apparentemente molto lontani, quello di un timido adolescente e di una donna il cui passato nasconde un segreto, sarà l’inizio di un’amicizia in grado di cambiare il corso delle loro vite. E, quando la minaccia della chiusura della biblioteca si farà concreta, i due uniranno le loro forze per dimostrare a tutti che quel luogo speciale è il cuore della loro comunità.
