Synopsis

Carrington’s Department Store – where life is sweeter… ‘Adorable, comical and magical, this is a festive delight’ Closer ‘We love it!’ Now Georgie Hart loves Christmas time at Carrington’s Department store. Running the luxury handbag department, Georgie adores helping customers in the hunt for the perfect gift for the perfect someone. And this year is no exception – now she has the hunky Tom, Mr Carrington himself, to spend the special day with. But when Tom springs a surprise, Georgie’s plans are thrown into chaos. Carrington’s is getting a fresh lease of life in a hot new reality TV show, featuring formidable retail guru, Kelly Cooper. As the first show airs, Georgie is shown in a far from flattering light. Worse is to come when Kelly’s vile daughter appears to get her claws into Tom. Georgie fears this will be the worst Christmas ever, but Santa still has a little surprise for her stocking this year – she’ll just have to wait until Christmas to find out…

Goodreads review by Melissa (Semi-hiatus for Work) on August 27, 2020

The second book in Brown’s Carrington series is sweet at times, yet annoying at others. The interplay between characters is humorous and often meaningful. However, the misunderstandings and poor communication get so frustrating it might cause readers much stress while waiting to see if poor Georgie......more
