Synopsis
Amid the salt marshes and rolling fields of Periwinkle Bay, Magda Conway is enjoying her retirement in ivy-clad Mistletoe Cottage. Yet with three weeks to go until Christmas, as the fairy lights twinkle and the trees go up around the village, her peace is disrupted when she’s left in sole charge of her two mischievous grandchildren. Before long, she’s at her wit’s end – but high on a kitchen shelf lies her mother’s handwritten recipe book. And as she turns to it for advice, she finds more than just recipes between its tattered covers: there’s a pinch of magic too, and maybe even a sprinkling of love . . .
My Review
This was a great Christmas story that I really enjoyed reading. I finished it in one day. It flowed nicely and was well wrote. I liked that the storyline included lots of baking. I loved the relationship between magdalena and Flick. I enjoyed that the story involved lots of family and friends working together to overcome some issues. The characters were very likeable and realistic. I definitely became emotionally invested in the story. I especially loved the ending it definitely put a smile on my face. I actually rated this book 3.5 stars rounded up as it was so close to getting that 4th star. It definitely worth a read and I recommend reading it if you love stories of friendship with plenty of baKed goods.
Many thanks to the author and publishers for creating this wonderful story. It also contains some of the recipes mentioned in the book. I will definitely be looking out for more books by this great author.
