Unwrap this gorgeous gift of a book for an escape to the snow-peaked caps of the Scottish Highlands and a romance that will melt your heart…
Izzy McBride had never in a million years expected to inherit an actual castle from her great uncle Bill but here she was, in the run up to Christmas, Monarch of her own Glen – a very rundown glen in need of a lot of TLC if her dream of turning it into a boutique bed and breakfast was to come true.
But when Izzy’s eccentric mother rents a room to enigmatic thriller author Ross Adair and the Scottish snow starts to settle like the frosting on a Christmas cake, it’s a race to get the castle ready before they’re all snowed in for the holidays.

A dream castle in Scotland
In this the latest in the Romantic Escapes the story centres around Izzy, who has inherited a castle in Scotland from her Great Uncle. She moves into it with her mother Xanthe, who is eccentric to say the least, with the intention of turning it into a boutique hotel.As with other books in this series the author manages to bring the location to life for me and the food sounded absolutely delicious. It did make the work involved in trying to renovate an old property very realistic, with the amount of work and money required enough to make anyone turn pale. Izzy herself sounds very warm and welcoming, her mother tiring and Ross, the surprise lodger, grumpy.There seems to be some very good Christmas themed books this year and this is a great example of one with its warm theme and a mixture of romance, humour, mayhem and a touch of mystery. Definitely highly recommended and I’m looking forward to reading the next one in the series, of which there is a taster at the end of this book.I received an advance copy of this book from the publisher through Netgalley, however this did not influence my review of the book and I subsequently purchased it upon release.

Beautiful
My Review: What an absolutley heart warming story, I still feel all warm inside.I mean the fact Izzy inherits a beautiful castle in Scotland and returns from an intense cooking course in Ireland only to find her mother or Xanthe to everyone, had rented out a room for 3 months to a teacher called Ross who is also an author for an amazing sum of money that will help her redecorate the castle in time for Christmas.Did you know that Wild Camping was a thing in Scotland? I didn’t. There are all sorts of amazing visitors to the castle that make it all the more specialThe local dancing, and all the beautiful Scotish traditions are amazing. It really makes me want to travel there for Christmas and do a Mary Poppins and jump into the scene. There is so much love building slowly.The weather is also so very typical Scottish and wintery.You cant help but fall in love with Izzy and all the characters. To find out more please read the blurb and read the book. It’s already reached the dizzy hights of number one on the Apple charts on release day. I mean how many people get offered a huge sum of money by a rich man who wants his Christmas at the castle? I love the whole book from start to finsh.

Loved it
This is a delightful read. Fast paced, credible tale of an inheritance, an overwhelming mother, a house guest (or rather Castle guest) who prefers to stay in his room and a host of other characters who come together to spend Christmas in a Castle. All manner of treasures unfold. Loved it.

Lovely story!
I have only just discovered Julie Caplin books and have finally read them all. They are all a great read. Where they are set in locations I have visited I have found them to be authentic and relatable.This recent publication did not disappoint. Yes it’s romantic and it has some wonderful characters.I would certainly recommend it if you are a lover of romance. Brilliant descriptions of cold weather and remote locations. Lovely twists in the tale too boot!Great author in my opinion.

Scotland at Christmas, what’s not to like? Bonnie lasses and brawny lads. A castle. Crazy family members and unexpected friends. Delicious food, drinks, decorations and a treasure hunt! Add in a few mishaps, secrets, some mystery, a little romance and you have a lovely Christmas book. It’s a pleasurable read this time of year when life is chaotic and you just want a little peace, quiet and some good old fashioned fun!!
