Poppy’s Christmas Wishes
'A heartwarming read, full of friendship and fun' ~ Heidi Swain
About the Book:
What would you wish for if you were granted three wishes?
For the first time she can remember, Poppy is dreading Christmas. Unceremoniously dumped by her boyfriend after moving across the country for him, there's nothing cheery about the festive season this year.
Dragged to a Christmas ball by best friend Layla, Poppy meets gorgeous actor Gabe, who stars as a genie in a play. When he asks her what three wishes she would make, she realises it's quite simple: love, a job she's happy in and, just once in her life, to do something extraordinary.
Gabe and Poppy make a pact to help each other make their dreams come true. As they tick off their wishes, their friendship blossoms... But, as they discover, sometimes, what you want for Christmas isn't necessarily what you need...
A delicious romance to snuggle up with this festive season from the author of Wedding Bells at the Signal Box Café and The Cosy Little Cupcake Van.
My Review:
Poppy's Christmas Wishes is a sweet holiday romance. Sure, getting dumped by your boyfriend before Christmas isn't all that sweet. Even though she's dreading the holiday season, Poppy manages to bounce back and finds friendship amidst the sadness.
When Poppy's introduced to Gabe, they make a pact to fulfill three wishes and soon find something more than friendship.
I enjoyed watching Poppy traverse this new chapter in her life. She may have still been caught up in her ex, but that's expected. Her life was shaken up and the plans she thought were being made, crumbled down around her feet. It takes time to bounce back. The book highlights how important love and friendship is in any platonic or romantic relationship.
This is my first experience with Annette Hannah and I'm happy to add her books to my TRB list.
I was provided a copy of this book to read.
