Snowy Surprises in the Highlands


About the Book:

Magic happens when you least expect it…

Bella Douglas is living her dream life on the Isle of Skye but misses her friends at Drumblair Castle. She has the love of her life by her side, Granny Isla just up the road and has landed a big job to renovate the interior of a gorgeous Victorian hotel for an American client. What could possibly go wrong?

When Bella's new client sends their son to project manage the hotel renovation, things take an unexpected turn for the worse. Ex-model Carlton Somers has set his sights on Bella and doesn’t seem to understand the word ‘no’. But her relationship with Harris is rock solid; nothing can break that foundation … can it?

Meanwhile Granny Isla’s ‘friendship’ with her neighbour Tam Guthrie is going from strength to strength but when drama hits Pabay View Residential Home Bella’s life is quickly sent into a tailspin.

What will it take to get her life back on track?

And can she ever find time to focus on her own happiness and future?

My Review:

Snowy Surprises in the Highlands is a charming story taking place on the Isle of Skye. Bella has a lot going on in her life. The author takes Bella through some heavy situations. The story ebbs and flows between heartwarming and heartbreaking. There is chaos that has Bella questioning the current renovation she is overseeing, navigating her relationship with Harris after a blast from his past returns, and dealing with the revelation of secrets and antics of family members.

I really enjoy the author's writing style and how everything came together by the end of the story. The synopsis pulled me into the story from the beginning and the characters, events, and themes kept thoroughly engaged. The characters are well-written, 3-dimensional, and complex. The author wove a masterpiece together, filled with romance, love, anxious moments, tenderness, frustration, and disbelief. I was captivated by this wonderful story.
