Winter Magic at Hollybrae Castle

A Scottish castle, a fake marriage… and one very real Christmas romance?

After a window display goes disastrously viral – thanks to a malfunctioning animatronic Santa and an unfortunate encounter with Paddington Bear – Lula Haines finds herself without a job just weeks before Christmas. So she jumps at the chance to decorate Hollybrae Castle in Scotland for the holidays.

There’s just one complication: her handsome new boss, Oliver Bracewell, needs a fake wife for the festive season. To secure a promotion that could save his family’s castle, Ollie has been pretending to be a married father-of-two to impress the family-focused firm where he works. Now his bosses are coming to stay at Hollybrae over Christmas… expecting to meet his non-existent wife and children.

At first, playing along is easy as Lula is swept up in the magic of turning Hollybrae into the perfect festive escape with Ollie. But as Christmas draws nearer and she and Ollie grow closer, Lula begins to wonder if Hollybrae could become more than a temporary escape… and if the man she’s only pretending to love might actually be the one she’s been waiting for all along.

With heaps of tartan, tinsel and Christmas magic, this uplifting romance is perfect for fans of Trisha Ashley, Heidi Swain, Cressida McLaughlin, Ellie Henderson or Jessica Redland!

My Review:

Winter Magic at Hollybrae Castle is a wonderful romance. I love the fake marriage trope. Set during Christmas, the story is magical, romantic, and festive. I loved watching Lula and Oliver navigate their fake marriage. The setting was beautifully described and the author set the scenes up so well. I love the multitude of emotions the author wove through the pages. There was laughter, tears, and love. 

The characters, setting, theme, and writing style had me hooked from the first page. This book is heartwarming and fun. Grab a blanket, your favorite warm beverage, and get ready to immerse yourself into Winter Magic at Hollybrae Castle.
