Today is my stop in the fantastic Blog Tour for The Winter Garden, the sparkling new Christmas novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author Heidi Swain. And I am sharing my thoughts on this festive read here!
Title: The Winter Garden (Nightingale Square #3)
Author: Heidi Swain
Published: October 4th 2020 by Simon & Schuster
The Winter Garden is the perfect read this Christmas, promising snowfall, warm fires and breath-taking seasonal romance. Perfect for fans of Carole Matthews, Cathy Bramley and Sarah Morgan.
Review: After reading and loving Sunshine and Sweetpeas at Nightingale Square and Poppy’s Recipe for Life, I was really looking forward to going back to Nightingale Square, especially with a festive story, as I was sure that this lovely place would be perfect for a cosy and very special Christmas. And I was not wrong at all!
This time we discover Freya’s story, who after losing her close friend and employer is not sure what to do next in her life. A bit by chance and a bit by magic, she ends up being employed as the gardener in Prosperous Place. The job comes with a place to live at the Square too so she soon finds herself involved in all the activitats organised by the lovely community.
Once again, I really enjoyed reading about the sense of community in the square and how they all come together to make their shared space a better place, where everyone is welcomed. Freya couldn't have landed at a better place and it was a great pleasure to get to catch up with this bunch of lovely people. I wish Prosperous Place was real and I could attend some of the sessions they organise for their Winterfest, they sounded so original and fun!
Also a big thumps up from me for the love story! Great chemistry between the characters and perfect amount of will-they or will-they-not. I finished this book with a huge smile in my face!
Rating: 5 stars
I would like to thank the publisher for sending me a copy of this book. This is my honest opinion.
