ABOUT THE BOOK Put your feet up and tuck into the mince pies, because you won’t have to lift a finger to enjoy this Christmas! Too bad the same can’t be said for single mother and extremely undomestic goddess, Lottie. When her beloved Aunt Kate ends up in hospital just before Christmas, Lottie and her seven-year-old daughter rush to rural Wales to take over her B&B. A picky hotel reviewer and his mad family are coming to stay, and without the rating only he can give them, Aunt Kate will lose her livelihood. But Lottie can barely run her own life, let alone a hotel. How will she manage to turn the falling-down guesthouse into the luxurious wonderland the reviewer expects? And could the mysterious taxi driver, Danny, who agrees to help her, turn out to be the real gift this season? As the snow sparkles on the trees and hot chocolate steams in your hand, snuggle into the delicious magic of Christmas at the Falling-Down Guesthouse. *THIS NOVELLA WAS FIRST PUBLISHED AS THE RELUCTANT ELF BY MICHELE GORMAN* MY REVIEW CHRISTMAS AT THE FALLING-DOWN GUESTHOUSE by Lilly Bartlett was just what I needed when I curled up on the couch on Friday night in need of something festive and charming to make me smile. A delightful story, this short read is sure to put you in the Christmas spirit and warm you from the inside out. Lottie Crisp understands grief ever since she lost both of her parents in a tragic accident. But she always had her beautiful little girl Mabel, and her Aunt Kate there to make her smile and get her through the tough times. So when Lottie gets a phone call informing her that her beloved Aunt is in hospital, Lottie and Mabel head down to Wales for Christmas to do what they can to help Aunt Kate get better and keep her quaint B&B in business, as it is due to get a very important guest. But the guesthouse is nothing like Lottie expected and it looks like they might just need a miracle to make it through this Christmas intact ... With plenty of funny moments and poignant scenes, CHRISTMAS AT THE FALLING-DOWN GUESTHOUSE by Lilly Bartlett is the perfect feel-good story to get you in the mood for Winter. The characters are refreshing and realistic, and I especially loved Mabel who was never afraid to call things exactly as she saw them! And as for the motley crew of guests that arrived - absolutely hilarious!! CHRISTMAS AT THE FALLING-DOWN GUESTHOUSE by Lilly Bartlett is everything I wanted and more and I highly recommend it.
