Read a sample Read a sample
A deliciously seasonal and heart-warming tale from the Sunday Times bestseller In the pretty Lancashire village of Middlemoss, Lizzy is on the verge of leaving her serially unfaithful husband, Tom, when tragedy strikes. Good job she has welcome distractions in the form of her Christmas Pudding Circle, a circle of friends swapping seasonal recipes, and a simmering rivalry with cookery writer Nick Pharamond – a rivalry set to come to boiling point after he snatched the Best Mince Pie prize away from her at the village show. Meanwhile, the whole village is gearing up for the annual Mystery Play which takes place on Boxing Day. But who will play Adam to Lizzy's Eve? Could it be the handsome and charismatic soap actor Ritch Rainford, or could someone closer to home win her heart? Whatever happens, it will certainly be a hard act to follow next year! Previously published as Sweet Nothings, but now with fabulous new extra material. Readers adore The Magic of Christmas 'Trisha Ashley's characters appear as real people that you would love to get to know with heroines that known their own mind ... a warm and cosy romance that is perfect for cold, wet and windy days curled up in front of the fire.' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Trisha writes beautifully and has a strong comic streak. Her heroine was feisty and all her characters interesting. Totally recommend!' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Full of Trisha Ashley's warm humour and trademark wit ... ideal for fireside reading on cold winter evenings with a mince pie beside you.' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'I enjoy all of Trisha Ashley's books, but this is one of my absolute favourites. I return to it again and again when I need a bit of positive escapism!' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Trisha Ashley is a brilliant writer that makes her characters spring to life. This cleverly written story has romance, mystery, self sufficiency, recipes and the magic of Christmas all rolled into one! Cannot recommend enough.' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Wonderfully written as always. Lots of twists and turns with fantastic characters who come to life as you read.' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'The characters are believable and endearing, with the bonus of being down to earth enough to identify with.' Reader Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
