Congratulations to Sue Moorcroft for the publication of her 25th novel - what an incredible achievment. You can find all the details of her other books on the graphic.
So back we go to the Isle of Skye, and this time we travel along with Essie, one of the Wynter sisters. We met Thea in book 1, but not to worry if you haven’t read this yet. A Skye Full of Stars can absolutely be read as a standalone.
I loved Essie’s story, and, as with Thea’s, things unfold which, hopefully, will enrich her life, but perhaps with just a little bit of uncertainty along the way. I learnt a little about Swedish Christmas traditions and it’s interesting to discover how different countries celebrate different holidays. Most have one thing in common - food - lots and lots of delicious food!
The kids are cute, Daisy is adorable - as always - and the Skye landscape, especially in the snow, is incredible. I’ve never ventured that far north, but hopefully, someday, I’ll get the opportunity to visit Skye.
Thank you to NetGalley, Avon Books and Rachel's Random Resources for the opportunity to read and review A Skye Full of Stars by Sue Moorcroft.
About the Book
Under the winter stars, anything is possible…
Ezzie Wynter can’t wait for Christmas on the beautiful Isle of Skye. Her island home sparkles at this time of year thanks to the snow-capped mountains and frosty winter walks, topped off with family gatherings with those she loves the most.
But her peaceful Christmas idyll is upended when she hears that the Larson family – the owners of Rothach Hall – are flying in from Sweden for the festivities. As Manager of their grand Scottish manor house, Ezzie suddenly has decorations to hang, food to source and itineraries to organise.
Life only becomes more difficult when Mats Larson turns up. The owners’ handsome, self-assured son is used to doing things his own way – and he is only another headache to add to her overflowing list.
Yet when unexpected visitors arrive looking for Ezzie, nothing else matters as she is left questioning everything she ever knew about herself. But amidst the Christmas chaos, she might also discover that, when all is lost, it’s sometimes those we least expect who come to our aid…
