Christmas Lights and Snowball Fights by Beth Rain

Caro Jenkins is finally making her escape for Christmas. It has been a sucky, sucky year…
She got dumped…
She’s still stuck selling over-priced clothes to idiots…
and, of course, she had to work on Christmas Eve eve. Her birthday.
But now she’s on her way to the cosy oasis that is her parents’ house – ready to slip into her festive PJs, turn her back on the year and hibernate until New Year arrives.
One ill-advised moment of weakness where she actually listens to her Sat-Nav and disaster strikes.
Sam Wills is determined to bury his head in the sand until Christmas is all over. It has been a crappy, crappy year…
He’s all alone…
The well-meaning villagers of Little Bamton are driving him potty…
and, of course, Christmas was always his wife’s favourite time of year.
But now he’s on his way down to the village pub for one last appearance before hiding-out in his cabin until the New Year. Or, that was the plan until he spotted the ancient, red Nissan Micra on its side in the ditch.
Will the magic of Little Bamton be enough to save Caro and Sam this Christmas or is the festive season about the be the biggest baubles-up of the year so far?
