Second chances can be a gift when you’re brave enough to risk your heart … gripping, emotional and uplifting, the unmissable small-town festive romance from the award-winning author of Second Chance Love in Point Perry.
Perfect for lovers of Virgin River and readers who enjoy Elsie Silver, Laura Pavlov and Lucy Score.
Scarlett Reynold’s life in the city may be in tatters, but that doesn’t mean anyone needs to know. Especially when Christmas is her favourite time of year and it’s her first visit home to the small town of Point Perry in forever.
Ryan Black would recognise Scarlett anywhere, although apparently, she doesn’t remember him or their teenage summer romance. He��s fine with that because he hates Christmas and anyone who loves it so much isn’t meant for him.
But then Scarlett and Ryan are thrown together amidst preparations for the town’s annual Christmas festivities. The longer Scarlett is in town, the more reasons she’s finding to stay, and the harder it is for Ryan to deny their growing attraction.
When admitting your feelings means facing past pains, sometimes even love can’t overcome doubt and fear. But never underestimate the power of a little Christmas magic …
Trigger warning: panic attack (on page), near drowning (on page), workplace bullying (off page), rejected by parents,
abuse, abandonment (of page).
Author's note:
Light Up My Heart: A Point Perry Christmas is a feel-good, small-town, opposites-attract romance written in Australian
English. So, depending on where you’re reading my book, you might find an 's' instead of a 'z' or some other spelling variation. There is also the use of Australian slang, such as ‘ambo’ for an ambulance, and Aussie-specific words like ‘road train’ for long trucks and ‘petrol bowser’, which are gas pumps in America.
Genre: Romance
