TIS THE SEASON
It's been a while since Faith Bleasdale has released anything new. But this Christmas she is publishing a festive novella called Lonely This Christmas. The summary says: "Emily Smith has always loved Christmas and now, age thirty, she is hosting Christmas for the first time and is determined that everything will be just perfect. Her fiance, Toby Neill, plans to announce their wedding plans to his whole family over Christmas dinner. But work commitments have taken Toby to New York, and he won't be back until two days before the big day. So, as well as overseeing work on their new house and juggling a full-time PR job, Emily has to sort out Christmas on her own. At the local tree farm she meets Will, who shares her passion for the festive season. He becomes someone to confide in as she becomes increasingly lonely while Toby is away. Can Emily create the perfect Christmas? Will Toby be back in time to share it with her?"
