Isaac proves to be a gem of a man when he steps in to help in situations others would run from. They are attracted to each other, but Isaac has a rule to not date co-workers. Both are dealing with issues and at a cross road of their lives. Both of them are not lifelong members of the community, but they find it their home for the moment. Lily finds herself working part-time/temporarily for a pub with a temporary boss, Isaac. There are several other themes running throughout. Once found, she wrestles with the action of telling them who she is, or keeping it to herself. It becomes known that was not the case and Lily then searched for two brothers that she did not know of. Lily was told that she was the result of a one-night stand. They have always known that Zinnia’s father was an anonymous donor at a sperm bank. Lily and her sister Zinnia were raised in a non-conventional family by two mums. The town of Middledip is always nice to return to and meet more of its villagers. Her characters are so well developed, they became friends and I miss them, now that I am finished reading. Sue Moorcroft has done it again! She has created a world that seems to exist in real life. Thank you to Avon on Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily. This easily stands alone with plenty of brand new characters to get to know, and I loved all the various threads of story involved.īuy it now. As I have been trying to say, I loved every single moment of this book, it is Sue Moorcroft at her best, its warm and cosy, the whole of the Switzerland section was fabulous, and its always great to be back in Middledip. And Isaac certainly has a tough time of it when his ex, Hayley becomes rather prominent, but not in the way you may be thinking. Well there were some darker times as you get to grips with just why Lily is in Middledip to start with, and what her decision is doing to her family. plenty of delicious food mentions, between the pub that Lily and Isaac are working in to the delights in Switzerland. the pace doesn't let up in this book, there are so many different storylines in play, romantic tensions, and there is the non stop will Lily or won't Lily reveal her true identity to her half brothers. Not to mention that Let It Snow was one of the more popular tunes of the group, and thus I had it running in my head a lot! Doggo who had to be one of my favourite characters, loved chasing around in the snow, and I enjoyed the teenagers who couldn't resist taking part in snow ball fights. what an apt title for a book that certainly does feature a large amount of snow. the Christmas markets, the singing that the Middletones did, the cuckoo clocks, all the snow, and getting to know a couple of very key people out there. not true at all for Lily and the rest of the Middletones, where we get to see their entire trip to Switzerland which was my favourite part of the book. so is everything about this book, from the picturesque setting, to the family dynamics, the friendships, the potential romance, the snow, and just the way it all made me feel, utterly delightful. You can do no better than curling up with a fabulous festive Sue Moorcroft book, and Let It Snow is just that. With creative writing, well developed characters and a road trip through Europe, Moorcroft has, once again, created people and places that are unforgettable. While there is a romance, of course, the romance isn't the primary focus of the book - Lily's journey of discovery, the tangled family webs that go with blended families and the "fall out" from finding siblings no one knew of until adulthood. Secondary story lines often become my favorite parts of her stories and this one is no different. There always IS more with a Moorcroft book which is why I adore her so very much. Now Lily is determined to find her father on a journey that will take her to our favorite Moorcroft town, Middledip, and on a road trip to Switzerland for a holiday market and more. Told that her birth father was a one night stand, Lily is shocked to discover he actually was married at the time and more than just a fling her mother had one night. She has two loving moms and a sister, Zinnia who have been her world. Published earlier this year and set during the holidays, now is the perfect time to read this delightful tale.įor Lily, family is everything. While I'm waiting for the snow that is forecast for later in the week, I've been re-reading Let It Snow by one of my very favorite authors, Sue Moorcroft.
