The Secret Holiday Kiss

One magical kiss was only the beginning… but can it lead Daisy to her happy ever after?

‘Cressida's characters are wonderful!' Sarah Morgan

Named Woman & Home’s Festive Romance Bookclub Pick and Woman’s Weekly Festive Pick!

In a seaside village, where the winter sunset meets the sea, Daisy is coming home …

When her perfect life falls apart, Daisy returns to Mistingham, determined it's a temporary stop until she can find her feet again.

She hasn't counted on the community’s irresistible (aka infuriating) festive spirit. Or on Avery, building a grand house near the village green – his optimism and easy smile are proving equally hard to resist.

As Mistingham works its magic, Daisy wonders if her heart has known where home is all along.
