Overview
She can't abide Christmas. He's not sure what it's all about. Together they're in for a festive surprise. Ambitious software developer Holly may have a festive name but the connection ends there. She despises the holiday season and decides to flee to the remote island of Mull in a bid to escape from it. Syrian refugee Farid has made a new home in Scotland but he's lonely. Understanding Nessie and Irn Bru is one thing, but when glittery reindeer and tinsel hit the shelves, he's completely bemused. Determined to understand a new culture, he asks his new neighbour to educate him on all things Christmas. When Holly reluctantly agrees, he realises there's more to her hatred of mince pies and mulled wine than meets the eye. Farid makes it his mission to inject some joy into Hollys' life but falling for her is an unexpected gift that was never on his list. As their attraction sparkles, can Christmas work its magic on Holly and Farid, or will their spark fizzle out with the end of December?

Reviews
★★★★★ OMG! This book is so, so, so good. Margaret is a phenomenal writer. It's just perfect, all of it. I absolutely love Farid. He's gorgeous inside and out. I want to marry him! What an incredible read. - Evie Alexander author ★★★★★ The chemistry between Holly and Farid is OFF THE SCALE! These two are mad about each other almost from the start but is it only for Christmas? You won't be able to stop thinking about them and praying they will stick together! Iona (advance reader) ★★★★★ This was a brilliant Christmas story with a twist! Farid comes from Syria where Christmas isn't a thing like it is here and the people there who do celebrate it have their own traditions. Holly is a Christmas-phobe. But OMG when the two of them start bantering about festive traditions, it's just hilarious. And thought-provoking too... I mean, where do some of these traditions come from? I adored this story from start to finish. (advance reader) ★★★★★ Quite simply a perfect Christmas read. I fell so hard for Holly and Farid and was desperate for them to get their happy ever after. (advance reader) ★★★★★ Farid is courageous, caring and sexy - what's not to love? Holly is an ambitious career woman who refuses to admit she's lonely. Farid draws out the best in her and she realises there's more to life than work. A stunning love story. (advance reader)
