About this ebook

'Heart-warming and full of hope. I loved it' HEIDI SWAIN, Sunday Times bestselling author

'The most beautiful, heart-warming story. Gorgeously cosy, uplifting . . . utterly lovely book' HOLLY MARTIN, bestselling author of Christmas at Mistletoe Cove

Escape to the mountains and fall in love this Christmas...


Alice Bright has a great life. She has a job she adores, a devoted family and friends she'd lay down her life for. But when tragedy strikes, she finds her whole world turned upside down.

Enter, Bear, a fluffy, lovable - and rapidly growing! - puppy searching for a home. Bear may be exactly what Alice needs to rekindle her spark, but a London flat is no place for a mountain dog, and soon Alice and Bear find themselves on a journey to the snow-topped mountains of Switzerland in search of a new beginning.

Amidst the warming log fires, cosy cafes and stunning views, Alice finds her heart slowly beginning to heal. But will new friends and a charming next door neighbour be enough to help Alice fall in love with life once more?

Filled with winter markets, falling snow and heart-warming seasonal romance, this is the perfect festive treat for fans of Sarah Morgan and Heidi Swain.

'Dogs + snow + romance = Sunday afternoon bliss!' Fabulous

'A warm, beautiful read full of hope and friendship - of both the two-legged and the four-legged kind' Laura Bambrey, author of The Beginners Guide to Loneliness

An enjoyable book set in London and snowy Switzerland with a beautiful Bernese puppy/dog. The story wasn't quite what I expected from the cover, to start with anyway. Although I'd read the blurb I'd expected a quite light-hearted Christmas story, with a slightly sad part at the beginning. But it was a quite a bit sadder at the beginning than I'd expected, and I did find the first part of the story quite hard going. But once we'd moved onto the part where Alice travels to Switzerland with Bear the story just got better and better as it went on. The town of Murren in Switzerland sounded an idyllic winter wonderland, with snow, little cafes, snowboarding, mountain rescues, cable cars, beautiful views, and wonderful next-door neighbours for Alice and Bear, leading to romance and healing for Alice. There are some really lovely characters involved in both London and Switzerland, but especially Switzerland. It seems Isla Gordon is also Lisa Dickenson, but I'm not sure why she's changed her name for this book as it's not a major genre change from her previous books. I ended up really enjoying this book after my initial doubt, and it definitely got me in the Christmas spirit!
