READERS LOVE LINDSEY KELK:

'Absolutely hilarious, engaging and fun'

'A festive romance with a twist . . . with plenty of funny moments and a whole load of emotion'

'The perfect antidote to these dark evenings, full of warmth, humour, deep insights and feel-good prose'

'Warm-hearted, funny and so enjoyable'

Newly single lawyer Gwen Baker is hoping that a family Christmas - countryside, a mountain of food and festive films -

will salve the sting of her career hanging by a thread and her heart being trampled on. Because everyone else has their life sorted: even Dev, her boy-next-door crush, is now a tall, dark and handsome stranger with a fiancee. She can't help wishing her future was clearer.

Then Gwen wakes up to discover it's Christmas day all over again. Like Groundhog Day but with turkey. And family arguments. On repeat.

As she figures out how to escape her own particular Christmas hell, Dev is the one bright spot. He might be all grown-up but underneath he's just as kind and funny as she remembers.

Maybe, just maybe, her heart can be mended after all.

But how do you fall in love with someone who can't remember you from one day to the next?
