What a great writer Sarah Morgan is. I loved everything about this book, the characters, the beautiful description of the scenery and a good Christmas story to curl up with.

Katie is very protective of her little sister Rosie, Rosie and Dan haven't known each other long but plan a Chrostmas wedding, Mags and Nick have decided to divorce and Dans mum has had difficulty coming to terms with the death of her husband. Sprinkle some snow and a bit of Christmas magic and this has to be the Christmas book of the year. I enjoyed it from the first page to the last and was sorry when I reached the end.

Sarah Morgan returns with another beautifully crafted tale of romance set in the coldest season of the year. Katie is unhappy that her sister Rosie seems to be rushing into her marriage without thinking, and is worried that things will not go well. When the family are all invited to the Christmas wedding, Katie sees this as a chance to Put a stop to the ceremony. But she is hiding secrets of her own, and it takes several false starts before everybody comes clean, and makes a fresh new beginning.
As with all Sarah’s books, the characters come to life of the page, and you can really get into their psyche and understand what drives them. The usual romance is woven into the storylines, and altogether this is one of her finest books.
If you’re looking for something to curl up with, put the kettle on, get the chocolates out, and download the book or pick up your paperback!

A very sweet little novel which was slightly predictable but nonetheless an easy read.Certain warms the cockles of your heart as you read on through the pages.

As a great fan of Sarah Morgan, I expected a good read and this book didn’t disappoint. From the first page, I was gripped by the descriptive writing and story, which became completely absorbing as the story progressed.

Maggie is left on her own after her two daughters have grown up and left home. She has also split up with her husband Nick, having always been totally absorbed in her children, at the cost of her own potential career and marriage. When Rosie, her youngest daughter decides she is going to marry someone she hasn’t known long, Maggie is concerned that she is being too impulsive, and the story involves likeable, well drawn characters, the older daughter Katie, who is a doctor, and husband. All the characters have secrets which they are keeping from others in the family, which are emotively told as the story unfolds.

The book is set in the wonderful snow filled Aspen mountains as preparations get ready for the wedding, and decisions need to be made which could affect the family’s life in the future. A beautifully written snowy Christmas themed landscape, warm, emotive characters, passion and humour all combined, make an enjoyable read which I highly recommend.

I love a Christmas story and look forward to this time of year when festive novels begin to hit the shelves. I also know that I can rely on Sarah Morgan to provide her readers with a lovely Christmas tale in a stunning location. This latest book definitely falls into that category. It was one I literally couldn’t put down and, at the same time, felt sad when it was finished.

The setting for this story is the Colorado ski resort of Aspen, where the White family members are gathering for the Christmas Eve wedding of younger daughter Rosie to local man Dan. First to fly in from London are mum and dad Maggie and Nick. Maggie has many reasons for dreading this whole experience, ranging from a fear of flying to worry about a hastily arranged wedding and mostly keeping a secret from the rest of the family. Rosie’s older sister Katie, a stressed accident and emergency department doctor who has been having a particularly difficult time of late, arrives a day later; she also has misgivings about her sister’s whirlwind romance and is determined to stop her making a big mistake. However, best man Jordan keeps distracting her from her goal. Rosie herself has been experiencing doubts about her upcoming nuptials too. High in the beautiful snow covered Rockies staying in the luxurious and romantic Snowfall Lodge Resort, can the family relax and heal in time to enjoy Rosie and Dan’s big day?

This is another great story from Sarah Morgan, combining family dramas and romance with comic interludes, all in a wonderful setting. I loved the way in which the story was told, each of the three women in the White family taking turns at centre stage. Each of them had problems of their own but was willing to put them aside to support the others. I’m sure many readers could identify with lovely mum Maggie who is feeling a little adrift now that her girls have left home; having put her ambitions on hold to care for the family she now wants more. However, for me, her arrival at Denver airport was the funniest scene in the book; absolutely hilarious. Although the story is very much centred on these three women, the men play important roles as well; three men and three women, but will any of them be together at the end? This well written story kept me guessing. I became so absorbed in the lives of the characters that I didn’t want it to end. This book is one to curl up with in front of the fire and would make a great Christmas gift.

What a delicious early Christmas present this book was! It covers love in many forms and generations and all in the magical winter wonderful setting of Aspen , Colorado . It's Christmas, it's snowing and love is in the air...it has such a great storyline with engaging, lovable characters and left me wanting to start my Christmas wrapping! When I reached the last page and looked out of my window in rainy England it came as quite a shock, so absorbed had I been in this gorgeous book. More please!

This is the first book I have read of Sarah Morgan's. It was very easy to read and I read it in 2 days. I found it funny, romantic and it had me wanting to find out what happened next. I would really recommend this book if you want to loose yourself for a while.

I’m not a natural romance novel lover but this really got me in the warm and fuzzies.

It’s a very enjoyable book which is relatable and well written.

Read if you want a nice read with a good Christmas feel to feel good about.

Really wonderful christmas story. Full of charm, romance, great characters, and magic settings this book will get you in the mood to put your christmas tree up early, it did me anyway. Lovely story, i would really recommend it.

Just when I think I couldn’t love Sarah Morgan’s books any more, she writes another and I prove myself wrong! I really like that she has started to include some slightly older women in her novels and Maggie is so believable! There were times reading this book that I felt she had been sitting behind me in a cafe, listening to me pouring out my problems to my best friend and taking notes - it felt like she’d written my life (with a nicer husband!!)
Rosie and Katie, the daughters in the book were great too and this story was a fascinating reflection on how people take on roles in their family that they find hard to break out of. Everyone thinks they know how the others feel and they have stopped listening - so true!
One of my favourite books by my favourite author and as usual, I can’t wait for the next one...

Aspen is the perfect winter wonderland setting for Rosie’s whirlwind Christmas wedding, but as her family start to arrive doubts start to creep in.

Rosie’s parents, Nick and Maggie, are more loved up then they have ever been, but are they trying just a little too hard?

Older sister Katie, is determined to stop the wedding, convinced that Rosie is making a huge mistake. Can she keep a level head when hunky best man Jordan keep interfering with her plans?

Emotions run high as the big day draws closer. One way or the other this will be a Christmas the White family will never forget?

I always find it strange receiving ARCs of Christmas books when still enjoying the last flourishes of summer, but Sarah Morgan has a way of transporting the reader so easily to another place. Even though I was reading on my sun lounger I could embrace the wonderfully white world she has created.

I really liked the White family as a whole straight away, their traditional Christmas plans sounded like the kind everyone wishes they could have. That is until youngest daughter, Rosie, throws a spanner in the works with her impulsive wedding plans.

Nick and Maggie were by far my favourite characters, the elaborate charade they were living made for hilarious banter and had me laughing out loud. Unfortunately, I found Katie really difficult to like. Even though she was going through a tough time I found her attitude left me with little empathy for her situation. Even towards the end of the story I still hadn’t warmed to her and I did find myself skim reading her parts, which was a shame as I was really fond of Jordan, who mostly interacted with her.

As usual with Morgan’s books I was instantly wrapped up in the romantic, yet relatable, plot lines. Always delivering exactly what the reader wants from this genre. Long time fans will love this book, and if you haven’t read anything by this author before - what are you waiting for?

This is a lovely holiday read that is aimed at different generations. there is young romance, second chances, and celebrations between 2 families. The wedding in the title takes place in Colorado on Christmas Eve and of course, the setting and the descriptions are all very romantic.

It's great to read different people's perspectives on the wedding and without spoiling it I would recommend it as an escapist read, and something to read in preparation for the festivities.

Told in the third person from the individual viewpoints of mother Maggie, and daughters Rosie and Katie White, this is a truly delightful Christmas romance.

The White family head out to Aspen to see their youngest daughter, Rosie, marry a man, Dan, they've never met, and whom Rosie has known for only a few months. Dan's widowed mother Catherine is overjoyed at the prospect of their marriage and, as a wedding planner, organises a Christmas Eve wedding for the couple.

Maggie worries that Rosie is rushing into marriage, despite having done the same thing herself with the girls' father, Nick. Maggie and Nick are currently separated, having drifted apart over the years. They haven't told the girls, and agree that a wedding is not the right time to tell them they are divorcing. Instead, they will pretend to be happily married until after the wedding.

Katie is determined that Rosie should not marry Dan. Rosie has a history of changing her mind, falling in and out of love, and Katie believes this time is no different. She flies out to Aspen to stop the wedding, whilst hiding her own secret trauma, and unsure of her future as a doctor.

This is a superb read which ticked all the boxes for me. The characters are likeably flawed, and have issues to overcome in this happy-ending Christmas story. I thought A Wedding in December was well-written, and it had me hooked within the first few pages. It was very descriptive, without being overdone, and filled me with wonderful images of the snow-bedecked resort in Aspen, and the White's country cottage in Oxford. Another winner for Ms Morgan.

Thank you to the author for the arc. I loved this book!
A family that have grown up together and started their own lives, two parents who have grown apart, an older sister who is closed off to love and a younger sister who rushes into things.
This book made me feel warm all over.
I liked how you had the perspective from the different characters in the book and how the story weaved and intertwined with each other.
An easy read that gave me a warm glow just like a roaring fire on a winter's day!

Another five star read from Morgan because yet again she has delivered a warm hearted, romantic, emotional read. How she manages to write so prolificly and consistently is a mystery, but as a huge fan of her books, I'm not complaining!

A Wedding in December is another multi view point, multi generational novel, looking at family, roles, expectations and the secrets we keep from those we love best. When Rosie phones her family to let them know she's engaged and getting married in just a few weeks in Aspen Colerado her mother, Maggie and sister Katie are not so much over joyed as overwhelmed with dismay. Rosie is ony 22, the baby of the family, famously impulsive and has always lived with dehabilitating asthma. To have her studying on the other side of the world is bad enough, but potentially living there? To say nothing of how can a girl who changes her mind every two hours make a decision on something as big as marriage in just a few months? Katie, battling with burn out as an A&E doctor is suspicious of any seemingly perfect whirlwind relationship, she knows all to well how they can turn out, and she's also trying to keep her disillusion with her careers and PTSD after a workplace incident hidden from her family. Meanwhile mother Maggie has yet to tell her daughters that she and their father have split up, and after a lifetime of devoting herself to her family, her future seems bleak instead. It doesn't help that Rosie's future mother in law has the wedding well in hand, relegating Maggie to guest.

The family head to Colarado bursting with secrets and stress. Maggie and her separated husband, Nick, have decided not to tell the girls about the separation until after the wedding, only to find their stay treated as a second honeymoon and full of romantic surprises. Meanwhile Katie clashes with Best Man Jordan who is all too aware that her interest in her future brother in law isn't wholly positive and that she's out to stop the wedding if she can. Meanwhile Rosie is wondering if she is rushing into it, but everytime she tries to voice her doubts her fiance doesn't listen. Is she making a huge mistake or should she look at her parents, still happy together after their whirlwind courtship and draw inspiration from them?

A Wedding in December is very very funny, romantic and poignant and if you don't end up googling 'tree top hotels in Aspen' after reading it then you are a stronger person than me. It's chock full of Christmassy goodness from sleigh rides to snowball fights to romantic mountain top restaurants and thr perfect read for an evening (or afterrnoon) tucked by the fire.

Morgan could read a shopping list and I’d be first in the queue! I’ve read all her books and this lives up to her previous tomes. A rushed wedding in snow-covered Aspen. A family at war with itself. A perfect read.

A lovely festive heart warming read. I’d highly recommend this book. Amazing characters, lovely story. A must read over the festive season.

Absolutely gorgeous. Morgan has done it again with this beautiful novel. I fell in love with the characters right from the word go and enjoyed every second of this book. I felt thoroughly transported into the snowy hills of Aspen, Colorado at Christmas time, with wedding bells and the cosy atmosphere of log cabins and freshly lit fires. It’s the perfect book to snuggle up with in the winter and dive into on a rainy day. The characters are so relatable with their family and individual life dramas and it’s something that probably everyone has been through or felt in their life. Words can’t express how much I love reading Morgan’s novels, and will continue to love them for a long time.

Thank you NetGalley and HQ Publishing for the ARC!

When Rosie contacts her family to say she is getting married in less than a month in Aspen her family think it’s too soon as she has only known her fiancé a couple of months. Will the wedding go ahead and will the family have the Christmas they deserve in Aspen.

A charming festive read, guaranteed to warm the cockles of your heart.

A Wedding in December follows the story of the White family and daughter Rosie’s whirlwind Christmas wedding in Colorado. She’s having second thoughts, her parents are secretly discussing divorce and her sister Katie has her own issues. Add in some hunky Americans, plenty of snow and you’ve got a fantastic Christmas read.
