A poignant story of friendship and grief, this story opens with two women, Celeste and Hannah celebrating their long friendship together at New Year.. But tragedy strikes and Celeste is left to face life alone - a life that no longer fulfills her. Months and another New Year pass before Cerleste finally sets out to fulfil Hannah's sadly abandoned New Year's resolutions - anything from rock climbing to Ceilidh dancing. Will this help her rediscover her joy in life and finally look to the future?
I loved this story! It spoke so much to me of the importance of friendship, which was explored not just through Hannah and Celeste's relationship, but through their wider circle of friends, who all pulled together around Hannah's heartbroken fiance, Vik. The characters are empathetic and warm, and the plot moves along at a perfect pace. The subplot of Vik's restoration of the old house he's inherited adds an extra dimension of charm to the story, and the reappearance of manly, handsome Patrick in Celeste's life adds the romance we expect from a seasonal novel.
A definite winter winner.
