Description

Wrap up warm and explore the breath-taking beauty of a remote Scottish island and an old house waiting to unlock enchanting family secrets.

Fans of Jill Mansell and Milly Johnson will love this irresistible new winter novel from Jo Thomas.

Do you need to find out where you've come from before you can know what the future holds?

Ruby's singing career is on the verge of hitting the big time, when her voice breaks. Fearing her career is over, she signs up for a retreat in Tenerife to recover.

But an unexpected call from a stranger on a remote Scottish island takes her on a short trip to sort out some family business. It's time to go and see the grandfather she's never met.

City girl Ruby knows she will be happy to leave the windswept beaches behind as quickly as she can, especially as a years-old family rift means she knows she won't be welcome at Teach Mhor.

But as she arrives at the big house overlooking the bay, she finds things are not as straightforward as she might have thought.

There's an unexpected guest in the house and he's not planning on going anywhere any time soon ...

I adore jo Thomas’s books so was very excited to receive this early copy to read and enjoy!
Coming home to winter island is a real treat of a book, full of gorgeous Scottish scenery, Christmas cheer, compassion and gin! What a great mix! The characters of ruby,Lachlan and hector are fantastic and you feel as if you know them so well, making you want to just keep on reading to discover more! Dementia a very sensitive often traumatic disease is portrayed in a gentle, tender way highlighting the effects music can have on sufferers and the changes it evokes in them, this positivity is lovely to see and really helps to show the real person behind the dementia diagnosis! Gin is my favourite drink so really enjoyed the background to gin making and the obtaining of the five secret ingredients! A fantastic book that I didn’t want to end would love to see a sequel. Thank you so very much for this early read.
