Christmas at Polkerran Point

Fate may have brought them together, but secrets seem destined to keep them apart…

An accident and a lost passport mean Gemma’s six-month sabbatical to go travelling is not off to a strong start. She heads to Polkerran Point to stay at her aunt’s while her new passport is processed and she recovers from the incident. Finding winter in the Cornish seaside village a little quiet, she’s keen to find a job to fill the time before she can resume her adventures abroad in the New Year. 

Enter musician Matt. Newly moved into a secluded, renovated mill just up-river from Polkerran – complete with a recording studio – Matt is preparing for his band’s big reunion tour in the spring. Now all he needs is a live-in housekeeper, someone who will do everything for him so he won’t be distracted from recording new music.

Although Gemma’s life revolves around food—eating it, that is—she couldn’t boil a sausage if she tried. If only Matt could sing and she could cook, it would be a match made in heaven, but even as sparks fly between them, Gemma can sense Matt’s keeping secrets.

With them both destined to go separate ways once Christmas is over, is there any future for them or will the festive season in Cornwall soon be nothing more than a fading memory?

A cosy, festive Cornish romance for fans of Phillipa Ashley and Cressida McLaughlin.
