Roseford

'Wonderfully festive' Jo BartlettHollywood comes to Roseford, as Christmas wishes really do come true… The sleepy Somerset village of Roseford is the temporary home for the cast and crew of the latest Christmas movie, and there's excitement in the air. When Lucy Cameron, the owner of Roseford Café, is asked to fulfil a last-minute catering order on set, she can't believe her luck. Lucy's erstwhile teenage crush, Finn Sanderson, is the star of the film, alongside his glamorous co-star, Montana de Santo, with whom he has been linked on and off the screen, and their sprinkle of stardust around the village is intoxicating. With Christmas approaching and the snow starting to fall, Lucy's path keeps crossing with Finn's, and she starts to get to know the man behind the movie star. As her feelings grow, so too do Lucy's reservations about even considering becoming involved with someone so well-known. And when Lucy finds herself at the centre of a social media storm, her fears seem to be justified. Are happy-ever-afters just the preserve of Christmas movies, or could Lucy and Finn star in their very own festive love story… Revel in the perfect country Christmas romance from Fay Keenan, just right for all fans of Julie Houston, Cathy Bramley and Holly Martin.
