BLOGTOUR: A Christmas Star - Mandy Baggot






About the book

Emily Parker is set to have the worst Christmas ever!

 

Her flatmate's moved out, she's closed her heart to love and she's been put in charge of the school original Christmas show – with zero musical ability.
Disgraced superstar, Ray Stone is in desperate need of a quick PR turnaround. Waking up from a drunken stupor to a class of ten-year-olds snapping pics and Emily looking at him was not what he had in mind.
Ray needs Emily's help to delete the photos, and she needs his with the show. As they learn to work together they may just open their hearts to more than a second chance...

My Review:

Mandy Baggot never fails to deliver an outstanding, feel good, romance – throw in a fabulous amount of festive cheer and we have one heck of a story... I loved it!

What wonderful characters (as yummy as always!) Emily and Ray are our leading characters; worlds apart on paper but they absolutely bring out the best in each other; they honestly make the nicest pairing I’ve read in a long time. Romance never runs smoothly but I was so happy that they faced their separate issues and they still wanted the best for each other. I’m not sure I am gushing enough about them!

There is a whole cast of hilarious additional characters both adult and child. Emily’s class are such superstars, they provide some wonderful moments, both funny and emotive. Working in a school and knowing how you must “go with the flow” and react to situations was funny and something I could totally relate to with Emily... she really proved her worth to that school.

Packed with genius comedic moments, this book will have you laughing your socks off, but it will also have your heart full and your emotions singing. Such a gorgeous festive treat, it isn’t all fluff, tinsel and turkey, there are some serious moments and issues addressed... I love how Mandy can take something and interweave it in a happy, love filled read.

With the most amazing festive atmosphere being created, I'm almost ready to get my Christmas Tree out now! I cannot recommend this superb festive, feel good smasher.
