Dear Santa,
I wish I could believe in magic again.
From, Sasha.
Sasha Hansley hates
Christmas. As a child, it was her favourite time of year, but ever since the
tragic death of her mother, it has completely lost its magic.
But when she gets an unexpected phone call from her eccentric
estranged father, she’s forced to dust off her snow boots.
He has been running a Lapland-style Christmas village in Norway
and after suffering a heart attack, he is on strict doctor’s orders to slow
down. Eager to reconnect with her dad, Sasha books the next flight out there.
Only she has never actually been on a plane before, let alone to the Arctic
Circle.
Met at the runway by drop-dead-gorgeous Taavi Salvesen, they sleigh ride
through the snow with the Northern Lights guiding their way.
When Sasha uncovers sacks of unopened Santa mail – letters
that children and adults from all over the world write to Santa every year –
she realises that she can send a little bit of magic out into the world by
replying to some of them.
With Taavi on hand
to help, will Sasha rediscover her own excitement for Christmas and find love
among the letters?
The Post Box at the North Pole is
like one big romantic mug of hot chocolate with extra whipped cream and a
splash of Christmas magic! Fans of Holly Martin, Sarah Morgan and Heidi Swain
will love this novel!
Seasonal frolics and Christmas galore in this magical, cosy treat of a read. I couldn’t put this down as I’d mentally whisked myself away to Norway’s North Pole Forest! It’s festive, it’s keeping the magic well and truly alive for all ages; if you need a bit of festive happiness this year, this book will firmly work wonders!
The oldest, most cynical amongst you are sure to feel the festive spirit after this book, and in my opinion it’s the best yet from Jaimie Admans.
Sasha isn’t that fond of Christmas anymore, the magic died a long time ago for her. Her father is always off exploring the world or doing something daring so she hasn’t got anyone to make this season special. Out of the blue her Dad calls and asks her to visit as he has had a heart attack and he needs her help. Sash jets off to Norway, to go support him and convince him that it’s time to come home.
With a surprise journey awaiting her once she arrives, she meets Taavi who both frustrates and amazes her in equal measure. As the next few days pass, Sash learns more about her Dad, the business and also about Taavi. She also starts reading the letters delivered to Santa and her heart thaws, her sense of wonder slowly starts to return and starts to remember to true magic of Christmas. Feeling like she can do more, Sash sets to work in responding to the letters and providing help where she can.
There is so much to the story; romance, fun, pain, drama, upset and a bit of magical intrigue. It’s wonderful.
I could see this play out as a film, you can picture workshops, festive villages etc. An absolute joy to read and I can’t recommend this highly enough this Christmas.

spiders, hot weather, and cheese & onion crisps. She spends far too much
time on Twitter and owns too many pairs of boots.
