Every Christmas Lizzie promises herself that things will change and she will leap into the new year a new woman. And yet here she is again, at the beginning of December and nothing is different. Her girls have grown up and left home, her husband Henry is slumped in front of the TV and she is alone in the kitchen, seeking refuge in the cooking sherry and talking to her Gary Barlow calendar. She’s also been very diverted by handsome new neighbour Marcus and she knows she shouldn’t be …
So when best friend Ann suggests a weekend away in the country, Lizzie jumps at the chance. Will this Christmas escape give Lizzie some much needed perspective and allow her to mend her marriage? Or will Marcus prove to be too much of a distraction?
Yesterday, on 21 October, Christie Barlow's latest novel 'Lizzie's Christmas Escape' was released and it's an October release I can't wait to pick up myself. I really enjoyed Christie Barlow's novel 'Kitty's Countryside Dream' and have been looking forward to picking up another one of her books. Next to that, this book has just a lovely festive cover and I can't wait to dive into this year's Christmas novels... Definitely at the top of my October wishlist!
