My Review
5☆ Beautiful story of Intrigue, Mystery, secrets, Family Drama.
House of Christmas Secrets is the second book in the series. I wasn't fortunate enough to read the first book.
However Lynda packed so much past story in the first few chapters I felt I knew the characters stories already. So I would definitely say you can read this as a standalone, however judging by the back story the first book is well worth a read!
Once I started this beautiful book I was instantly hooked.
Jess tells us of her near death experiences by her sisters obsessive ex boyfriend when he kidnapped them and set fire to Wrea Hall Hotel.
However lots of her family members were not so lucky. Losing their parents.
Now her sister Madeleine has the hotel up and running.
I don't want to give too much away because this story is truly captivating.
I loved each and every one of the characters. The closeness between Jess and Jack her fiancé and her sister Madeleine. Not to mention her little niece Poppy who was such a joy.
I adored Lily what a charming 8 year old. So caring with a huge heart and a zest for life.
She's not had the best start in life, her prostitute mother Annie a drug addict left her alone and cold as a baby. Then several times she robbed them blind leaving not even a toy.
Gosh Annie made my blood boil!
I want to applaud Lynda for her fantastic writing of such sensitive issues of prostitution, pimps, drugs addiction, long lost family members, racism, homelessness, grief, depression.
Although these issues are sensitive Lynda perfectly placed them within the story with ease and sensitivity. Which only added to the depth of the writing!
I can't recommend this story enough.
The characters stole my heart, captivated me, created enough tension and mystery surrounding all the secrets, exciting little twists and turns, it had heartbreak, humour, loveable characters especially Nomsa the cook who was like a mum to everyone, it had love, Family drama.
The perfect Enthralling, Poignant Christmas read!
Highly recommend!!
