Competitions: Win a Signed Copy of Christmas Cakes & Mistletoe Nights by Carole Matthews
Carole Matthews is back with Christmas Cakes and Mistletoe Nights which was released by Sphere on 19th October.
Thanks to Carole and Sphere, we have ONE SIGNED COPY to give away to one lucky winner.
Fay and Danny are madly in love and it’s all Fay’s ever dreamed of. But she left everything – including the delightful cake shop she used to run – to be with Danny on his cosy canal boat The Dreamcatcher. And as she soon finds out, making delicious cakes on the water isn’t always smooth sailing!
Then Fay gets a call from her friends, a call that sends her back to her friends and the Cake Shop in the Garden. It will be hard being away from Danny but their relationship is strong enough to survive . . . isn’t it?
Fay soon falls happily back in love with her passion for baking – especially now she’s on dry land again! – and starts to wonder if she ever should have left. With Christmas around the corner, Fay is determined that her friends will have a very merry time, but does that mean even more time away from Danny?
