It's beginning to look a lot like CHRISTMAS READING...even if it is still 90+ degrees outside, raining, and pumpkin spice is in the air. 😉 Hey, you can't help what you come across and when you come across it, but if you're a Contemporary Romance fan looking for a little holiday affair, this might be a well times gift indeed! Ladies and gents, please welcome Rachel's Random Resources as we present our stop on today's tour featuring...
The Tanglewood Bookshop

About the book...
A fun, festive cosy romance
A rural book shop. A chance to start over. But can she make her dream a reality?
Kazz used to love the excitement of her London life, but lately her passion for expensive city living has begun to wane. So when she's given the opportunity to open a bookshop in picturesque Tanglewood, she jumps at the chance.
But village life is much quieter than she anticipated – is she actually suited for rural living? Resigned to a boring and uneventful Christmas, when she meets gorgeous Saul she is more than ready to have some fun and enjoy the festivities. If only Saul didn't have a reputation for being a player...
Will Kazz become the heroine in her own Christmas romance, or will he love her and leave her under the mistletoe?
This gorgeous festive romance is perfect for fans of Kiley Dunbar, Rachel Lucas and Sue Moorcroft.

Once upon a time, she had it all...and then, she lost it, through no fault of her own. Kazz has the proverbial twist at the start of her "fairy tale" putting her without a job, a home, or a place to land. She winds up in Tanglewood, rediscovering old dreams long forgotten, and getting to know a particular gentleman with a bit of a reputation, or at least as big of one as a small town can have. The thing is, she's having a bit of trouble remembering the warnings sounded when she's with him, and the town is really working it's charm on her frayed nerves...until (like all fairy tale type stories) another upset that seems heck bent on turning her potentially happily-ever-after moment into just another broken dream. Has Kazz really found her heart right here in Tanglewood...or have her feelings simply got caught up in the notion of reaching that bright shiny ending? Guess you'll have to read it to find out for certain, but I will say this...a lack of communication can go a long way in discombobulating a situation. If only we'd learn to not shy away from what we need to say before it's too late... (*hint hint*)
I loved Kazz and could easily see her being a friend especially with her love of books, and family. Saul, even with his reputation, was another soul I saw as GOOD. I mean, I heard the warnings too, but something rang true here, something felt right. Betty was a hoot, and knows all somehow or another...if you don't believe me, you will by book's end! Oh, and watch out for Donald; he's way more wiley than his name implies. But I digress, it was lovely to escape to Tanglewood, but even more lovely to see our leading lady find herself while she was there. I was almost heartbroken when things looked grim, but I held on, kept reading, and was absolutely delighted to see where the author led us (and I loved the final twists!). A great read if you need a little Christmas right now, or something to add to your TBR for later this year!

About the author...
Lilac Mills lives on a Welsh hillside with her very patient husband and incredibly sweet dog, where she grows veggies (if the slugs don't get them), bakes (badly) and loves making things out of glitter and glue (a mess, usually).
She's been an avid reader ever since she got her hands on a copy of Noddy Goes to Toytown when she was five, and she once tried to read everything in her local library starting with A and working her way through the alphabet.
She loves long hot summer days in the garden, and cold winter ones snuggled in front of the fire, but whatever the weather she's usually writing, or thinking about writing, with heartwarming romance and happy-ever-afters always on her mind.
