Blog Tour - A Winter's Dream by Sophie Claire

 

A Winter’s Dream  by Sophie Claire

Blurb

Liberty has never been a risk-taker. She loves the routine of her quiet life in the charming village of Willowbrook, with her Labrador, Charlie. But the arrival of a mysterious gift prompts Liberty to make some changes: starting with a daily challenge to say yes to everything for the month of December...

Fearless and independent, Alex could hardly be a less obvious fit for peaceful village life. But after an accident cuts short his promising motorcycling career, he finds himself in Willowbrook in search of new direction.

When the pair become unlikely housemates, sparks fly at Damselfly Cottage. Will living together prove impossible - especially when the first snow falls? Or, cut off from the outside world, can they help each other find what it takes to be brave this Christmas?

My Review

I absolutely loved this story!

Liberty loves routine and loves living in the quiet village of Willowbrook.

When Alex comes to Willowbrook to find answers, at first seems to be the complete opposite to Liberty, do opposites really attract? Or are they not really that different after all? 

I could really relate to Liberty, her need of routine and anxieties but can she really be brave and complete the challenge she has given herself for December? She is an inspirational character with her overcoming her fears.

My heart really felt for Alex as he carries around the weight of the past and mistakes, will Liberty be just what he needs to get him out his rut too? I would love to return to these characters.

Sophie’s writing makes me feel like I was there and how I would love to be able to sew!

The perfect Winters Dream ..... I just devoured this story.
