Christmas at Willoughby Close

By: Kate Hewitt

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

Welcome back to Willoughby Close, with four new residents and happy endings to deliver....

Belinda "Lindy" Jamison has moved to the Cotswolds for a fresh start and to open a dancing school - her lifelong dream. Pushing 40 and still looking for Mr. Right, Lindy is determined to no longer wait for happiness but to reach for it with both hands. So she packs up her life and heads south to Wychwood-on-Lea to start up her school.

Soon Lindy has a motley crew of would-be dancers. But her most intriguing pupil is Roger Wentworth, a 40-something bachelor with a shy and awkward manner, but a heart of blazing gold. When Lindy decides to showcase her pupils in a Christmas show, Roger is deeply reluctant but finally agrees. Lindy longs to bring Roger out of his shell - but she didn’t expect to fall in love with him in the process.

Soon it is Roger teaching her how two lonely hearts might be able to embrace a second chance this Christmas...if they can just believe they’re both worthy of love.

Narration is stellar

Author Julie Hewitt writes good stories with interesting, mildly irritating- real characters. The characters remind us that everyone has struggles, a past and that there are people who want to be there for each other, and be happy. Justine Eyre is a brilliant narrator! She has a wonderful range to deliver each character uniquely and distinctive.

Sweet story

What a lovely story Thoroughly enjoyed it. Had a few editing issues repeated sentences. But loved the narrator

Loved this series

I really enjoyed this entire series of books. I could see myself living in the town and becoming friends with the characters.

Sweet

I wonder if the author’s portrayal of autism would actually relate to all people today? Specifically men. She did a good job developing the story of loss and healing. Very believable.

What’s the next in series?!
