Kiss Me On This Cold December Night - Charlotte Phillips

Source: Review Copy courtesy of Harper Impulse

Christmas in London – a time for late night shopping on Regent’s Street or ice skating at Somerset House under a blanket of twinkling fairy lights, the warming, welcoming aroma of mulled wine in the air…

 

Or, alternatively, a time for bumping into the ghosts of one night stands past in Ella Scott’s case!

 

Checking into her boutique hotel for a weekend of Christmas shopping, the last person Ella expects to bump into at reception is Tom bloody Henley – ambitious doctor, highly eligible bachelor and with whom she had the most unbelievable, mind-blowing brief encounter five Christmases ago.

 

But Ella slipped out quietly the morning after all those years ago for a reason and although Tom’s got a look on his face that suggests Christmas has come early, there’s no way she’s going to be repeating past mistakes… right?

When Tom Henley is stuck in London's exclusive Lavington Hotel when his flight is grounded due to weather complications the last thing he thought he would see is Ella Scott the attractive one night stand he had a few years back and the best sex he's had in his entire life. 

 

I really do like Charlotte Phillips novellas this series is really fun and yet again Charlotte Phillips has pulled out a cracking little read for us. Bursting with suspense, drama and sex, what more could a girl ask for?

The one thing that I really did like about Kiss Me On This Cold December Night was how Phillips back tracked to 2008 to the first time Ella and Tom met. You'd think going backwards with memories might make the flow slow, but it's done extremely well and basically you get two stories for the price of one. That we would never complain with. 

Drama, Lust, Romance, fate and Christmas a saucy read that will have you gripped from start to finish. 

 

5/5
