Fans of Holly Martin and Phillipa Ashley will love this festive short story, featuring much-loved characters from Jenny Kane's bestselling novel Another Cup of Coffee.

When hotshot businesswoman Alice Warren is asked to organise a literary festival at beautiful Crathes Castle in Scotland, her 'work mode' persona means she can't say no - even though the person asking is her ex, Cameron Hunter.

Alice broke Cameron's heart and feels she owes him one - but her best friend Charlie isn't going to like it. Charlie - aka famous author Erin Spence - is happy to help Alice with the festival...until she finds out that Cameron's involved! Charlie suffered a bad case of unrequited love for Cameron, and she can't bear the thought of seeing him again.

Caught between her own insecurities and loyalty to her friend, Charlie gets fellow author Kit Lambert to take her place. Agreeing to leave her London comfort zone - and her favourite corner in Pickwicks Café - Kit steps in. She quickly finds herself not just helping out, but hosting a major literary event, while also trying to play fairy godmother - a task which quickly gets very complicated indeed...
