A Head Over Heels Christmas

Author(s): Sara Downing

Location(s): Florence

Genre(s): Fiction, Romance

Era(s): Present Day

A standalone Christmas story from Sara Downing, author of Kindle Top 100 Head Over Heels and Hand On Heart.

Best friends Evie, Grace and Alex – plus their husbands and many offspring – descend on the beautiful Italian city of Florence for a magical Christmas.

The three couples are excited for their winter break – and all for different reasons. Evie and James haven’t seen their eldest daughter, Immy, for months, and Evie hopes the trip will smooth relations between James and Immy’s French boyfriend, Pascal. Alex and Mark can’t wait to have their five children back together under the same roof for the first time in ages. And Grace and Tom are simply looking forward to their first overseas trip in years with their ten-year-old twins.

The stage is set: a few days of sightseeing around the famous galleries and museums, exploring the backstreets of the Medieval city, cosy bistro lunches, and the pièce de résistance, Christmas dinner at a luxury hotel. It’s all going to be so perfect…

But Evie and James’ world is about to be rocked. Immy has some news, which none of them could have seen coming. As the Christmas spirit flows and old friendships are renewed, can the friends help Evie and James come to terms with the changes to their family, or as the snow begins to fall, is it the end of life as they know it?
