This Christmas, everything will change…

When Liv Latimer says goodbye to her fellow nurses and finishes work for the holidays, she’s looking forward to a Christmas to remember with her boyfriend Eddie.

But as she leaves the hospital, tragedy strikes and Liv is faced with a choice. Will she ignore her instincts and go home as planned? Or will she stay, and potentially change the course of her life as she knows it?

    Posted on: 24/10/2022 at 6:49 am

    This is going to sounds really ungrateful, but because I have so many hundreds of books already in my library (both physical and virtual), I just know that the gift giver would either purchase a title I already own (none of my circle of family and friends are particularly avid readers) or would go for something completely off the wall which I probably wouldn’t read. I would therefore be more made up if someone gave me a gift voucher for a book shop, so that I could go and browse for myself (not that potentially the choice would be any easier for me to make!) xx
