A delightful tasty treat of a Christmas (or any time of the year) read, set on a fascinating Cornish tidal-island village. Polly, Huckle and friends return, with Neil the Puffin often stealing the limelight, this could though, easily be a standalone read. The first few sentences stimulate your interest as an announcement is made, something bad has happened! Can “the Bad Thing” be made good in time for Christmas? Jenny Colgan excels at a light, fresh tone, yet she ensures a feeling of real life infuses the story, with twists, and bumps joining the loveliness. ‘Christmas at Little Beach Street Bakery’ is an absolutely gorgeous tale, so readable and charming, and of course, you really shouldn't miss out on the chance of getting to know Neil the Puffin!

Christmas at Little Beach Street Bakery Synopsis
It's Christmas Mount Polbearne - a time for family, friends and feasting.
Polly Waterford loves running the Little Beach Street Bakery. She's at her happiest when she's creating delicious treats and the festive season always inspires her to bake and knead something extra special for the village residents. In fact, the only thing she loves more than her bakery is curling up with her gorgeous boyfriend, Huckle. She's determined that this Christmas is going to be their best one yet, but life doesn't always work out as planned...
When Polly's best friend Kerensa turns up with a secret that threatens the life Polly and Huckle have built together, the future begins to look uncertain. And then a face from Polly's past reappears and things become even more complicated. Polly can usually find solace in baking but she has a feeling that's not going to be enough this time.
Can she get things back on track so that everyone has a merry Christmas?
