A heart-warming Christmas romance about two rival toyshop owners on opposite sides of a festive competition, and of grief. Second-chance love, small-town sparkle and quiet healing set against twinkling Cheshire snow.

Two Rival Toyshops. One Unforgettable Christmas.

Five years after losing her husband and daughter in a tragic accident, Simone Beauvais has no room in her life for Christmas, or for love. Instead, she hides behind the polished windows of Jeffersons, the perfectly ordered toyshop she runs with precision and control.

Across the street, Gabriel Lovejoy embraces everything she can't: colour, chaos, laughter, and the magic of Christmas. When their rival shops enter a festive competition, Simone and Gabriel are thrown into each other's worlds. Slowly, his warmth begins to melt the ice around her guarded heart.

But when a snow globe in Gabriel's shop unlocks memories too painful to bear, Simone has a choice to make: open herself to joy again, or accept that some wounds run too deep.

A Tale of Two Toyshops is a standalone Christmas romance, for readers who love second-chance love, festive small towns and grumpy-sunshine opposites. Perfect for fans of Heidi Swain, Sue Moorcroft and Josie Silver.
