Four Christmases and a Secret by Zara Stoneley



Today is my turn on the Blog Tour for this fell good festive treat from Zara Stoneley. Thank you to Rachel's Random Resources for inviting me to join the tour and for my copy of the ebook in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. 



Book Description
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…
Except for Daisy Christmas means another of Uncle T’s dreaded Christmas parties, complete with Christmas jumper and flashing antlers.  And Oliver Cartwright.  Gorgeous Oliver Cartwright. Who she hates.
Every year Daisy has to face insufferable Ollie and hear all about how BRILLIANT he is.  Whereas Daisy has no job, no man and no idea how to fix things.
This Christmas however Daisy is determined things will be different.  There will be no snogging Ollie under the mistletoe like when they were teenagers.  No, this year she’ll show Ollie that she’s a Responsible Adult too.
But as the champagne corks pop, and the tinsel sparkles, Uncle T has news of his own to share…and it could change Daisy's life forever…





My Review
Zara Stoneley has done it again with this brilliant festive read. 
Daisy is not looking forward to Christmas again this year. It will be spent at yet another of her Uncle T's parties, where all of the talk from her mother will be about just how well Oliver Cartwright is doing with his life and how brilliant he is. This year could be slightly different for Daisy because at least this year she has a boyfriend. However with only days to go until the dreaded party she finds herself single. This was not part of her plan. Then at the party she finds out that she could be out of a job too. Daisy is devastated with he news but luckily Oliver is there to help cheer her up. 
With the new year approaching Daisy decides that this will be her year to make some changes and make her life more planned and organised. She applies for a job within the company she has been working for already and is pleased to hear that she is offered a position and a pay rise. The only downside to the new job is that it means moving house, but luckily Uncle T has a house she can stay in it just happens to be where Oliver stays too when he is working nearby. With Daisy and Oliver spending more and more time together will sparks fly between the pair and will romance blossom? 
I loved this story from start to finish and couldn't put it down. I really enjoyed getting to know Daisy and finding out more about what a has happened in her past. It is also great to see her grow in confidence as the book progresses. Oliver is also a brilliant Character to read about and you realise how much of his life he has been thinking about Daisy. 
The setting for this book is great and I loved all the book references from within Uncle T's bookshop. Uncle T is also a brilliant and quirky character to read about who has Daisy's best interests at heart. 
I thoroughly enjoy the writing style of Zara and she really has a way of drawing you into a book and keeping you there until the very last page. 
I am already looking forward to the next read from Zara Stoneley.
