Publisher's summary

Hannah Swan is looking forward to Christmas for the first time in years. Her new job as an eco-consultant is taking her - and her geeky colleague, Noah - to the beautiful Cornish village of Porthgolow for the first time.

They’re are helping the Crystal Waters Hotel to ramp up its green credentials, though after a bumpy journey, Hannah can’t shake off the feeling that Porthgolow is strangely familiar. Never able to resist a mystery, her interest is piqued when the hotel’s staff and customers report odd noises and sightings, believing the hotel to be haunted.

When bad weather cuts off Porthgolow, Hannah and Noah are looking at a Cornish Christmas. It gives them plenty of time to work out what is really going on, but will their yuletide escape send shivers up their spines? Or will it be as warm and toasty as a glass of mulled wine?

Fun and festive.

I Love Cornish series and the new characters with the previous. Porth Galaow is dreamy.

I would give it a 10.

If I could, I would give this book ten stars rather than 5. Beautiful descriptions of the Cornish coast, a heartwarming romance and the reminder that a good group of friends can be family. All in the festive spirit of Christmas.

My favorite out of the series

This book introduced me to the Cornish Cream Tea Bus series. I love the storyline and connected with the characters plunky and sometimes predictable plots but it was fun. Great mystery romance for a holiday read. I went on to listen to the rest of the series after finishing this one.

Really too light, not enough story

I've read the other Cornish CreamTea books and this one I could easily have skipped. The main character is far too bland and I never really got a sense of her. The situations are typical, light novel ones, but far too many coincidences and just stupid plot points to bother with. But I did finish it, so it wasn't terrible. That's not saying much.
