”This was truly the Christmas romance of my dreams” 5 ★, Reader review
Will all three women have their Christmas wishes come true?
Christmas is coming and best friends Chloe, Jules, and Lucy are needing change… so swapping homes for the holidays could be the perfect present for all of them!
Australian Chloe spends her Christmas in a sleepy village in Oxfordshire, England. She is totally … them!
Australian Chloe spends her Christmas in a sleepy village in Oxfordshire, England. She is totally star-struck when she discovers who lives across the road.
Lucy, who has jetted off to snowy Colorado for her dream-come-true white Christmas, is taken into the fold of Jules’s loud and brash family, discovering more about herself in a few short days than she has in years.
And Jules leaves the cold climes of Colorado to spend her Christmas on a beach with Chloe’s friends in Melbourne, finding that time away is just what she needed.
The only thing better than one Christmas romance is three, and this wonderful festive novel is perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan, Holly Martin and Karen Swan.

When they were 11 years old, 3 girls from different parts of the earth met on a beach in Maui and discovered they all had May birthdays. It became a true friendship throughout the years and this Christmas was no exception
Each one was going through something when one came up with a great idea. Do a swap over the holidays. Chloe wanted a white Christmas so she would go to Lucy’s parents house in Oxfordshire, England. Little did she know she would fall head over heels for one of the neighbors, who just happens to be a famous actor. Lucy wanted snow so she went to Jules’s family house in Colorado and had a wonderful holiday, especially with Jules’s brother Will helping her out in more ways than one. Then there was Jules’s who wanted a warm holiday and went to stay at Chloe’s flat in Melbourne, Australia and there might just be a little bit of romance there too. Each one has their own adventures, discoveries and secrets as well. Now the question will be can their friendship continue to be as strong as it was in the past or were words said that would cause some issues? What about romance? Can that handle the distance between them all?
The idea behind the book was great, it could have been but in all honesty after a bit it started dragging. I actually quickly read or even skipped over a few parts because it was just too long and not enough action. Each one seem to have a similar story in the end, so it was like 3 books thrown in as one, girl meets boy, they fall in love instantly and then all is wonderful in the world. There should have been more to it. Plus the characters seemed younger than they actually were. While it is a good read, it isn’t one that I will read again, it’s a one timer.
