Its almost Christmas and most of the books I will be reading for the rest of the year will be holiday themed. I am participating in the Writerly Yours Christmas Readathon 2016. The WY Christmas Readathon is a fun little challenge. All you have to do is read holiday themed books. Yes, it is that simple.

Today I am sharing the book I am currently reading in the challenge, The Christmas Cake Café by Sue Watson.

Goodreads Summary: Heart-warming and hilarious, a story that will make you laugh, cry and bring a smile to your face.  Get ready for another deliciously amazing Christmas treat from Sue Watson….

As the Prosecco chills and Bing Crosby croons, Jen Barker just knows that her long-term boyfriend is about to propose.  But instead of a diamond ring nestled in her champagne flute, Jen finds cold flat rejection.  Her once perfect life and dreams of a husband and family seem even further from reach.

A working holiday to the Swiss Alps with her younger sister Jody might not be the Christmas Jen had it mind, but it offers her the chance to recharge her batteries and recover from heartbreak.

When Jen meets handsome ski instructor Jon Zutter her hopes for a happy-ever-after seem within her grasp again. Jon is kind and gorgeous and as they bond over Sachetorte at the picturesque Cake Café, Jen thinks he might just be her perfect man. But a relationship with him comes with a catch – and there are some things even cake can’t fix.

As the snow falls and Christmas approaches, could this be the place that restores Jen Barker’s faith in love?


I am reading the Kindle edition. I got the book via NetGalley.
