Afternoon Bookery: The Christmas Love Letters

A secret romance was just the start of the story…

Tucked into a crook of the Norfolk coast lies Nelson’s Bar – an idyllic village where time seems to stand still. Maddy Cracey has called this beautiful spot home all her life, as had her husband Adey – until an epic row sent him storming out into a blizzard, with no sign of him since that fateful night.

Six years on, and Maddy’s life in the village has settled into a gentle pattern with her young daughter and Great Aunt Ruthie. However, when handsome stranger Raff turns up with a handful of long-forgotten love letters, their quiet life is upended as family secrets from the past are unearthed.

As Raff and Maddy get to know each other, they grow closer and a love story of their own seems inevitable. But when Maddy receives a mysterious message, she can’t help but wonder whether her own past is as distant as she'd thought it was…

The festive new novel about love, family and the power of words from Sunday Times bestseller Sue Moorcroft, perfect for fans of Sarah Morgan and Phillipa Ashley.

Ever pick up a book and feel like your home? This is how Sue Moorcrofts writing makes me feel, like a warm cup of tea on a cold day. The Christmas Love Letters was no exception and was another beautifully crafted narrative packed with emotion, heart warming characters and a cozy small-town feel.

We meet Maddy, who has battled alot to make sure she is able to stay in Nelsons Bar the place she has always called home after her husband vanished nearly 7 years ago after a blazing argument. However, shes pulled through - got herself out of debt, is looking after her family and plodding quite happily through life now.

When one day a stranger turns up at theirs with love letters spanning decades and a hidden family secret. This is about to turn the world as Maddy knows it upside down. As the past comes to light, relationships change and the future starts to look very different.

This was a wonderful read, packed with festive feels, heart warming moments and delightful characters. Written in true Sue Moorcroft style, everytime you picked this up you felt content, at ease and invested in everyone involved. Sue Moorcroft writes characters with real emotions, complex feelings and real depth to them. I think i find thats what i enjoy the most, the feel like real people you could know.
