Christmas at Rosie Hopkins Sweet Shop by Jenny Colgan


My last Christmas read for 2014 even tho I finished it just after New Year!!!!!!
Well what a boom to finish my christmas reads on and you will not be disappointed in this book .
This is the second Insallment to this lovely story . It's a year on fro. When Rosie took over the Sweet shop building up the business up more and more Rosie when moved Stephen in to living with her in Lillian cottage life couldn't be better apart from Lilian is now in a home Rise hopes that she will come back home and keeps her room untouched but Lilian has settle in at the home and will be running it in no time ....

While I was reading this book I felt that I hadn't really finished the first book as all the old characters put in and I was carrying the story on..

life is going smoothly even grumpy old Stephen who won Roise heart in the last book as a job at the primary school and is really enjoying it ,to Lady Lipton dismay she would rather have him running the family business and home Lipton Hall.. now all Rosie would love is a ring on her finger and really settle down as she has roots here now , so when she receives a call from Angie  her mother from Oz saying she and her bother and family are coming over to see she couldn't wait but also has to tell Stephen they are coming !!!!!

Also you settle back into the story there is a tragedy the Primary is hit by a lorry while the school is  full of children the village pull together and Stephen becomes a hero by protecting a student from an i pact of a blast and lands himself back in hospital while they Re mending his back from the blast Stephen is having flash backs from past and present events and starts to push Roise away inturn Rosie takes it on herself to save the school and village.....

As well as old characters we meet some new ones when a stranger turns up at the sweet shop acting like he had been they before ... but James arrived at the nursing home with his son Edward Lilian had seen a ghost was her mi d playing tricks on her or was she seeing her Henry .....

I found it very hard to put this book dos  with following Rosie ups and downs . While she and Stephen get they happy ever after walking into marriage or walking away to Oz to be with her family also will Lilian get her happy ever after too ...

You will just have to read the book find out it shouldn't be missed.
