A Christmas Wedding in the Cotswolds
What could be more festive than a winter wedding in the picturesque English countryside? Join us for Christmas in the Cotswolds with the bestselling Lucy Coleman.

Imogen Tolliman and Gray Adams can’t wait to get married after getting engaged the previous year when they were stranded by snow in a blizzard. Now they are busy planning their wedding, but when the date slips six months because Gray is working on a huge film project, it seems like fate that after their snowy start, they will end up getting married at Christmas.

The couple are living in Immi’s grandfather’s picturesque lock-keeper’s cottage at the Aysbury marina in the Cotswolds, which they are renovating to become their forever family home. As well as building work, full-time jobs, and wedding planning, Immi is in charge of raising money to build a children’s playground, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of The Santa Ahoy Cruises – her grandfather Tollie’s life work.

When Gray is suddenly forced to travel abroad, Immi is left to cope with everything alone, and before long, even the best-laid plans start to wobble. When a terrible betrayal is uncovered, the whole community of Aysbury is left reeling, and Immi is left wondering if there will be a wedding after all…

To say I thoroughly enjoyed A Christmas Wedding in the Cotwolds is a huge understatement! It combines some of my most favorite things! Canal life (I feel like there should be a # there), Christmas weddings! And the fact that it’s Immi and Grey’s wedding makes this book even more special. 

 

Immi is not only planning her’s and Grey’s wedding but organizing the fundraising for the children’s playground, working at her normal job, and oh yeah…. dealing with the renovations on the Lock Keepers cottage for their future.  

 

Oh, the calamities this wedding brings, but you can’t help but love every moment. I really liked all of the character additions to this book, but the love for the main characters just made it perfect. But that ending! Oh my goodness! It’s magical!  

 

I give A Christmas Wedding in the Cotwolds 5 stars!
