As war rages, can the Land Girls still enjoy the magic of Christmas? Set during the Second World War in Yorkshire, this is a wonderful, festive tale of friendship, romance and triumph over adversity that fans of Donna Douglas and Daisy Styles will love.
Jenny Holmes lives in Ilkley, the gateway to the beautiful
Yorkshire Dales, and sets her sagas in her beloved home county and
in neighbouring Lancashire. She enjoys playing tennis, being around
horses and walking her dog by the river. She also writes children's
books as Jenny Oldfield.

While the novel doesn’t gloss over the hardship that the women have
to endure, it is as much about the special bond that develops
between them and is, more than anything, a celebration of female
friendship. Holmes handles her huge cast of characters and several
narrative threads with consummate skill and the period setting
feels very authentic. It makes for a warmly evocative and
satisfying festive read.
