Once again Caroline Roberts has given us another wonderful book.
It was nice to meet up with Lucy and Jack again. What else was nice was the references to characters from her previous books and bringing them into the story line.
Caroline writes stories that draw you in and make you feel as if you are there in the lives of the characters.
From the very first chapter I was hooked I could not put this book down. The story line took twists and turns and made it a total page turner. If you want a good Christmas read this is the book to go for and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Looking forwards to the next book in this series.

Mistletoe and Mulled Wine at the Christmas Campervan was such a cute and fun Christmas romance. This book is the second book in the series but I don’t necessarily think you need to read the first book first to follow the story, it could be read as a standalone. With that being said I can’t wait to go back and read the first book to see how this series began. I have read many Caroline Roberts books and I have enjoyed them all especially her Christmas books. I highly recommend reading this book.
Thank you to Netgalley for sharing this digital ARC with me in an exchange for an honest review.

Mistletoe and Mulled Wine at the Christmas Caravan is a lovely follow up to The Seaside Cocktail Campervan. Lucy and Jack are back struggling with their relationship together as well as relationships with family and friends. Can they trust their hearts to each other? Take a risk with their hearts and take a chance on love? This is a sweet and romantic part two to their original adventure together. Very enjoyable read.

A definite five star read.
I fell in love with Mistletoe and Mulled Wine at the Christmas Campervan the minute I seen the cover. Full of festive magic once again Caroline has written a Christmas gem.
The story of Lucy and Jack continues with all the Christmas magic in the the Pizza Horsebox and Cocktail Campervan. Lucy is falling for Jack in a big way but will Jack let his guard down enough to let her into his heart.
I love that we meet up with our old friends from Rachel’s Pudding Pantry and Emma’s Chocolage Shop. We even have a wee trip back to Claverham Castle and it’s family.
A bit of a rollercoaster of a read but loved every page.
Thank You NetGalley and Harper Collins UK for an ARC of this magical book.

This was a really cute romance and was a nice follow up to the first book in the series.

Its only September and I am already in the holiday mood, so this book was perfect.

This was a simple, cozy and delightful read that will be perfect for the upcoming holiday season. I enjoyed it quite a bit but I don’t think it will be memorable. It’s not a spectacular read; there’s nothing special about it. However, it’s a solid book with great cozy vibes.

It was a nice surprise to discover this was the second in a series and I’d read the first one already. We pick up again with Lucy and her pizza horsebox and jack with his cocktail van. A great story catching up with previous characters but it felt a little slow at the start and I wasn’t sure where it was going. Got so much better later. Once again I loved Daisy the daschund.

I’d not read any of Caroline Roberts books before and enjoyed this festive story about Lucy and Jack. I liked the idea of the pizza camper van and the community feel with all the other small businesses at the different events. The will they won’t they theme ran through the whole book until the end , with the dynamics of other various relationships as well. The locations sounded so gorgeous, especially with the descriptions of romantic walks along the beach. Daisy the Dachshund was quite a character too! For me it was an easy read that flowed and kept me wanting to know how it was all going to turn out. Thank you to Netgalley and One More Chapter for the opportunity to read this in exchange for an honest review

I really enjoyed this story as I've already met the characters from previous 'Campervan' stories by Caroline. I loved how their story progressed throughout the book with ups and downs as well as a happy Christmas ending. A fantastic book!

Was delighted when I realised this was a follow on from a book I have previously read, great to catch up with the amazing characters once again and to read about how they have dealt with life since the last book
Brilliant writing and great storyline can't wait to read more from this fabulous author

Was so wonderful to be back with Lucy and Jack and there travelling pop up food vans, nonna is enjoying life to the full was a truly fabulous and totally magical book can highly recommend ❤️

This is the second in a series, while I'd suggest reading them in order - there is enough background info in this second book that you'll easily be able to follow the storyline.

Lucy, her dog Daisy, and the pizza horse cart are back on the circuit selling out pizzas and keeping up with Jack, in his cocktail campervan. Romance is progressing, until a mishap with Liam, Lucy's ex. The first book read a lot easier and was more interesting. This book seemed a bit disjointed and focused a lot on Lucy's friend, Becky's past issues with Jack, that dragged on.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for a digital, temporary ARC in return for my review.

What a fun Christmas story to add to your list for this year!!!! The holiday vibes are strong in this one and I am here for it!!!! It is SO British, so Christmasy, and (with the exception of a couple of grumpy or shady people) it is so fun!!!!
I love the idea of people having travelling food or drink trucks and not only being at bigger festivals or carnivals, but at personal events such as birthday parties!
The characters are fun to get to know and I believe there may be another one before this?
If you’re looking for holiday vibes definitely pick it up. So fun!!!!

As always Caroline has outdone herself again. A great read and I loved all the returning characters, I have missed them. Highly recommended.

What a lovely festive book.
Ruby the camper van was the star of this book along with Daisy the dog.
Lucy is the proud owner of a shiny pizza horse box and she is dating Jack the prouder owner of Ruby the cocktail camper van.
This is a lovely festive seaside romp and a gorgeous book.
Well worth a read. Thank you netgalley for this arc in exchange for an honest review.

This is the first book I'd read by Caroline Roberts. I enjoyed the writing style - it's well written and light-hearted making for good escapist reading.

I loved the setting and the book really captures the festive season. The characters are likeable and the plot moves at a good pace. There was something about the plot that fell slightly flat for me - I think it needed a little bit more 'action.'

I did feel as if I was missing out on a backstory and I think some details of the plot needed to be explained further.

Overall, a good Christmas read.

Cute and cozy, pretty much what you would expect from this genre. A good read to get you into the Hallmark Christmas movie season.
