Sharon Booth is a great author and I hoe we are going to see a great deal more of her work. This series is very good with great characters and setting. Well worth a good read and 5 stars.

Thanks to Netgalley, author and publisher for this ARC

I absolutely loved this story it was just such a cosy read with a gorgeous setting and some great loveable characters, Highly recommend!

Not quite the romantic feel-good Christmas book I thought I would be reading, Secrets and Surprises in Tuppenny Bridge by Sharon Booth was a bit of a letdown. A slow start to this book but it is a cute rom-com with a main female character that is a bit whiny at times. I had read the first two in the series and had thought the plot was well-developed in them which is why I was disappointed in this third book.

A copy was provided for my review, but all opinions are my own.

this was lovely book which drew you into the tales in the English village. the characters and story was a lovely relaxing read.

Very slow book with no Christmas vibes. Clemmie thinks she a know it all and because of this wasted six years of her life. This book reveals a lot in the last few chapters but getting there was hard going. For a small community who claimed to know the goings on about all the residents they failed miserably with the characters of Clemmie, Ross, Ben , Joseph and Dolly .

I received a free copy of, Snowflakes and Surprises in Tupenny Bridge, by Sharon Booth, from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This is book 3 of 3 in the Tupenny Bridge series. Clemmie is a romantic at heart, but has not found love yet. There are a lot of surprises in store for Clemmie this Christmas, not all good though. I enjoyed this book, Clemmie is lovely. I did not care for Dolly though.

This book felt a little long to me, although I also couldn't put it down. I thought the miscommunication trope was overused and repetitive, but enjoyed learning about each of the characters in this small town and seeing how each story line worked out.

Thanks to the Publusher and Netgalley for an early review copy.

Having read the previous two book, I was looking forward to this one.

I loved the characters, from previous books and new ones in this one.

Both Clemmie and Ross, have been through so much in their lives and those emotions showed in their characters.

The setting was beautiful, giving that Christmassy feeling.

I highly recommend this book.

an unexpected snowstorm strands Clemmie and her ex-boyfriend.. sweet book about second chances at love.

I really struggled to get into Snowflakes and Surprises, mostly because I just didn't really like Clemmie very much. Her behavior seemed really immature, and I often didn't understand why she was acting the way she did. Having finished the book, I think this was very intentional, but for me it was really off-putting and made it hard for me to enjoy the story. I did like the ending, though.

The perfect uplifting romance book three.
Christmas eve in the village in the valley of West Colby and the home is Wintergreen for Clemmie Grant and her aunt Dolly, and her aunt thinks it's about time she found herself a fella, but she much rather prefers reading her aunts books and running her business the corner cottage bookshop.
She never got over dumping Ross Lavender and after winning a voucher to have her portrait painted by Ross this is going to be so awkward for her facing him again.
I though this book was so fulfilling perfect and wonderful to read for this cosy dark nights to the run up to the holiday season, we a few highs and lows along the way, giving the strong subject of Alopecia make it heart breaking in chapters.
as I was reading I was hoping this couple would rekindle their love for each other once again with no secrets, I wasn't disappointed but it certainly didn't run smoothly throughout the read.
Enjoyed the whole story bringing lots of magic.

Clemmie wins the village Christmas raffle - only to find that the prize is a portrait painted by her ex-boyfriend Ross, a talented local artist, with whom she had split years before and had avoided ever since.
Yet again I've started reading a series part way through, however this didn't affect my enjoyment of the book and I look forward to going back to the start and learning about all the other characters. I liked Ross, however struggled with Clemmie with her seemingly irrational reasons for splitting with him, however as the story developed I began to see her differently. Without giving details I thought that her issue was dealt with very carefully and without judgement. All this is set in the lovely (but cold) setting of Tuppenny Bridge and is an ideal cozy read.
I received an advance copy of this book from the publisher through Netgalley, however this did not influence my review of the book.

There’s nothing I enjoy reading more at this time of year than Cozy Christmas Romance books and this one was perfect.
I loved the Characters and felt they were really well written. I enjoyed the plot but at times wanted Clemmie to grow up a little. I liked that there were other smaller stories inside the main one.
I’m looking forward to reading more about other characters from Tuppenny Bridge.

Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publisher for an eARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

thought this was a well written book. There’s a lot of stuff going on and secrets come out. I was a bit frustrated with Clemmie and her relationship with Ross. I guess they’re the same age but she acts so immature at times. I wanted to shake her at times
I was expecting more of a holiday story too

This one took a a bit for me to get into because I have not read the first two in the series. I liked the characters in this book after getting to know them as I read.
Clemmie and Ross have been through a lot and I could feel the emotions they were having for each other.
The town was the perfect place for this series. I liked the way the author was able to make the holidays feel while giving me the romance the stories is about.
Thank you NetGalley, Sharon Booth and Storm Publishing for the ARC of
Snowflakes and Surprises in Tuppenny Bridge. This is my personal review.

What a gorgeous heart warmer! This book has got all the elements of a good romance, a flawed but lovable heroine, a dashing hero, misunderstandings, red herrings and of course a happy ending!
I did not expect Clemmie's surprise in the least. I loved the fact that it was an unconventional and modern twist.
I did guess Reuben's surprise and I thought that it was a beautiful end to his tale.
Ben and Ross's surprise confessions were a surprise as just having read the second book in this series, I wasn't aware of a lot of that backstory. It keeps getting added to with every book which develops the storyline. I appreciate that and love the community that has been developed at Tuppenny Bridge.
Sign me up for the next installment!
Thanks to Netgalley and the author and publisher for a temporary copy in exchange for an honest review.

Ah, a return to Tuppenny Bridge-I have enjoyed this third instalment of village life and returning to old friends. This time it's set in winter and the weather plays a starring role in connecting our love interests - hopefully there's a new instalment soon.

This was such a wonderful, heartwarming story and had such a lovely sense of community too and i really enjoyed everything about it.

It was the perfect book to read while snuggled up under a blanket with a nice cup of tea and a biscuit or two!! Which is exactly what i did!

The story was so easy to read and each chapter gently pulled me along to the next one so that i could find out what was going on!

The characters were all wonderful and i really enjoyed getting to know them all.

All-in-all it was a lovely, heartwarming romance and i thoroughly enjoyed it…..

Thank you to NetGalley and Storm Publishing for the ARC copy of this book.
Clemmie is all set for a nice white Christmas only to discover her ex in the same pub as her. They haven't had much to do with each for six years and then Clemmie wins a raffle to have her picture painted by none other than her ex. She tries to get out of it but to no avail. Her feelings are still rife for him as they were, only she doesn't think he feels the same way..... or does he?
Overall this is a well written book and the cover is so adorable which is what drew me in to reading it. The characters are likeable enough although I did find myself getting frustrated with Clemmie. I wanted her to tell him that she still liked him and being grown ups, surely hitting thirty they could at least have cleared the air instead of wasting time.
The reason I awarded this a 3* instead of a four or a five is because I thought I was getting a hugely cosy comfie Christmas book. The first chapter dives straight into the season and festivities and I was content and snuggly but then we switch straight to and to quote the author, bleak and boring January in the Yorkshire Dales. A beautiful place for sure, but I was expecting the entire book to be focused around the holiday and festive season. I was a bit disappointed with that element.
I loved Clemmie's aunt Dolly who was such a character, everyone needs an aunty just like her, straight talking, no nonsense and putting some sense into Clemmie.
If you enjoy a very, very slow burn romance then this could be your book, it just didn't give me all the cosy small town vibes I was hoping for in a holiday read. It centered mostly on the reform work required on a manor, and focus on dreary English weather. That being said, it's a superbly well written book and worth a read if you are NOT expecting the whole Christmas nine yards throughout like most holiday books.

This was a feel-good, romantic story set in fictional Tuppenny Bridge, small-town northern England. Clemmie is devastated when, at a town Christmas raffle, she wins a portrait painted of her by hometown painter, Ross Lavender. The portrait is meant to generate publicity for the town's new Lavender Art Institute.

Clemmie should be thrilled, but Ross was her first true love and they split up six years ago and haven't spoken since. The story is told through alternating perspectives of Clemmie and Ross as circumstances bring them together.

There was a lot to like about this sweet holiday read set in a tight-knit English village with locals who have a penchant for gossip. It did drag for me a bit mid-way, when Clemmie was striking me a lot more like a petulant fifteen-year-old than a woman in her late twenties, while Ross seemed too good to be true. Luckily, it improved as we journeyed towards a Happy Ever After. A sweet, heartwarming holiday romance that is part of a larger series.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy - all thoughts are my own.
