Another Christmas with her husband? Bah humbug.

Holly is forty-five, fed up and fantasising about freedom over a buttered scone in Crumbs Café. Her overbearing husband Oliver controls everything — from the money to the thermostat — and her only joy comes from daydreams and forbidden phone calls to her son.

But a mysterious woman named Michelle Mindblower appears, claiming to be her guardian angel. Suddenly, Holly's world begins to shimmer with possibility — and rum-spiked cola.

With a little help from celestial forces, a charismatic tailor and a Holmesian stranger with a fondness for seafood risotto, Holly may finally get the one thing she's never had: a life of her own choosing.

Can Holly make a break for freedom in time for Christmas — or is she doomed to spend her life under Oliver's thumb?

Holly's Holiday Angel is a sparkling, heartwarming festive romcom novella about courage, second chances and believing in your own magic.
