That Festive Feeling By Heidi Swain
‘That Festive Feeling’ is the latest book by Heidi Swain.
Holly has the place to herself this Christmas. It’s not her place, though – she is house-sitting for friends who live on Nightingale Square – just there to keep the place warm and cosy and only for long enough for her to sort her life out. Newly single and finding herself unsure about next steps for her career, she plans to hunker down and make some life decisions.To clear her mind, she sets off on early morning walks around a nearby lake and bumps into May, an older lady who is also new to the area, and her dapper Dachshund Monty. Quickly, a firm friendship blossoms. Then when Holly meets Bear, a rather large and rather attractive man, at the local pub, and his rescue dog Queenie, her stay at Nightingale Square suddenly feels even more appealing. As the community comes together for the season’s festivities, Holly must start thinking about whereher life will take her next. Some big decisions need to be made, but distractions close to home make thinking about the future more tricky than ever. Will she get that festive feeling this Christmas…?
With the darker nights upon us, there’s no better time to get into the Christmas spirit than reading the latest book by Heidi Swain.

I love books by Heidi Swain, their hugs in a story with warmhearted and romantic tales that sweeps the reader away. With vivd imagery of Christmas, food and atmosphere, this story is brimming with Christmas cheer. I loved the characters, Holly with her artistic flair and kind heart, May’s bubbly and outgoing spirit, the gentleness of Bear as well as the four-legged companions that also add some personality to the tale.
