My Christmas Number one by Leonie Mack

When Leonie announced that she was going to do a read along for her debut novel I jumped at the chance and had so much fun hearing her thoughts and some of the behind the scenes tidbits! This book can be bought on Amazon UK, and Amazon US
Synopsis
Cara doesn’t do sexy and she only does ‘Happy Christmas’ under duress. She is, after all, a serious musician, and her stubborn streak is born from her struggle to recover from a serious injury.

Javi lives for escapist fun - in his music, and in his life - especially since he’s always failed at life’s more serious challenges, including marriage and fatherhood.

Javi and Cara are forced to record a Christmas single together, but neither of them have plans to spend any more time with each other than they absolutely have to. With Christmas traditions that couldn’t be more different, and outlooks on life that are worlds apart, the chemistry just shouldn’t work. But the magic of Christmas can bring even opposites together…

My review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Cara and Javi are forced to record a Christmas single together, and being complete opposites in all outward appearances there should be no chemistry between them!

BUT...with a bit of 'Nostalgia',a trip to Javi's home country of Colombia, some papaya ( read it to see the significance 😉) a feisty daughter, an insufferable father and some Christmas magic anything can happen.

This is not an "all snow and cozy Christmas" story, it weaves in a completely different side of Christmas in a more tropical type of climate and shows how love and friendship can cross language and cultural differences and create something special, something memorable and completely unexpected.

Do yourself a favour, go grab this book and follow the readalong on @leoniejmack instagram page and blog where she skillfully weaves in music and creates a vibe! And bonus there's a suprise on the final day of the readalong that beautifully ties up everything and makes you go ahhhhh and have heart eyes 😍

Thank you Leonie for the awesome readalong, it's been amazing seeing behind the scenes and hearing your thoughts.
