A BRAND NEW sparkling, uplifting story about love,
\nfriendship and learning to spread your wings from Samantha Tonge\u2728\ud83e\udd8b<\/span>
\nPerfect for fans of Shari Low, Faith Hogan and Evie Woods!<\/span><\/p>\n

Una Lowe lives a perfectly edited life in London. Other than
\nher best friend, she\u2019s careful about who she lets in. Emotional complications
\nare just that \u2013 complicated. That is, until she rescues a rare white swallow\u2026
\nwho might have just flown in to change her life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because, when her beloved swallow fails to return from
\nmigration one year, Una\u2019s world crumbles. But a viral social media campaign
\nbrings a miraculous response from a man in Bavaria named Konrad, who claims the
\nbird has also visited him. Which leads him to invite Una to his picturesque
\nvillage for the chance to see their shared feathered friend together.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stepping out of her comfort zone, Una flies to Germany.
\nAmidst snow-dusted streets, local festivals, and Konrad\u2019s undeniable charm,
\nUna\u2019s protective walls begin to fall down.<\/span><\/p>\n

But when the complication she\u2019s avoided her whole life comes
\nfor her, she\u2019s forced to confront her deepest fears. As autumn turns to winter,
\nand inspired by the tiny, brave bird that brought them together, Una must
\ndecide if she is finally ready to risk her heart.<\/span><\/p>\n

Is the only way to know if you can fly to face a possibility
\nof falling\u2026?<\/span><\/p>\n

My Thoughts<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\u00a0This is an uplifting and hopeful read with a real festive flavour and plenty of lively characters. Una has\u00a0 had a dysfunctional but affluent childhood and has plenty of issues to come to terms with concerning her distant parents. Her friend Ziggy and his mother give her all the family love and affection she has missed. They are the family she has chosen. Una has formed a close attachment for a beautiful swallow who she nursed back from injury. In her quest to find the bird who has failed to call on her this summer, Una travels to Bavaria and meets Konrad who changes her life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0There is plenty of romance in this story and its descriptions of snowy Bavaria set the festive scene so well, full of sugary treats, sparkling lights and snowy landscapes.\u00a0 Una has to decide whether she is brave enough to take a risk and start a relationship. Having spent most of the book avoiding her parents, she finds that a conversation changes her viewpoint a little.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In short: friendship, affection and kindness\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
