The Christmas Dog Sitters

At Christmas, all you need is love... but sometimes it takes a mischievous spaniel to help you find it. Rachel is struggling. Navigating the loss of her best friend Olivia, heartbroken by her ex-boyfriend and recently made redundant, the impending holiday season is the last thing she wants to think about. Her rich sister Maddie suggests that Rachel dog-sits her spaniel Humphrey in her luxurious country house in a quaint village in Surrey. However, Rachel is soon manipulated into caring for her elderly Grandpa Eric, too. Between flight-risk Humphrey and rebellious Grandpa Eric, Rachel uncovers family truths, discovers a secretive west wing... and must cook Christmas dinner for an entire village. Amidst the chaos, Rachel meets handsome builder Ben. Working at the house, he's also no stranger to loss, but is willing to re-enter the dating scene - albeit with a six-year-old daughter in tow. Can Rachel and Ben find their way through grief at this tricky time of year? And when a snowstorm threatens to ruin Christmas for everyone, can Rachel and Humphrey bring the community together? The Christmas Dog Sitters is more than a heartwarming festive comedy; it's a story of love and loss, and finding your own path, from the bestselling author of The Car Share.
