Blog Tour - Summer Hates Christmas by Rachel Dove

Today I am pleased to be taking part in Compulsive Readers Blog Tour to celebrate  Manatee and Rachel Dove's latest release, Summer Hates Christmas.

Summer Hastings hates Christmas. She loves sunshine, the beach and running her travel agency, sending people off to their dream destinations – even if she doesn’t get to see the world for herself. For Summer, Christmas is nothing but a reminder of all the things that have gone horribly wrong in her life, so when handsome Noel Pritchett moves his pop-up Christmas shop in the store next to hers, Summer is livid.

Noel loves Christmas…and he also has a sneaking suspicion that he might be falling in love with Summer, if only he could break through the armour she has surrounded herself with. Just why does Summer hate Christmas so much? And can Noel be the one to prove to her that life can be sweet all year round?

I have read a number of Rachel Dove's novels and I really enjoy them.They are great reads with relateable characters and plots that could happen to anyone. 

Summer is a great character and I really enjoyed learning more about her. Noel is the complete opposite to Summer but he realises that he is falling in love with Summer. I became invested in this love story and really enjoyed the 'journey' that they went on throughout the read.

I would love to visit Noel's Christmas shop - it sounds like a winter wonderland and stocks all things Christmas. However I can also relate to Summer's annoyance that the pop up shop has opened nextdoor with the constant Christmas tunes and festive fear.

'Summer Hates Christmas' is a great read.It is a Christmas read however I love reading festive reads throughought the year and I recommend to all. 

Thank you to Manatee and Compulsive Readers Blog Tours for inviting me to take part in the Blog Tour and for a copy of the book in return for an honest review.
