Biographical note
Jenny Bayliss lives in a small seaside town in Kent with her husband, their children having left home for big adventures. She went back into education when she was thirty-nine and gained a first-class degree in Creative and Professional Writing from Canterbury Christ Church University. Jenny likes long walks along the seafront and baking days, especially when it’s cold outside. She is a stationery-obsessed coffee lover who doesn’t believe in saving things for best and shamelessly wears party dresses to the supermarket. Meet Me Under the Mistletoe is Jenny’s third novel, following The Twelve Dates of Christmas and The Winter of Second Chances.A warm-hearted romance to cosy up with this Christmas

Jenny Bayliss is the queen of uplifting, funny, smart romantic comedies. <i>Meet Me Under the Mistletoe</i> contains a cast of believable and loveably-flawed characters, including a charming bookish heroine who you’ll root for from page one. Add a dose of Christmas cheer, very funny banter and some sharp social observations, and this is the perfect seasonal read. I loved it!

The perfect blend of humour and romance. An uplifting, happily-ever-after gem that epitomises the perfect Christmas read

A winter wedding of school friends should be the highlight of Nory Noel’s festive calendar. But that group has long since drifted apart, and Nory is dreading the lavish, week-long affair. Still, she supposes, being the only single person means she gets a king-size bed in the idyllic castle venue all to herself.
As the champagne flows, the years roll back and soon the air is alive with old sparks and old tensions. Desperate for a moment of peace, Nory escapes and crashes into Isaac, the castle’s gardener – and her former school rival.
Nory and Isaac have more in common these days than they could ever have imagined. But as she steals more time away to spend with him, Isaac reveals an astonishing secret about his past. Nory is in a unique position to help right this wrong – but uncovering the truth might mean pushing Isaac away once more . . .
