About this deal

Caro has possibly found her dad – the dad that walked out on her and her mum and who she hasn’t seen since. Caro’s mum suffers from early onset dementia and has been involved in a car accident because of this. She is in a coma and isn’t expected to live much longer. Caro has found who she thinks is her half-sister, Lila on Facebook. She decides to travel from her home in Aberdeen to Glasgow to see if her suspicions are right and this man is really her dad. Did you have any doubts there would be a happy ending? Did you like the ending? What’s next for those two love birds? One Day in December is a charming story about love and serendipity for the hopeless romantic in all of us.” With her sister’s impending wedding and her need for a date, an overbearing mother and not being perfect, Min has to decide whether to chance another date with Cal. One Day in December is about four persons' lives, entwined, connected and tangled. A perfect story that delivers the message of how one single decision can cause a domino effect on someone else life. That in every promise comes a lie and in every secrets comes betrayal.

It seems like this is some sort of secret insider’s tip in the reviewing world and I’m really curious now!

I actually believe one of my comments upon starting was that I thought chances were 50/50 I would DNF it. That thought seems utterly ridiculous now! Laurie is pretty sure love at first sight doesn’t exist anywhere but themovies.But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there’s a moment of pure magic . . . and then her bus drives away.

Their eyes meet, there's a moment of pure magic...and then her bus drives away. We’ve come to tell you that we’re running away together. We’re lesbians,’ Sarah replied, deadpan, making Bernadette splutter. Stuart’s eyes widened so much she worried that he’d do himself a permanent injury. ‘I’m kidding! Although, she does have great legs,’ Sarah added, grinning.

Thank you so much to Crown Publishing and Josie Silver for gifting us the Perfect Night In book club kit and sending out copies to some of The Traveling Sisters. It was an absolute pleasure reading this incredible book! I loved this book so much more then I thought I would. It is now one of my favorite Christmas stories, if not even my favorite, and I would recommend it to everyone who believes (or want to believe) in love at first sight, likes to read about friendships and life twists and turns. I was most interested in Bernadettes storyline and really hoped that everything would go according to plan. But I also sympathized with Cammy. Caros story was incredible and I was really excited about the outcome, but in the second half of the book her thoughts mostly repeated themselves. Lila was such a disagreeable person, but I was nevertheless curious about her day, although she also felt a bit repetitive after a while. The plan is going well, Jamie gets the reputation upgrade needed for his advancement at the firm and Laurie gets to flaunt her hot new boyfriend in front of Dan and his new girlfriend – but the lines between fake and fate soon become blurred for them both.

With "One Day in December", Shari Low wrote a story about different people in Glasgow, each of them with issues of his or her own and at least in one way connected to someone else. This reminded me a lot of the movie "Love...Actually", and I can really imagine it being made into a movie. As is so often the case with me and new authors, I started with the last book first 🙄 but it didn’t spoil my enjoyment of the others. One Day in December is warm, captivating, unforgettable and quirky love story not only between couples but within a friendship as well. It’s a story of friendship, loyalty, and missing chances that left us questioning if they really were.
