Could It Be Magic is one of those books that is a pure joy to read from cover to cover with characters who are just like the people you know, a plot line that is all to plausible and even though predictable, is still well worth the read.

Thea Ashcombe is facing a very bleak Christmas. Single mother, part time teacher and all-round nice person, she is in despair as the Bank has just advised there will be an increase in her mortgage payments after Christmas.

Struggling to make ends meet, she is always seeking bargains in food shopping. When she sees Saints Farm Shop is now part of the Too Good To Throw discount service she makes the decision to go over there and hopefully snag a bargain.

Running her car on a sniff of petrol she makes it to the Farm Shop, only to realise she has run out of petrol. Nick Saint comes to her rescue with a can of fuel and several days later the offer of a part time job, while his sister is away on a ‘second honeymoon’.

 Even though she and Nick have history going back to their teen years she makes the decision to take the offer and so begins very, very slowly the next step in her life as they slowly begin to rekindle what was once a teen romance going nowhere, but now, older and wiser, it may lead somewhere positive.

Warm, enjoyable and absolutely entertaining Could It Be Magic is a gentle, perfect dose of romance set within the structure of a light read perfect to while away a wet afternoon when a little dose of escapism is required..
