Christmas at the Island Hotel

On the tiny Scottish island of Mure, Christmas preparations are even more hectic than usual . . .Flora Mackenzie is worried about her brother. Fintan hasn?t got over the death of his partner, Coltan, and Flora thinks he needs a project.The Rock - the rambling, disused hotel on the tip of the island - was Coltan?s passion project before he died. With Flora?s help, Fintan is going to get the hotel up and running in time for Christmas, transforming it into a festive haven of crackling log fires and delicious food. But running a hotel, they are about to discover, is not that easy. Especially when their motley staff includes a temperamental French chef, a spoilt Norwegian kitchen boy who can?t peel a potato without mutilating his own hand and a painfully shy kitchen assistant who blushes when anyone speaks to her.Can they pull it together in time for the big opening?And can Flora help her family find happiness this Christmas?
