About this listen

A single mum. A superstar athlete. A Christmas like no other.

Anna Heath is divorced, a single mum and trying desperately to keep her life in order. Despite her friends' best efforts, Anna has stopped looking for love and is determined to give her daughter, Ruthie, a Christmas to remember.

Sam Jackman has just been dealt with life altering news, and all he could think to do was run. He's left his American football team back in the US, stuck a pin in a map, and landed in Richmond, London.

When Anna and Ruthie literally bump into Sam on the snow-speckled streets, he finds himself being welcomed into their lives. But what begins as a night on the sofa turns into the start of something special...

This is another brilliantly written book by Mandy Baggot. She tackles difficult subjects of autism, Huntingtons disease, grief and dealing with aftermath of divorce,but its done in a fabulous and endearing way. Opens your eyes to understand a little bit how to cope with these difficult situations. But all done in the story, that makes you keep reading and wanting to find out how it all ends. Loved the whole storyline from start to finish . I read the book and also downloaded the audible version the voice of the narrator is superb and brings the story to life

what a wonderful story to listen to

Dear Mandy and dear Narrator thank you both for sharing this so much needed love story, the beauty of finding love and belonging in the middle of a horrendous diagnosis. Of family restoration from a mess of miscommunication and of transformation from seeing autism as a problem to seeing the amazing unique person with all their gifts who makes life richer.
It was an honour thank you for writing and narrating this. It genuinely moved me, made me laugh, refreshed me, challenged me in a good way. So many great characters, Ruthie, Anna, Sam and Neeta especially. And brought Richmond to fond life. Indeed let’s live life to the full.

Heart, honest, brave, original, joyous, eye-opening, beautiful,
