Celebrate the holidays with New York Times bestselling author Jenny Colgan’s Christmas Island Collection, featuring two novels—Christmas on the Island and Christmas at the Island Hotel—two romantic and festive tales set on a charming island off the coast of Scotland.

Keep the cold at bay and cozy up with New York Times bestselling author Jenny Colgan’s Christmas Book Set, collecting two novels—Christmas at Rosie Hopkins’ Sweetshop and Christmas at Little Beach Street Bakery—a pair of sweet stories full of romance, cheer, and hope for this magical time of year.

Christmas comes early—far too early—to McCredie’s little Old Town bookshop in Edinburgh. It’s summer, but an American production company has decided that McCredie’s is the perfect location to film a very cheesy Christmas movie. After all, who can resist the charmingly narrow historic street with its Victorian grey stone buildings and warmly lit shop windows? Carmen Hogan, the bookshop’s manager, is amused and a bit horrified by the goings-on, but the money the studio is paying is too good to pass up.

Born into a family of successful pilots, Morag is used to flying high. But when a tragic accident above the clouds grounds her, could the future she'd always imagined be suddenly out of reach? When she receives a call telling her that her beloved grandfather has been taken ill, Morag leaves her fast-paced life in London to return home to the tranquil Scottish Highlands. With her grandfather out of action, Morag has no choice but to take over flying the local route in his rickety old plane, ferrying locals across the beautiful islands of the archipelago.

Morag MacIntyre is a Scottish lass from the remote islands that make up the northernmost reaches of the UK. She’s also a third-generation pilot, the heir apparent to an island plane service she runs with her grandfather. The islands—over 500 dots of windswept land that reach almost to Norway—rely on their one hardworking prop plane to deliver mail, packages, tourists, medicine, and the occasional sheep. As the keeper of this vital lifeline, Morag is used to landing on pale golden beaches and tiny grass airstrips, whether during great storms or on bright endless summer nights.

Nina Redmondová je devětadvacetiletá knihomolka s hustými dlouhými hnědými vlasy, bledou pihatou pletí a neustálým plachým ruměncem ve tváři a právě dostala padáka! Jako introvertka to má v současném hlučném světě těžké a nikdo nechápe, že má ráda něco tak zbytečného, jako jsou knihy a že sní o tom, že si otevře knihkupectví. Knihám totiž rozumí a je v nich vážně dobrá. Proto její přátele překvapí, že se doopravdy rozhodne jít za svým snem koupit si dodávku a přeměnit ji na pojízdné knihkupectví. Jenže ona žije v Birminghamu a dodávka, která vyhovuje jejím nárokům je ve Skotsku.

This collection includes four classic TV novelisations in which the Doctor and friends are witnesses to alien invasion.

In Edinburgh naht der Winter! Höchste Zeit, die Christbaumkugeln zu entstauben, Plätzchen zu backen und die Schaufenster festlich zu dekorieren – eigentlich... Stattdessen aber wird die Buchhandlung, in der Carmen arbeitet, zum Drehort eines kitschigen Weihnachtsfilms, ihre Schwester setzt sie glatt vor die Tür, und die Liebe ihres Lebens hat dringende Verpflichtungen auf der anderen Seite der Welt. Fast könnte man da den Glauben an die Magie der Weihnacht verlieren... Doch dann verrät ihr schrulliger älterer Chef Carmen einen Herzenswunsch, der vielleicht nie mehr in Erfüllung gehen wird.

Carmen aner ikke sine levende råd. Hendes skønne boghandel er lånt ud som location til en corny julefilm, hun er blevet smidt ud af sin søsters hus, og hendes livs kærlighed er fløjet tusinder af kilometer væk. Det bliver næppe en særlig glædelig jul i år... Men da boghandlens tidligere ejer fortæller Carmen om et hjerteskærende juleønske, beslutter hun sig for at ryste sit dårlige humør af sig og gøre alt, hvad hun kan for at opfylde det. Tiden er ved at rinde ud, men heldigvis får Carmen hjælp fra både naboer, familiemedlemmer og en meget distraherende mandlig barnepige.

In the northernmost reaches of Scotland, where a string of little islands in the North Sea stretches towards Norway, lives Gertie MacIntyre, a proud island girl by birth. Her social circle is small but tight: family and friends, particularly the women in her knitting circle. In the whitewashed cottages of their hometown, everyone knows everyone, and the ladies of the knitting circle know more than most. In a place of long dark winters and geographic isolation, the knitting circle is a precious source of gossip, home, laughter, and comfort for them all.

En plus, son petit ami, Stephen, commence son nouveau travail d'enseignant à l'école du village.

La toute dernière série de Jenny Colgan ! Un premier tome gourmand, pour une histoire familiale chaleureuse et émouvante.

Ils vivent à 800 km l'un de l'autre. Pourtant, leurs vies sont sur le point d'entrer en collision... Lissa adore son travail d'infirmière, mais depuis quelque temps, elle s'occupe davantage des autres que d'elle-même. Après un incident traumatisant au travail qui la laisse accablée, elle accepte d'échanger sa vie pendant trois mois avec un inconnu qui vit dans un village tranquille d'Écosse. Cormac est impulsif. Tout juste sorti de l'armée, il a désespérément besoin de distraction, et il n'y en a guère à Kirrinfief. Peut-être trois mois à Londres sont-ils exactement ce dont il a besoin ?

Carmen is at a loose end. Her gorgeous bookshop is the filming site of a cheesy Christmas movie, she's been ousted from her sister's house, and the love of her life has just flown thousands of miles away. It's threatening to be a very unjolly Christmas indeed! But when the elderly owner of the shop comes to Carmen with a Christmas wish that threatens to never come true, Carmen knows she must buckle down to get the funds to save not only his trip, but the shop itself.

Carmen est désemparée. Sa magnifique librairie est devenue le lieu de tournage d'un film de Noël complètement ringard et elle a été chassée de la maison de sa sœur. Et pour couronner le tout, l'amour de sa vie vient de s'envoler à des milliers de kilomètres. L'esprit de Noël n'est décidemment pas au rendez-vous... Mais lorsque Mr McCredie, le vieux propriétaire de la librairie, lui annonce qu'il veut partir en Antarctique, Carmen met tout en œuvre pour l'aider à financer ce voyage.

Beloved literature teacher Maggie Adair loves her life at the prestigious Downey House boarding school on the gloriously sunny, windy English coast.

But these days Maggie’s feeling restless, lured by the promise of a different life back in her Scottish hometown. How can you follow your heart when it seems to be taking you in two directions at once?

Gertie has always had her head in the clouds, wondering what her life might be like if she could only pluck up the courage to leave the remote Scottish island where she was born. It's the only place she knows, but you can't do anything there without everyone knowing - the glue of this close-knit community is the Knitting Circle, a group of strong, capable and frankly nosy women who work hard, gossip, knit and support each other through thick and thin. At the centre of this sisterhood is Gertie's mum Jean and her grandmother Elspeth, and the three generations of women live together.
