The Christmas Escape by Belinda Williams – Review by Candice Estes

The Christmas Escape by Belinda Williams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lizzie has just been laid off from her job, and finds out that her roommate is moving out of their apartment. At the same time, her best friend Shona discovers that her boyfriend is cheating on her, and she is now stuck with an expensive plane ticket to Australia for a holiday the couple were supposed to have but now definitely will not be going on. When Lizzie decides to use her severance pay to buy her friends ticket, she can’t possibly foresee the coming changes. On her first trip to the beach, Lizzie meets Jaz and his two children, when one of them accidentally injures Lizzie. Through meeting Jaz, Lizzie begins to build friendships and relationships with people in Australia, but is always cautious because she knows she will be returning to London soon. What starts as a holiday romance that is ended before it really gets started turns into a happily-ever-after in the end. This is a quick, easy read with great world building and characters that you feel like could be your best friends.
