🎄Meet the two people at the heart of my christmas story…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Two lovely lonely people. One very unexpected Christmas…
Meet Lucy🥰
She runs the family farm in Devon and is mum to 8-year-old Sam. She’s worked off her feet yet determined to give Sam the happy Christmas he deserves.
The last thing she needs is an uninvited guest. But Sam has other ideas…
And then there’s Dylan🤩
He’s gone from the boy Lucy met on the beach 20 years ago to a global superstar.
Fame has changed a lot of things.
But it hasn’t changed how he feels about Lucy
Thanks to Sam and his mischievous ways, Dylan arrives to spend Christmas at the farm.
Lucy’s life is turned upside down
Dylan is burned out and in need of a break
Could Christmas work its magic ✨ and bring Lucy, Dylan and Sam the gift they want the most?
Sometimes the person you left behind, is the person you’ve been waiting for all along…
NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS
My brand new Christmas novel out 8 October 2026
If you love family, community, second chances and a little bit of romance…

Three things I steal from real life when I’m writing…
And why the people around me should be worried!
People’s little habits:
fiddling with a mug, twirling a ring, checking their phone… I notice these tiny things and suddenly they find their way into my characters
Places: a little cafe, a beautiful beach, the prettiest shop… I’ll walk in and think, this could be in my book. I’ll change the name and location but keep the atmosphere
Things people say: If it makes me cry laugh or gasp, there’s a good chance I’ll remember it
Not to use it verbatim, but there might be a story inside those words!
The best stories are everywhere: a conversation; a place; a feeling…
Real life is full of little moments that might make it into a Cathy Bramley book
So if you’ve ever had coffee with me and thought ‘she’s very interested in what I’m saying’
You’d be right
Sorry. 🥰
