Chrissie used to love Christmas in her Swiss childhood home... until she lost her husband eight years ago. Add in a prolonged conflict with her sister Meg, and the holidays in the snowy Alps are just too hard to face. Now she's in quiet Oxfordshire, focused on her daughter Sarah's wedding.
But when Sarah runs away to her grandparents' chalet just weeks before the big day, Chrissie heads to the mountains to help - and finds her estranged sister Meg there too. Usually in London at the helm of a thriving chocolate shop, Meg's hiding the troubles of a tough year.
Trapped by snow in Winterbruck, the sisters must face old tensions, support Chrissie's daughter, and discover that family -and a little chocolate - can make even the coldest Christmas cosy.
