A Not So Quiet christmas

  A Not So Quiet Christmas




A solo getaway at an English country cottage is a pleasant way to spend the holiday—but it takes two to really make things merry . . .

Antonia prefers a quiet Christmas. She’s happy to spend it on her own, watching Hallmark holiday movies in her pyjamas, eating what she wants, when she wants.

Antonia’s friend Jules, on the other hand, loves a big Christmas celebration and plans on travelling to the Yorkshire Dales for a festive break. But when Jules breaks her leg, she persuades Antonia to make the trip on her behalf. Arriving at the little cottage, Antonia meets the handsome property agent Oliver. But she can’t escape the weird locals—or avoid embarrassing situations like mistaking a cow for a burglar.

As Christmas approaches, the attraction between Oliver and Antonia grows. She could choose to return to the bustling city and spend it alone. Or she could choose love and have a not so quiet Christmas . . .

My Review

Suzie Tullett has a way with words, pullling the reader into the location with ease. I loved the Yorkshire Dales setting and the quirky locals. Seeing it from a townie's eye is also refreshing and some of Antonia's gaffs are really amusing. The attraction between Antonia and Oliver just sizzles, melting the snowy backdrop and the readers' hearts. Great story, fabulous setting and characters so realistic, you feel you should be friends.

Distant Voices












Come close and listen to the distant voices. Soothing tales, unsettling narratives, furious tirades and the softest and most tender whispers drawn from around the world.

In 2019 a cohort of students gathered online, connected by Hull University and by an ambition – to learn to write. Two years later, kept apart by pandemic throughout, they completed their Masters degrees in Creative Writing. This anthology is a selection of pieces from the Covid Cohort.

These collected voices are truly global – calling out from France, China, Australia, the Cayman Islands, Hong Kong, Wales and villages, towns and cities across England. The authors’ own heritages link back further, wider – to the USA, Scotland, Ireland, the Nordics, Eastern Europe, Russia – and the stories they tell range from a single room or street to take in entire cities and oceans.

Each voice is distinct. Each story a perfect glimpse into a world, real or imagined, which springs from the keyboard and fingertips of a student who has wrestled with words, lingered in lexis and danced with the rhythm of language itself.

Enjoy the collection. Listen to the distant voices. Maybe you will feel the urge to join them.
