Driving Home for Christmas by Irish author Emma Hannigan is her festive contemporary literary/women's fiction heartwarming family drama novel set partially in Dublin, free courtesy of publisher Hachette's Review imprint.
This is the featured Free Book of the Week in both the iTunes UK & Australia stores.
Currently free, probably just through Monday @
B&N UK,
Amazon UK &
AU,
iTunes UK &
AU, and
Kobo (most likely only available to the UK & AU, possibly NZ and other such Commonwealth countries which share the same imprint for this title).
Unlikely to make a stop in the middle of the pond, as this exists in a slightly different North American edition which is not currently free.
ETA: Apparently, this is free in a bunch of European countries such as Denmark when I futz with the iTunes URL, so if you're in Europe or Oceania, it can't hurt to check your preferred stores.
Description
The perfect festive read for fans of Maeve Binchy, Cathy Kelly and Patricia Scanlan
Christmas at Huntersbrook House has always been a family tradition - log fires, long walks through the snowy fields and evenings spent in the local pub. And this year the three grown-up Craig children are looking forward to the holidays more than ever. Pippa to escape her partying lifestyle and mounting debts in Dublin; Joey the demands of his gorgeous girlfriend who seems intent on coming between him and his family; and Lainey to forget about her controlling ex and his recent engagement to another woman.
But with the family livery yard in financial trouble, this Christmas could be the Craig family's last at Huntersbrook as they face the prospect of selling the ancestral house.
As the holiday season gets underway, the family need to come up with a way to save their home, and face the problems they've been running away from in Dublin. And what better place to figure things out than around the fire at Huntersbrook House?
