Book description
Christmas should be a joyous occasion filled with peace and love, but
the looming prospect of the festive season fills Russell 'Buffy'
Buffery with dread. Retired actor, thrice divorced, hapless father -
Buffy is well versed in the complicated family Christmas, shuffling
between exes and children.
Except this year will be different. He has inherited a B&B in
rural Wales, and can finally escape the nearest and dearest, and play
'Myne Host' to a group of paper-hatted strangers, on escape-routes
from their own clans. But when the strangers check in with their
emotional baggage, and the Cab Sav begins to flow, Buffy soon realises
that Christmas is never without its little complications.
Join the gang at Heartbreak Hotel as they run riot, and celebrate
Christmas the Buffy way.
