Winter With You: A BRAND NEW escapist winter romance from Mandy Baggot for 2026

Discover the BRAND NEW gorgeously romantic read from Mandy Baggot, BESTSELLING author of A Greek Island Gift

Thirty-four-year-old Gabriella Felix has written this season’s go-to self-help book and now she’s heading to New York to capture the hearts – and dollars – of the US market. With her niece Phoebe coming along too, Gabriella hopes this trip can also be the festive holiday they both badly need after suffering an unbearable loss – Phoebe’s mum, Lulu.

Luca Manning is a stylist at the top of his game, completely focussed on his career, and hiding a big secret about his family. But when his next job is to curate a wardrobe for this British author, will the guard around his heart slowly start to drop?

As Gabriella and Luca bond in between book signings, celebrity talkshows and the snow-kissed streets of Manhattan, it’s clear that this is more than just attraction. But as they navigate past heartbreak and old wounds, will they be able to find a new beginning? And will it be together?

This winter, join Gabriella and Luca in New York as they discover that who you genuinely are is more important than where you’re at. And sometimes, with a bit of Christmas magic, who you meet makes you realise exactly who you long to be.
