She studied media at university which led to a very glitzy career as a hotel receptionist followed by a even more glamorous two years working in a bank. The moment that one of her colleagues received the much coveted carriage clock for fifteen years’ service was the moment when she knew she had to escape. She quit her job and returned to university to train to be a teacher. Three years later, she emerged wide eyed and terrified that she now had responsibility for the development of thirty young minds. She taught for four years and then escaped the classroom to teach history workshops, dressing up as a Viking one day and an Egyptian High Priestess the next. But the long journeys around the UK and many hours sat on the M25 gave her a lot of time to plan out her stories and she now writes full time, doing what she loves.

3.5 Stars.
Life is short and filled with missed opportunities–and when life tosses us something wonderful we should grab it and hold onto it with both hands.”

4.5 - Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. Stars!
I read a lot of books, and I enjoy most of them, but I would be telling fibs if I said I remembered reading each and every one. Holly Martin, and her books are a total exception to that rule. I remember them all, quite simply because they are unforgettable. Her writing style is unique, her characters unforgettable and her story-lines pure, reading perfection.
Harry and Susie from One Hundred proposals are Back! I loved the first book, this little Christmas novella is the perfect continuation of their story. Holly had me laughing, crying and awwwing over their antics, the situations that they ended up in, and the blog posts of the perfect proposals they arranged.
I hope at some point in the future that Holly has the opportunity to give Jules and Badger their own little story. After the events in One Hundred Christmas Proposals I really would love to see them get their Happily Ever After as well!

J'avais très envie de retrouver mes amoureux de Veux-tu m'épouser 100 fois ? : Suzie et Harry sont toujours adorables et surfent sur le succès de leur site en organisant des mises en scène romantiques pour des couples qui veulent déclarer leur flamme.
Ce mois de décembre grouille également de projets fous dont la soirée du 31 pour laquelle Suzie a carte blanche pour satisfaire ses clients. De son côté, Harry multiplie les coups de fil mystérieux et s'absente souvent sans explication. C'est une surprise, a-t-il promis.
Mais Suzie a d'autres chats à fouetter : ses parents sont de retour en Angleterre et ignorent les fiançailles de leur ancienne bru avec le cousin de la famille. Gros scandale à venir.
Ajoutez que Suzie attend un heureux événement... là aussi motus et bouche cousue. Ahem. Elle qui se languit d'avoir la bague au doigt se demande ce qui retarde Harry après ses multiples propositions. Sérieux, Suzie, tu ne vois rien venir ???
Verdict : c'est franchement TOO MUCH. Ce court roman est trop prévisible et hyper maladroit !!!
Heureusement l'ambiance est magique et les personnages débordent d'amour et de romantisme. C'est un maigre lot de consolation pour une petite lecture riche en sucre mais vraiment pas inoubliable.

(review copy)
Since reading One Hundred Proposals, the story of Harry and Suzie is one I haven’t forgotten (probably since I sulked for days once finishing that book). So I was more than excited to tuck into Holly Martin’s festive novella, One Hundred Christmas Proposals, and welcome them back into my life with open arms for an hour or two. The warmth to this novella is really just irresistible. Holly’s writing style is so addictive, she draws you into the story instantly and brightens your day with her gorgeous storytelling. Though Harry and Suzie’s life took an utterly romantic turn in the previous book, that didn’t mean this Christmas instalment was going to be all sweetness and light, just the right level and I found myself falling for the story pretty much straight away. Told through just six chapters, it predictably left me craving more, though that would have been the case over sixty chapters too. Holly paced the story beautifully, everything unfolds naturally and as the reader I had time to smile, swoon and wipe the odd tear away.
I think why I loved this book so much was that it wasn’t just a follow-up story to One Hundred Proposals. Of course, nobody wanted to let the characters of Suzie and Harry go after book one but Holly has turned this into a proper Christmas book too – all the little festive touches and the main plotline revolves around Christmas and it’s so refreshing to see a book made festive because of the content and not just the word Christmas in the title. Suzie and Harry are busy with the.PerfectProposal.com, planning on carrying out one hundred proposals throughout December. I was looking forward to this aspect because Holly writes some stunning, romantic scenes. Though the couple are still so obviously in love, Suzie is on edge a little in this book, worried why plans haven’t been set in stone for their wedding and why Harry appears to be acting suspiciously. Everything is so effortlessly timed and pieced together in this book, the style of writing is just lovely to read. More than just focusing on the romance between Harry and Suzie, there’s some secrets and mystery laced throughout the story as well as the chance for us to get to know a bit more about their family and friends. I really enjoyed the side story with Jules and Badger because Holly makes us care about them just as much as the main characters.
I adore the proposer’s blog. I would subscribe to it if I could. I find it to be so charming and heart-warming, the perfect bit of writing for those who want a good love story. The posts are so honest and realistic, with the most beautiful of proposals and sweetest endings. Harry’s voice, through the blog posts, is so easy to pick up on and he made me laugh a lot especially when he mentioned how Suzie cried every single time. As for the main story, I think we can all see where it’s heading very early on but there are no complaints from me as I got exactly what I wanted, except for the fact that it ended and I’m missing the characters all over again. One Hundred Christmas Proposals was a gorgeous festive story with loveable characters, fresh ideas and a plotline that will send your emotions into overdrive – from big hapless grinning to shedding a tear or two to laughing along with the brilliantly crafted characters.

When I reached the end of One Hundred Proposals I was left wanting more. I wasn't ready to leave the world of Harry and Suzie behind, so when I heard about One Hundred Christmas Proposals I couldn't wait to read it and I am thrilled to be part of the blog tour. I am also mentioned in the Acknowledgements section of the book which is amazing. At just six chapters, it's a really short read. Holly has been super busy writing this year so we are incredibly lucky to be given this little Christmas treat, and what a treat it is.
You really do need to have read One Hundred Proposals to fully appreciate this book. It could perhaps work as a standalone yet knowing the characters, and how they got to where they are now just makes the story all the more enjoyable. Harry and Suzie are perfect for each other. Now they are engaged however I was worried. Part of the enjoyment from the romance in One Hundred Proposals, and other books like it, is always the thrill of the chase, and the will they/won't they scenarios. The characters overcoming the obstacles in their way to find their happy ever after. I didn't therefore just want the book to be Harry and Suzie being all lovey dovey, I wanted there to be a little bit of tension, perhaps a few secrets and again, some hurdles before we reached the ending and luckily we got that here.
Suzie is eager to get married and wants to set a date yet Harry appears a little reluctant to do so. In the beginning he is also hiding something from Suzie which has her worrying he might be up to no good. Then there are some jaw dropping developments partway through the book, and it is huge. Say no more... Add into the mix her parents who still don't know their daughter in law has found a new love and there's so much going on in such a short space of time. Only a talented author can actually make a novella almost as good as a full length novel, Holly is a fantastic author who never fails to enthrall me with the stories she creates and she is more than capable of making a novella just as good as a novel. From the first page I was hooked, and had this read in one sitting.
Once again Holly has come up with some brilliant ideas for proposals, and some people will recognise the names of some of the people being proposed to! It's such a nice touch and as Holly is very involved in the blogging world it's fantastic that she adds stuff like this to her books. The Christmas element is also brilliant and definitely got me in the mood for the upcoming festivities. Waking up on Christmas morning is always a magical feeling and I love how that was the case here for Suzie and Harry. There's so much more I want to say about the book but it's hard to review novellas because they are so short. This is though the perfect Christmas read, and the perfect sequel to what was one of my favourite books of the year. Suzie and Harry's story is still not complete, and there's so much to still explore with these two characters that I hope Holly returns to them in the future, either with a novel or another short. Either way I'm once again thinking about these two characters nonstop and really want to read about what's going to happen to them next.
Thanks to Holly Martin for the review copy.

I'm so glad I read this truly delightful addition to Suzie and Harry's story! This novella is a must read if you have read One Hundred Proposals. Sweet, funny, sexy and at times sad, it's the perfect happy ever after for this beautiful couple.

I enjoyed reading about Harry and Suzie again but it was a bit on the dull side towards the end

I read the first book One Hundred Proposals a very long time ago but at time of reading I didn't realise there was a follow on book, namely book two. Wish I had know as I'd have loved to have read both books one after the other.
However despite that, I still thoroughly enjoyed reading this and thankfully as I started reading this, glimpses of memory came back to me which enabled me to vaguely recall what took place in the first book and also remembered some of the characters.
This has been a truly delightful and wonderful story, with lots of love and romance and plenty of proposals too lol. I very much fell in love with Harry myself, all the things that he did, the dedication and romance of it all, just wow.
As always with Holly's books, this was beautifully written and pure joy to read from start to finish.

This was sweet.
My fave was the HP proposal. I thought that one was quite ingenious if a little unbelievable...
I wasn't so keen on the ice skating one. Just started cute and the ending was weird to me.
The actual ending of this book was sweet. Glad I read it. Nice little holiday book.

A quick buddy read with Mel from Melanie's Reads to start the year we both loved book one and this follows straight after so they're best read in order. This is a short novella at just over 100 pages, perfect for Christmas as it's solely focusing on Christmas proposals. Main characters and couple Harry and Suzie get a beautiful ending and a new beginning in this story. An easy, fast and festive read. Brilliant. A well deserved four out of five stars. Highly recommend.

Leuk om de conclusie van het fantastische eerste deel te lezen maar je ziet het allemaal

WHAT I SAY
Again another fab cover by carina i just love their cover they just catch my eye each time and make me want to read .you can read this novella as a standalone book , but i would say try to read One Hundred Proposals first as it sets this novella up so well this novella take over from where the other left off ,
Holly’s written style so easy to follow you just get pulled into the plot . Suzie and Harry are still so much in love or are their a few cracks showing up ?
This novella is about the proposal business, the Perfect Proposal that Suzie and Harry set up the business is doing so well now they are aiming about 100 proposals over the Christmas period. I enjoy that Holly add Harry into the blogging world in this novella he write his posts we such passion and love for the proposals he set up it make a good read you can see them all in your mind .
Suzie sister in law jules with her boyfriend badger are in this book to i loved them they are so like us all just getting on with thing but still very much in love they are a great fun couple . They just fall in love that all the matters or it should be .you have to read to see what i mean . You will feel the same i bet to me it should not matter that jules her sister in law is now seeing her belated brother’s best friend and she knows this is going to be a problem. To her mum that are coming over for christmas . Her mum was not a nice person she could be rude out spoken and a pain but then she could be a nice lady what did you think ? Her dad was just a wonderful man i loved him so different to his wife they are very much chalk and cheese . But she did get into the christmas spirt i thought did you near the end .
Harry has a surprise gift for Suzie and seems to be sneaking around sorting things out. This upsets Suzie as she thinks there is something going on. When Harry says that it’s her Christmas present and that she will get it on New Year’s Eve she is happier. But still not sure what he up to .
Will Harry succeed with his surprise presents? And what was it ? Will Harry like the surprise Suzie has for him? Will Harry and Suzie ever set a date for their wedding?
All the character were great so warm and likeable the novella just full of surprise but it was a bit sad at time to it got a lot of action in there to which i like .
The whole novella got such a sweet and magical festive feel to it .I loved all the snow, the trees ,the gifts and the proposals side to this novella i want to tell you more but i love you all to read .
The end just so sweet and emotional .My only criticism is it to short i would of love it to be longer but i sure there so much more to come .
It just a great christmas read for you all this christmas
5 stars i loved it
It just brings out the christmas spirt to us all
I did enjoyed this book and would recommended it to you all .

my blog review for one hudred proposals by holly martin
The first chapter of one hundred proposal by holly martin
one hundred proposals by holly matin cover reveal
November 7, 2014
And Holly Martin did it again! I haven’t read 100 Proposals #1 (shame on me!), but that didn’t stop me from enjoying this festive read. I absolutely adore Ms. Martin’s unique style of writing and this novella was truly such a delightful read.
Suzie and Harry are together for what seems like an eternity. They run a successful business, providing help with marriage proposals. Their love for each other knows no limits. But Suzie starts having second thoughts. The big proposal seems very far away, and seems like Harry is having some secrets. He starts disappearing and making some secret phone calls. Is he having an affair?
Suzie and Harry’s story is very romantic and beautiful, for a hopeless romantic like me it was just perfect. They love each other very much, but there is trouble even in paradise. Can Harry keep Suzie’s love while keeping secrets from her?
With Christmas around the corner, people, especially the ones hopelessly in love, plan popping up the big question to their partners. And OneHundredProposals.com is there to help them. There are many Christmas themed proposals that will restore your faith in love, if you’ve ever lost it. Each proposal is so unique, and so full of love. Nothing is more important than the sparkles in your loved one’s eyes when they are looking at you and see the person who want’s to spend the lifetime with them.
One character I didn’t like, was Suzie’s mother. The woman suffers because she has lost her son, and is emotionally shattered, but that doesn’t give her right to treat people around her like that. And why is everyone so afraid of her?
Love, hate, Christmas and magic. This adorable festive read has it all. Adorable characters, unique romantic proposals, and lots of happy endings. Holly Martin did it again. Totally recommended for every time of the year, not just Christmas. Enjoy!
My rating: 9/10

I would like to thank author Holly Martin for sending me a copy if this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.
When author Holly Martin contacted me and aske would I like to be part of the blog tour I jumped at the chance, after reading and loving One Hundred Proposals earlier in the year and loving it, how could I pass up the opportunity to read this?
First I would like to mention the cover, I love the blue and red with the couple that is so obviously Harry and Suzie.
It is now six month on from Harry's proposal and they are preparing for the busiest time for their business, Harry has the fantastic idea that they can arrange one hundred proposals in December.
I love all the proposals that had Suzie crying and also at times had me in tears to, it was great that Holly also brought Harry's blog along into this book too.
We also get to meet Suzies parents as well as familiar characters from One Hundred Proposals, I love how romantic Harry is and he is such gorgeous character.
I didn't know how Holly could top One Hundred Proposals, but she really had managed to do it with this wonderful festive story.
Keep writing Holly I love your books!
When author Holly Martin contacted me and aske would I like to be part of the blog tour I jumped at the chance, after reading and loving One Hundred Proposals earlier in the year and loving it, how could I pass up the opportunity to read this?
First I would like to mention the cover, I love the blue and red with the couple that is so obviously Harry and Suzie.

I had previously absolutely loved One Hundred Proposals by Holly Martin, so when I heard One Hundred Christmas Proposals was being released, I could not wait to read!
This time the.Perfect.Proposal.com company are doing one hundred proposals by the end of December, so there is a little time pressure for them and they also begin to question if everything is perfect in their relationship.
Ah I just fell in love with this story, Holly has a way of writing that instantly draws you in and gets you feeling all soppy and emotional with Harry and Suzie's story.
It was fabulous to revisit all the characters again and especially Harry as he literally is the boyfriend/fiance of your dreams. Suzie is one very lucky lady! Harry and Suzie are such a perfect couple and the ending! OMG did not see that coming! Had a big grin on my face when I read that, as it was so utterly perfect.
A brilliantly romantic and festive novella from the wonderful Holly Martin!

This was a lovely read. Harry and Suzie run a 'proposal planning' company that is doing really well. They are running a campaign to organise 100 proposals in December- and have some lovely proposals planned. But why won't Harry talk about booking their own wedding. She just wants to be married to him- she doesn't want all the bells and whistles. But although he is deeply in love- he seems to be avoiding the final commitment.
They have a lovely Christmas and the last proposal of the month is nearly here - when disaster strikes and a heavy snowfall means that a lot of the food, chairs, lights etc are unable to get through. What will they do- who will come to the rescue? They make alternative arrangements and hope that the 'bride to be' will still be happy with the hastily rearranged details.
I will have to go back and read the first in this series- it was such a feel good book.
Many thanks to Carina Uk and Net Galley for a copy of this book.

This is my second book by Holly Martin; the first was One Hundred Proposals. I really enjoy Holly’s writing, and would like a prequel to when they first became friends till present day; I think that idea would work really well. One Hundred Christmas proposals was based a bit at Christmas but wasn’t featured that much which was surprising and rather disappointing. Having said that, I did still enjoy hearing about Harry and Suzie and what they’d done since the last book. This book had me welling up and that doesn't happen often!

I actually liked this one better than the first one. I think because they were together the whole time. It reminded me of Christmas at Lilac Cottage because of the snow almost shutting down a big event.

I found everything about this book very predictable, but sweet nonetheless.

Well this was surprisingly loads better than the main book since for all the denial and stepping-around-eggshells our two leads did, it was quite refreshing to finally see them together and work it out as a couple.
1st star - again, the vividness and detail of each proposal shows the author's creativity, and I loved that the proposals were now actually for clients rather than just wooing Suzie a hundred times over.
2nd star - I quite enjoyed the fact that this was less angsty than the main book. No more beating around the bush, it's time to get real for our main leads and the final surprise was just spectacular! Although I did wonder why Suzie never saw the signs leading up to the big finale as clues.
3rd star - our leads are still nothing bit remarkable but at least they've had a major improvement from both being in denial and wallowing in self-doubt and self-pity; they're somewhat secure now in their relationship and Harry thankfully now has eyes for only Suzie. Our heroine herself is a lot less annoying here and I now appreciate her enthusiasm in every proposal she arranges compared to the dread Suzie always seems to show in the previous book.
4th star - is anyone not going to talk about that fantastic Harry Potter style proposal???!!! That was bloody well done!!! Yes, that was the only proposal I could actually remember at the end of this novella so that's why it deserves a star for itself. On a side note, Harry's big surprise setup was also quite sweet, though I couldn't quite get the picture of Suzie dressed up like Elsa (in Olaf's Adventure) out of my head, what with that long furcoat and all.

This is the second book following the relationship between now engaged to be married Suzie and Harry who run an on-line proposals company.
It's the last few weeks before Christmas and the couple are busy organising surprise Christmas and New Year proposals - 100 in fact! They're also looking forward to spending their first Christmas together as a couple but are not looking forward to the visit by the inlaws.
This was a lovely continuation of their story, Suzie was maybe a little dense not to realise what was happening around her, but I still enjoyed the story.

Harry basically has green flag all over him.
The story continues a few months after Harry and Suzie proposal extravaganza. Their proposal business is going extremely well and they decided to help prepare 100 Christmas proposals. Of course we got read the proposal blogs as well.
Suzie has been wanting to get married and start planning for their big day, however, Harry is always avoiding the topic of conversation. And little did Suzie know she had been planning her wedding for two thinking it was a proposal for another couple.
Absolutely loved this book.

3.5. I liked this one more than the first book. I enjoyed seeing how things were progressing for Suzie and Harry and things are looking good for them. The proposals were still entertaining to read and it sounds like business will never end. I wish that there was another book but it appears that this is the last story for the 100 proposals so I'll have to be satisfied with how the story ended and did on a really high note.

Amazing perfect finish
This was perfect in every way possible and I so fell in love with Harry too and his supportive friends.
I couldn’t believe how long it took for them to get together and so many misunderstandings and Harry never did get to see the end of the letter, but then there would not have been a story.
I really loved how they helped each other/ opening up and being able to fully trust one another and were perfect for each other in every single way.

What an amazing follow up to One Hundred Proposals, I absolutely love the relationship between Harry and Suzie, and as Christmas is my favourite time of year, combining them all makes for a 5* read.
As each page goes on this book gets more and more emotional, I would not hesitate to recommend it, another fantastic book from Holly.

This book was not what I expected at all. I was expecting a wintery story set around christmas time - and I got a story about a couple finding out they’re pregnant and getting married. It wasn’t very exciting and the whole book is lacking a climax. I really enjoyed the first book, but this one was disappointing...

Cute little novella. Very predictable, didn’t love all the proposals this time. I wasn’t invested in any of their clients, but I get how it tied the two books together. Also, I know people have struggling relationships with parents, but since this wasn’t a large plot point of the first book I felt like it was unnecessary to focus on this wrap up story.
