What a fantastic Christmas novella. Sweet & charming with a great reminder of what the season is all about. Learning who sent the Christmas cards & all the clues was fun. A total Hallmark movie story worthy of the big screen. Also, I love that at the end of the audio book, they included all the music.

Sweet Clean Romance

Second Chances

Baker/Horseman

I loved the story premise of the kind hearted niece getting rewarded for her heart. The idea of starting over and getting away from her current life situation rang true with me. Who hasn't wanted to just up and leave and start over.

Nick's story is multi layered and I loved his character. I wish there was a bit more about him though. I would have loved to seen a flash back or two about his past. 

This a great read and well written. This is a sweet (clean) romance for those wanting a slow sweet romance. I do wish there would have been more of them falling for each other though.
