This is a really sweet children’s book that I know I would have enjoyed reading to my kids when they were young. It would make a great read for a toddler or child just learning to read. With the magic of snow and Christmas mixed in, and the fun colorful artwork, it’s sure to be a story asked by a child to be read to them over and over again.

***I received a free copy of this book from the author. All thoughts and opinions are my own.***

Book Review: Christmas in Angel Harbor by Jeannie Moon

Besides the beautiful cover, this is really a great story about two middle-aged adults who find love with each other. Jane and Dan were once friends in their small town when they were young. But as life is, Dan moved on and out of town and became a hugely successful best selling author. And Jane took over her family’s bookstore and stayed put in town, due to a death in the family.

Something happens to drive Dan back to town to visit his family, and he ventures to his old hangout, the bookstore. Jane and Dan reconnect and, well, that’s all I’ll say on the plot. 🙂

I really enjoyed this book. I love a strong independent heroine, which Jane is. And I appreciate how they both know what they want, and can communicate to each other. It really is refreshing to read about a middle aged couple finding love too.

So if you’re looking for a cozy small town read, definitely give this a try!

Christmas Joy by Nancy Naigle Review

A heartwarming Christmas story about family, friendship and finding love in unexpected places.

 

Joy Holbrook might be all work and no play, but that changes when her Aunt Ruby takes a fall that lands her in a rehabilitation center before the holidays. Joy takes a leave of absence from her job as a market researcher to run the family farm, even though the timing may hinder her chance at garnering the promotion of her dreams.

 

Ben Andrews isn’t your average accountant. He also happens to be the handiest man in Crystal Falls. He’s helped his elderly neighbor, Ruby Johnson, decorate for the annual Christmas Home Tour—and win—the last several years. He’s not about to let some drop-in niece break their winning streak.

 

Ruby seems overly concerned about Joy being able to handle Molly. Under the impression she’s referring Molly the bunny that is one of the menagerie of animals, Joy’s not worried at all until the next morning when a little girl named Molly shows up. For the sake of her aunt, Joy is forced to partner with Ben while Ruby is on the mend to help with preparation for the Christmas tour and, in the process finds her career-focused heart dreaming of a family.

 

Will the magic of Christmas help her to open her heart and find her everlasting joy?

It’s Yuletide at Conall Castle.

 

Christmas is quickly approaching, and Adelle is determined to make this Christmas the best one Conall Castle has ever seen, but loneliness haunts her. Love for her daughter sent her into the past, but she’d not expected the isolation she would feel. A former socialite and serial dater, she finds that her current age seems much older in the seventeenth century than it did in the twenty-first. She resigns herself to the fact that she will remain single for the rest of her days. At least until an unexpected visitor arrives at the castle.

 

Hew Moray has spent the last twenty years all alone, only leaving his isolated home once a year to pay homage to the wife he lost long ago. When a winter storm causes him to seek shelter at the castle where his sister lives, he meets the first lass since his beloved Mae to make his heart flutter in his chest once again. Will he be able to release himself from his past grief to allow another love to enter his life? If he does, will his love be returned?

Traditions, mistletoe kisses and second chances… The Cajun Christmas on the Bayou Celebration is an annual event in the remote town of Fa La, Louisiana, nicknamed – Fa La La. It has supported generations of the families who live in the tiny, isolated bayou community. This year may be the last. Thanks to Hunter James who bought the neighboring island, they can no longer use his land for a major part of the celebration. The island is his home where he expects to find much needed peace and quiet. He doesn’t want Christmas lights, music and revelers on his land no matter what Fa La La’s beautiful advocate, Dr. Camille Comeaux, says as she tries to change his mind…and changes his heart.

 

Will Camille fight to steal Hunter’s peace so her family can have theirs?
