Melt My Heart (North Fork Series Book 3) by Alicia Street – Review by Kerry Baker

Melt My HeartMelt My Heart by Alicia Street
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is an engaging and enjoyable holiday romance story. There are some lovable characters right at its heart and I couldn’t help but become invested in them. They had both been burned by love in the past and have to work to find a way past it to find happiness with each other.
This book is the third one in an already great series. It can be read as a standalone but they are all worth the read. I always enjoy this authors writing style. Each book is well written, engaging and entertaining. They are the kind of books I like to sit with on a lazy afternoon to get lost in. I thought this was a thoroughly enjoyable story and I am looking forward to the next.

Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book 3) by Elsa Winckler – Review by Candida Hopper

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a charming romantic story. I enjoyed the author’s writing style. This is the third book in this series but it can be read as a standalone. Riley is a single mom trying her best to take care of her son, Dylan. Dylan is adorable and I think he made the story that much better. Mitch and Riley take some time to realize how they feel about each other because neither one was looking for a relationship. This book has family, love, laughter, romance all in a Christmas setting which made it a great read. I recommend this book, you do not want to miss out on this charming story.

He knows he shouldn’t get involved with her in any way other than friendship but their connection and chemistry is beyond words and can’t be denied forever.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have enjoyed this series so far. I love that you can read the books in order but you don’t have to because each one is also a standalone in its own rights. When Alice moves back to her hometown, she has to deal with the way her family looks down on her and treats her; until she meets James, a recently divorced, yet successful artist. Alice is tired of her family meddling in her love life, and decides to take things into her own hands. Will they do more than just fake it, or will they make you.

I absolutely love Christmas themed stories and this one fits the bill perfectly! The is the 3rd book in the series, but I read this as a stand-alone and didn’t feel as if I was missing anything. This is the perfect blend of interfering family, single-mom, swoon-worthy bachelor and small-town charm that is perfect for the Christmas season.
Read in just a couple short hours, you will find yourself drawn into the world of Mitch and Riley. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Faking the Fall (Buckeye Falls Book 4) by Libby Kay – Review by Nicole Thompson

Faking the Fall by Libby Kay deserves every one of its five stars and more! Despite being the fourth installment in The Buckeye Falls Series, this book can be enjoyed as a standalone without any confusion. Kay brings to life the charming town of Buckeye Falls, Ohio, and this time, she shines the spotlight on Alice Snyder, sister of the town’s mayor, Anthony. Alice, accustomed to being the town’s black sheep, decides to take control of her love life when the town’s meddling goes a step too far. Her solution? A fake romance with James Gibson, a newcomer dealing with his own set of problems. While Alice doesn’t expect their fake relationship to evolve into something more, James is secretly hoping for just that.

This heartwarming love story provides the perfect escape from reality. I’ve devoured the previous books in the series and can confidently say that “Faking the Fall” doesn’t disappoint. Alice and James’s connection is incredibly sweet, and watching their story unfold is pure joy. Kay’s portrayal of small-town life is spot-on, with everyone sticking their noses into each other’s business, creating a delightful backdrop for the budding romance. From the first page to the last, I was captivated by this beautifully painted picture. So, whether you’re a fan of the series or a newcomer, grab your favorite drink, snuggle up with a cozy blanket, and get ready for a delightful romcom experience. “Faking the Fall” is a must-read and one of the sweetest love stories I’ve encountered!

Almost and Forever by Angela K. Parker – Review by Jessie Hopkins

I felt connected to Hope from the very start. She has a vision for her life and isn’t going to settle for anything less than wonderful.
Adam’s story is relatable and yet heartbreaking. He is reluctant to open up again with what happened the last time he did.
To open your heart after such a monumental loss is difficult and scary. But it seems like their paths just keep crossing and have been for months, since their first chance encounter At what point do you just cave in and let fate take over, just accepting that maybe this person is put in your life for a reason?

Grab your tissues and block out some time because once you start you will be hooked on this book.

Chasing Cheer (Magic Emerald Hollow Book 1) by Heather Schneider – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.

Chasing CheerChasing Cheer by Heather Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Holly Claus lives in the North Pole and is the daughter of the famous Santa Claus and she is in charge of collecting the Cheer which powers her home, but she has never been as successful as her father and has to spend a lot more time away from home collecting it, be it at festivals, concerts, or theme parks and she is always trying to find new sources. Ash Hayes is a young man with a twinkle in his eye, he lives in Emerald Hollow and owns a business there, but he also helps the rest of the town out when he needs to and this keeps him very busy, but he loves it and thrives in the atmosphere the towns hard work has created.

When Holly starts out her new Cheer cycle, she decides to do something a little bit different, she finds a flyer about a fall festival in a small town and realises that it isn’t something she has tried yet and that it would be a great opportunity to test a theory she has about small towns and how much Cheer they have, so she hops in her faithful sleigh and heads to Emerald Hollow, but as soon as she enters the nearest place, her Cheer watch goes mad and she cannot understand why, especially when she meets the owner, but she is determined to find out why. Ash is busy preparing for the fall festival the town holds every year, but this year he has also decided to try and boost the Christmas faire that they have, he even enters them into a Hallmark contest, something which will help the town bring in the tourism it so desperately needs, so when a beautiful woman orders one of his famous drinks in his restaurant, he cannot help but be drawn to her and he cannot understand why, but he decides to get to know her a bit first.

As the festival approaches, Holly and Ash spend time together and cannot deny that there is an attraction there, but Holly cannot afford to be distracted and when she mentions that she is leaving after the festival, Ash realises that that isn’t something he wants, he wants someone who stays, however, when she agrees to come back for the Christmas faire, he is glad. Things are not as they seem though and when Holly returns home with her bumper load of Cheer, things start to change for her, but is this change a good or a bad thing and where does Emerald Hollow and Ash fit into it all? Will Holly be able to figure out why her Cheer meter is reacting how it is before Christmas comes around and everything that comes with it, or will everything fall apart and slip between her fingertips? This is a new take on a old festive tale where small towns, Cheer and romance mix to create a magical story that everyone can enjoy.

Chasing CheerChasing Cheer by Heather Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was an unexpected twist on the Santa Clause story, mixed with a happily-ever-after story. Holly Clause spends most of every year gathering cheer from the human world to power the North Pole. Everything Holly thinks she knows about the cheer and how it works changes when she finds a flyer for a festival in a small Oregon town, and decides to check it out, figuring that a festival is probably a good source of cheer. When Holly arrives, she quickly realizes that the town and the people in it are different, and the cheer works differently for some reason. Holly spends a little bit of time there, then has to go home, but decides to go back for their Christmas Faire to help the town and the friends that she’s made. What she doesn’t expect, is to fall in love with a human, a man named Ashe, and the effects it will have on her magic. There is a good bit of world building in this book, and the cliff hanger definitely leaves me curious what the future will bring for Holly, Ash, and the rest of the characters we’ve come to care about.

This story hit the spot with the cooler weather coming in! I am all about Hallmark Christmas movies and this book gives all the holiday vibes. I love the wholesome romances and then throwing in the holiday just makes that much better. Holly has taken over collecting Christmas Cheer for the North Pole. It is an important job that her dad made look effortless. She finds more than she expected in Emerald Hollow. When Ash comes into the picture everything changes. I loved how reading this book was like watching a movie. You will want to curl up with a fuzzy blanket and some hot cocoa to read Holly’s story! Looking forward to book 2!

Chasing Cheer was such a fun, small town, clean romcom. It is such a great introduction to the Christmas season and it throws you headfirst into all the Christmas feels kind of like the comforting, cozy, joy that you get from a Hallmark movie. Chasing Cheer hit me at just the right time, even though it’s not quite Christmas yet, I appreciated how uplifting this story was. The characters were realistic and likable. Loved the Christmas magic!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Chasing Cheer is Book One in the Magical Emerald Hollow Series. It is a fun, whimsical, contemporary romance with a Christmas vibe. The story centers around the characters of Holly Claus and Ash Hayes. Holly is traveling the world to collect cheer to power the North Pole when she meets Ash in a small town in Oregon. The two have instant chemistry but she is not looking for love and he is not looking to have a relationship with someone who will not be sticking around. Holly and Ash are lovable characters that you know instantly are clearly meant to be together. The chemistry is instant and magical which kept me reading to see what would become of them and if they could make a relationship work. I loved the magical picture the author painted which really drew me into the story. The book was well written, and the scenes were so vividly described it was as though I was fully immersed in the scenes with the characters. It felt like I was watching a movie play out in front of me and I could visualize myself surrounded by the sights, sounds, and smells of the Christmas season. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

The perfect weekend holiday read! I’m a huge fan of the Hallmark Christmas movies and this book could absolutely be made into a movie! It was a quick read that kept me interested the entire time. Holly’s character is so sweet. I felt bad for her not really understanding why she struggled more than her father. I was a bit surprised they didn’t teach her growing up.

As the new(er) head of the Claus business, Holly has to work hard for the cheer to power the North Pole. It doesn’t help that she has to work harder than her father to gather cheer leading her to being out of range for most if the year.

When Holly visits a small Oregon town on a Cheer hunting whim, all she thought she knew about collecting Cheer goes out the window. Emerald Hollow is full of it. Cheer that is. So now she’s determined to figure out why and how she can use the small towns abundance of Cheer to help the North Pole.

Emerald House is more than just a business to Ash Hayes. It’s his world, and everything he’s ever known. After taking over the family business, Ash is determined to bring tourism up in Emerald Hollow, even if it means entering their tiny town into a Hallmark contest.

Holly’s not planning on staying but the amount of Cheer in Emerald Hollow could put Christmas at stake and leave her wanting more at the same time. Ash doesn’t want to love someone who leaves. Neither of them have a choice anymore.

I really struggled at the beginning, I felt that it was written in a very roundabout, odd manner for the first few pages, but it really cleaned up after the first chapter.

It turned out to be a super sweet and adorable holiday read that I’m really glad I stuck around for. A fast-paced storyline once it was in motion and plot that reads like a Hallmark movie and this girl is sold.

I loved the characters and I can’t wait to see what lore we can get from Emerald Hollow and I can only hope it’ll be a bit more holiday fun!

It seems like it’s meant to be. The way this story plays out is nothing short of amazing. I laughed, I cried, I shook my head, a lot… I couldn’t put it down. Angela K. Parker has a way with words.

Faking the Fall (Buckeye Falls Book 4) by Libby Kay – Review by Jennie M Bechtel

Faking the Fall (Buckeye Falls #4)Faking the Fall by Libby Kay
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is another great read from the “Buckeye Falls” series. First, we read the stories of Ginny, CeCe, and Natalie. Now, we get Alice’s story. Although Alice Snyder grew up in Buckeye Falls, she has just returned to town. She meets newcomer, James Gibson. The two are instantly drawn to one another, but decide to “fake date” instead of dating for real. As the story progresses, they get closer. There are twists and turns that threaten to keep them from a lifetime together.
I love this book! I did read the first three books in this series, but this one is my favorite. I think it could be read alone, but I recommend reading the other books for background on the characters. Alice is complicated – she is educated, intelligent, and somewhat quirky. James is a perfect match for her with his creativity and gentlemanly disposition. I enjoyed reading as the two got to know one another. I was on the edge of my seat as they faced challenges together and apart. By the end, I was even more in love with Buckeye Falls and its characters.

This book is probably one of the most beautifully written that I have read in a very long time. The author does warn of the content in the story but ye whilst I cried a lot it was also dealt with so sensitively and unfortunately it is something we all have to go through. The way the author wrote about certain things in the books she really did make me feel what the characters were feeling. I could feel that joy, happiness, kindness and also that deep grief, sadness and hurting of all of the characters in the story. The dual point of view was great I really did feel I was able to connect with both Hope and Adam and truly understand how they were both feeling.
It’s hard to write this review without giving away too much of the storyline and it is too beautifully written to be spoilt!
I honestly cannot recommend this book enough; it is truly a beautifully written story!

Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book 3) by Elsa Winckler – Review by Julie Johnson

Merry Christmas, Montana (The Millers of Marietta Book 3)Merry Christmas, Montana by Elsa Winckler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Riley is a single mom trying to get her career back on track after losing everything four years ago. Well, she lost everything except for her adorable son, Dylan. Mitch is part of the Miller clan and he’s always such a sourpuss, or in Dylan’s words, always yelling! When Riley and Mitch meet up at yet another Miller family wedding, Mitch saves Riley from having to dance with the crazy drunk party crasher. There is an electricity from the first touch and, while they both try to deny their feelings at first, they really can’t. Riley is dead set on getting into another relationship but then Dylan starts asking questions.

This was a much more enjoyable book for me than the previous one in this series. It wasn’t horrible and I was probably just having an “off-reading day”. I loved how the story progressed but Dylan is my favorite character in this story!!! Will he get his Christmas wish?

Another story by Elsa Winckler that gives you all the feels. The Millers welcome you into their family from book one and you feel like you belong there. A heartwarming story of Riley a single mother with a young son. A professional photographer who puts her child first. The Millers are a family that have faced tragedy, moved to a new location to start over. And over the course of the books man have they started new lives. In the 3rd book you just can’t help but fall in love with Riley as you get to know her better. The best part of all these books is that the characters are in each other’s book, so you really get to know them. Can’t wait to see what comes next.

This book is an emotional and beautiful story that really tugs at your heartstrings. The author has done an amazing job of portraying loss and grief and the conflicting emotions this can bring with it. And through all of this, the connection between the characters really stood out. It was strong and consistent and really added another layer to the story.
I was pulled into this story right from the start and couldn’t put it down until I had finished reading it. I wanted to see how everything would play out and what would happen to the characters. I became really invested in them and their journey. I definitely shed tears reading this book and it entirely worth it. I would highly recommend this book, it is fantastic.

Where I come from , South Africa , Christmas is celebrated in the summer so all I wanted to do was get the gammon in the oven , the trifle in the fridge , plates of snacks and settle in , escape for a few hours 🥰📚

This was one of those reads that get you into the mood of “ silly season” there’s magic , there’s romance , there’s learning the true meaning of friendships and relationships 🥰

Will I read again? For sure ! Is it something I’d recommend? Oh yes ! It really was a fun , feel good read 🥰📚

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

4 Stars

 

Merry Christmas, Montana is the third (and final?) book in The Millers of Marietta series by Elsa Winckler. It is a Christmas romance with a small-town setting, emotion, family, chemistry, spice, a special Christmas wish, heartwarming/feelgood scenes, and finding love unexpectedly.
Even though this is the third book in the series, it can be read as a standalone if you want. Each instalment in the series focuses on one of the Miller siblings who have moved to small town Marietta for the new beginnings that offers. This time we get Mitch Millers story and get a front row seat to fate bringing him his perfect match in the form of single mother, Riley O’Sullivan- although, they might not realise that they are meant to be, at the time. This is another Miller-O’Sullivan match that has proven to be a winning recipe in the previous two books.
The characters are wonderful, fully developed individuals with their own unique personalities, quirks and flaws- but who are also quite endearing. The characters continue to develop and grow over the course of the story too, so who they ‘are’ at the beginning of the book evolves as the story unfolds. The story itself maybe a little on the cliché side- but one I was happy to let charm me with all the sweet, heartfelt, and romantic developments. Ms. Winckler kept things from getting too ‘cheesy’ by sprinkling in enough drama and emotion to keep things interesting. Add in a cute little boy with a special Christmas wish- and the story takes a charming, and endearing turn.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Elsa Winckler!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging festive contemporary romance which kept me happily turning the pages. Having read and enjoyed the previous books in the series I was looking forward to returning to Marietta, Montana and ‘catching up’ with the millers, however it can also be read as a standalone story. Single Mum Riley O’Sullivan lives in Portland with her young son Dylan, she isn’t one to complain and definitely does not believe in miracles, even at Christmas. Having traveled to Marietta to spend Christmas with her family, the last thing she needs is maddening Mitch Miller coming to her rescue and surprisingly awakening her senses. Mitch moved to the small town with his two sisters having left a successful financial career behind him, but he’s definitely not looking for love, until Riley. Riley seems to captivate him like no woman ever has, of course she thinks he’s overprotective and a grinch.
Meanwhile Riley is also having to deal with Dylan asking questions about Dads and what they do. Mitch thinks that both mother and son could do with a little Christmas magic, not thinking that he could be about to loose his heart to them both. Neither Riley or Mitch know that Dylan made a Christmas wish, which if it comes true will bring them all together, as a Christmas miracle! As usual the descriptive narrative brings the characters and the wonderful Marietta vividly to life, including the small town feel. The chemistry between Riley and Mitch really came across in the narrative, and I loved the relationship development between both them and Dylan. This was a perfect book to read to get into the Christmas spirit!
