Book Review: Snowflakes and Stockings (book 4 in the Wilton Hills Christmas series)
Author: Marianne Rice
FIVE STARS
Ok so I have fallen in love with this series. I found them quite by accident and binge read them ALL in just a week. Quick reads and oh so much fun. The Johnson family is amazing and I love them all. Each book in this series can be read as a stand alone, however you will NOT be disappointed if you read them all in order. Each book builds on the last, but like I said, you can read just one. If you do read book 4 before any other the others, you will get details about the other characters from previous books.
With that all being said. Liberty and Sawyer, CHEMISTRY from the onset. It was a fantastic story and oh my, I didn’t want it to end!

This book had me at Christmas. Liberty and Sawyer are both workaholics. She’s a reporter trying to find out the secret Santa and he’s on her list to interview. I love the attraction between the two but can they make it work? This was a great read and perfect to get you in the mood for the upcoming holiday season. I haven’t read any other books in this series but I may have to!

I absolutely loved everything about this book. A perfect fit of this genre. The sweet building romance, the large loving family and holiday traditions both open and secret. Sawyer and Liberty had great chemistry. How could you not fall in love with Sawyer? He is thoughtful considerations and ability to assimilate into the Johnson family despite his tragic history was beautifully crafted. I am so glad with how the ending transpired. I definitely will be reading the other books in this series when it gets closer to December. This book was a cozy, holiday romance perfect for those that love this genre.

I love a good holiday book and this one did not disappoint. This is the first book I have read in the series and I now NEED to go back and read the others! Liberty is an investigative reporter and is looking for Maine’s Secret Santa. She meets Sawyer Campbell, who owns and runs a huge technology company and she thinks he may be the Secret Santa. The story is light, fun, romantic, and funny. I loved every character in the book and I want to sit down for family dinners at the Johnson house.

This is not my first book by this author but it is my favorite by her yet. This is a great holiday story that is written with a lot of heart and spirit. This is a romance story that kept me engaged to the end. This is a fast paced story where the characters are not only relatable but they also gave life to the story. This is a well written story that pulled in me from the beginning. This is a story about Liberty and Sawyer. She is one case away from getting a big promotion. She is in search of a Secret Santa. She has her list down to a couple possibilities and Sawyer just happens to be one of them. As the holiday approaches she is left with a decision, should she follow her lead or her heart? I enjoyed their chemistry and what they brought to the story. They made the story fun and entertaining to read. This is a great holiday story that will put you in the mood for the coming holidays. I highly recommend this book.

“Snowflakes & Stockings” by Marianne Rice is a holiday romance novel. Liberty is an investigative reporter, who has been assigned to discovering Maine’s Secret Santa. Her search leads her to Sawyer, co-owner of a very successful tech company. There is immediate attraction, and she is soon introducing him to her large family. I loved the very relatable family gathering scenes in this book. The sibling banter and teasing warmed my heart, and gave us a better glimpse of Liberty and Sawyer’s personalities. This is the fourth book in the Wilton Hills Christmas series, but can be read as a stand-alone book.

This is a beautiful festive romance. I really loved how the author creates the scene and her descriptions and character building is amazing. Both our character are completely loveable and both from different ends of the track.

Liberty is a journalist who is career focused and driven to succeed. With her career as a journalist and her family she doesn’t have time for dating. She’s now on the hunt for the secret Santa Claus that keeps making huge donations. When she goes to interview one suspected person she doesn’t expect to feel the spark and connection between them.

Sawyer is a successful businessman. His family life is non existant so he throws himself into his work. Dating is never on his agenda until he meet Liberty and all he wants to do is make room for her in his life.

As their connection grows and they get closer they both make sacrifices with their work. Will Liberty make the ultimate sacrifice of not running her breaking story for the sake of being with the man she love or will her feelings for Sawyer not matter in her pursuit for the big break.

This was an incredibly romantic and comforting romance read! This is the first book by this author that I’ve read so I can honestly say that this book can be read as a standalone as I had no problem jumping into this one, but now that I’ve read this one, I am really looking forward to starting this series from the beginning.

This was a great heartwarming, sweet, witty romance, the characters were so easy to relate too which helped keep me captivated and intrigued the whole way through.

I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone looking for their next cozy romance read!

Stockings and Snowflakes by Marianne Rice is a wonderful Christmas story. Liberty is a journalist who has been trying for many years to discover who Maine’s Secret Santa might be. Sawyer is a CEO of a well known company who Liberty believes might be the Secret Santa until she interviews him and discovers his lack of Christmas Spirit. The two end up having a few non-dates because each keeps being interrupted by work. This book had me all in my Christmas warm and cozy feelings.

I’m such a mess when it comes to sappy, snow covered love stories, such as this one. I am one of those girls that sits down with Hallmark movies on repeat, binge watch sappy chick flicks, and soak up any fast-paced romance novel I can get my hands on. Snowflakes and Stockings by Marianne Rice falls into this category, and I read this book from start to finish this past Saturday. It was rainy (unfortunately not snowy,) and gloomy and I sat by my fire and read. I laughed, teared up, and felt my heart warm throughout Liberty and Sawyers relationship, along with their respective families.

I completely understand the craziness that big families bring to the holidays, and was swept up in all the feels, and memories that this novel brought forward. Because of COVID-19, our family hasn’t had the chance to have a big gathering in what seems like forever, and it was nice to live vicariously through the Johnson family. I will certainly be picking up the rest of the Wilton Hills Christmas Book series, and am sure will be reading lots more by Ms. Rice. Thank you for this Hallmark worthy read, have recommended already!

Sweet holiday romance with a great story line
This book focussed on Liberty and Sawyer, a very level-headed couple which kept the story very real. Sawyer’s story is pretty sad and the way Liberty supports him was sweet. I loved the big personalities of the Johnson Clan and how the family is so close. A brilliant addition to the series.

This is the fourth book in this series that I have read and just as with the previous books, I was in love with this one as well. I want this type of Christmas to happen to me. Just once. However, this makes me feel like I am getting just that experience. I loved that the main characters both experienced different upbrings regarding their families and how they celebrate the holidays. I felt like this made their stories that much more meaningful, especially considering they are both complete opposites but one in the same. I love reading Christmas stories before the holidays as they really start to put me into the season. I look forward to reading more of these books.

This is my first Christmas Book of 2021. I always read as many as I can every year and I’m so glad this was my first. I love when a relationship takes time to build and when there’s obstacles along the way. I enjoyed the investigative part as well and thought it added an interesting twist to the story.

I loved both Liberty and Sawyer and watching the Christmas Spirit work throughout this story put me in holiday mode and I highly recommend picking this one up.

This is my first book by this author and it seems to be a complete standalone even as its book 4 in the series. I will definitely be going back and grabbing the others!

Loved it!!

Snowflakes and Stockings is book four in the Wilton Hills Christmas series by Marianne Rice. This story was well presented and thought out. The characters are solid and very entertaining. The story flows along nicely and it was very easy to forget the world and escape reality for a little while. Mystery, mayhem and excitement seemed to follow Liberty and she was so easy to like. Her personality was endearing and her tenacity and determination, and her love for her loud family was immeasurable. Sawyer was a little harder to get to know. He definitely was the bigger mystery. It was honestly a real pleasure to pick at his personality and idiosyncrasies. The romance between them was spicy and hot. Chemistry was at an all time high and I found I had trouble putting this one down. An edgy entertainer filled with laughs and healthy tension. 4 stars.

Snowflakes & Stockings (A Wilton Hills Christmas Book 4) by Marianne Rice
Genre – holiday romance, contemporary romance, clean and wholesome
Page Count – 130 pages
Cover Designer – Wicked by Design

It might not be the story of the century, but it’s her biggest headline yet.
Investigative reporter Liberty Johnson has one more case to crack before being guaranteed her own weekly feature on the local nightly news. The only thing coming between her and the promotion is figuring out the identity of Maine’s Secret Santa.
She’s narrowed down the possibilities, and the last on her short list is Sawyer Campbell, the co-owner of a Fortune 500 tech company. Her first meeting with him leaves her weak in her knees, but his lack of interest in Christmas tells her he definitely isn’t the man she’s been looking for.
There’s no denying the sparks between them, and Sawyer’s charm has her juggling her time between him and her work. If she isn’t careful, he’ll have her career-focused heart before she has a chance to cue her mic.
As Christmas approaches and her promotion on the line, Liberty must decide if she’s going to follow her lead or follow her heart.

Where There's Hope (A Well Paired Novel, #2)Where There’s Hope by Marianne Rice
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Where There’s Hope is the second book in the Well Paired Series by Marianne Rice. This is a contemporary romance- about second chances, forgiveness, redemption, responsibility, and finding love. This is my first book by Ms. Rice, but it certainly won’t be my last. This book can be read as a standalone, which is what I did, but I will definitely be going back to read the first book now, too.
Hope Windward has managed to make a comfortable life for herself and her daughter. She is a strong, independent single parent who has done a wonderful job raising her daughter on her own after tragedy struck. Now the man responsible for upending their lives is back in town, which makes her angry- she’s not happy to have him there.
Cameron Smithfield has spent 10 years in prison paying for what he did. Now he wants to atone for what happened by becoming the best uncle he can for his niece. He holds a lot of pain and grief over the event that shattered so many lives. He hopes that he will get a chance to prove himself. But what happens when feelings develop? Will she ever be able to forgive him for what happened? Will she admit her own feelings? When the time comes, and doubts arise, will she trust in him?
This is a very enjoyable, steamy story that I am happy to recommend as a great feelgood story with a few surprises.
I am looking forward to reading more of Ms. Rice’s work.

Thank you, Ms. Rice!

Where There's Hope (A Well Paired Novel, #2)Where There’s Hope by Marianne Rice
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Where There’s Hope (A Well Paired Novel) by Marianne Rice is a wonderful  contemporary romance story. It is a love story where redemption and forgiveness can  soothe the soul. It’s a love story that means trust and the truth could mean second  chances may be possible and heal old wounds. It is a sad and beautiful story that I  found hard to put down and when I did I was thinking about how soon I could get back  to it. I loved this story. The characters are so well written that I could feel their pain,  their torture, their love and their emotions. I fell in love with them and Marianne has  created a lovely story that should not be missed. I look forward to reading more from  this author.
