The Billionaire Cowgirl's Christmas by Kris Bock

 


I really enjoyed this story of love finding its way to another couple. Ava is a lovely, caring woman who raised four fine sons after her husband’s death. Not one to really think about finding love again, she is taken aback when she meets North and is attracted to her. He is also encountering chemistry with Ava and is careful in his pursuit of her.

 A simply adorable story of romance and love.




Christmas at Embthwaite Farm by Kate Hewitt

 


A charming and enchanting story for Christmas or anytime. The relationship that blooms between Harriet and Quinn is based on similar experiences with their fathers: Harriet’s father treated her with a strong dislike and Quinn’s father repeatedly told him he was useless. Both Harriet and Quinn see something special in each other that rises above the past hurts and reaches to a brighter future.

The Book of Fire by Christi Leftieri

 


A devastating, uncontrolled fire races down the hills of a small Greek town ravaging forest, homes and lives. The Book of Fire is a compelling drama of life after the devastation for Irini, Tasso, and their daughter. Within the story of the aftermath is Irini’s journaling her story of the events during the fire and of its effects on her and her family. A tragic story, beautifully written to convey a shard of hope within the hopelessness of destruction.




The Good Part by Sophie Cousens

 


I found I did not want The Good Part to end because it was so very interesting and I fell in love with the characters of Lucy, Sam, Felix, and Amy. The story is that twenty-six year old Lucy is fed up with her living conditions and her job. All her best friends have advanced in their careers but Lucy feels stuck. After an evening of two many drinks and a horrible meetup, she finds shelter from the rain in a small shop. In the shop is a wishing machine and Lucy makes a wish of a lifetime and everything changes for her. It is a truly marvelous novel.
