4.5 stars
Kelly Bowen has become my favorite historical romance author
and her books and story always have interesting, likable characters and intricate
storylines. This is only a novella but I
was still invested in these characters by the end. Both of these characters who are artists with
difficulty practicing their craft. One
is held back by her gender and the other by his social status. I will say that Kelly Bowen needs to write
King’s book and soon because he is one side character in many of her books who
deserves his own story. I received this
from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
With This Christmas Ring by Manda Collins
3.5 stars
Merry and Alex were engaged five years ago, until Merry called off the engagement unexpectedly and immersed herself as her scholarly father’s apprentice. Now they are thrown together as the well-being of an infant is on the line and they are forced to reconcile their past. Set around the Christmas season, this book is a sweet novella for the holidays. I’ve read several of this author’s historical romances and they are dependably fun to read. There was quite a bit crammed into this short book so it at times seemed too rushed but it’s an enjoyable seasonal read. I received a digital ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
The Christmas Cowboy Hero by Donna Grant
3.5 stars
Abby is struggling to get by, raising her teenage brothers on her own, when one of them gets arrested for stealing cattle. Clayton has avoided going home to his family ranch because of all the pain of his past, at the ranch and as a Navy SEAL. When he finally heads home to catch a cattle thief, he instead finds Abby and a hope for a new beginning. This is a sweet story with likable characters. Clayton portrays a bit of the generic, strong, do no wrong, protective type hero, but overall I really did enjoy this Christmas romance. I received a digital ARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for a honest review.
