Christmas on Conrad Street is the second book in the Misty Harbor series. After reading the first book in the series, I was anxious to read about the twin vikings, Erik and Gunnar. In this book we get two romances for the price of one!
I loved the story between Erik and Sydney. They were a perfect match for each other and I felt the chemistry between the two as soon as the met. Their romance was sweet and caring. I also loved how the author made sure to include the characters from the previous book and the characters from books to come in this series. The writing was fun and the scene setups were cute. I actually felt like I was in Misty Harbor for Christmas.
The only drawback I had with this book is the story of Gunnar and Maggie. I felt that their romance was forced and we didn't get to see their relationship blossom like we did with Erik and Sydney. I feel the author should have left their romance for another book in the series instead of trying to incorporate it into this one.
Overall a quick and cute Christmas read for the holiday season. Even though this is the second book in the series, the author does a wonderful job of letting the reader have this as a stand alone book. Everything, including the characters relationships, are explained without the over abundance of details.

It was a touch too light for my taste. It was so predictable, I found it difficult to keep interested after reading about half of the book. The characters are a little too simplistic and not very mature. I liked the first book of the series, so perhaps I was just not in the mood for this one.
