A beautiful Christmas story where love finds Lucky and Rachel even if they are not looking for it. Their story is sweet and emotional and pulls on your heartstrings, with rescue animals and family expectations and a HEA ending.

Such a beautiful seasonal read, this book is a warm hug on a cold night. Great characters, relatable with cute chemistry and an addictive read. Just the right amount of drama and tension and it’s a lovely heartwarming story. Looking for some sparkle this year, pick this up.

Thanks to the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

Jim "Lucky" Elliot is a farmer and rancher who dreams of one day opening a sanctuary for elderly and abused horses and donkeys. He meets waitress-turned-podcaster Rachel O'Rourke when her podcast on first kisses features his grandparents. She thinks that they're both dreamers and kindred spirits, but can Lucky break away from his family's expectations long enough to get what he wants?

Christmas at Sleigh Bell Farm is a cute holiday romance. It's short, light, and fun. Plus, it promotes the rescue and humane treatment of animals. It's a great little bit of holiday fluff, but it's not much more than that.
