I downloaded this a while back, and decided to read it recently, without realizing it was a Christmas story, so I just missed the season. LOL Feels Like Home is a charming contemporary romance novella, with likable characters including a musician hero who won my heart when he baked the heroine’s favorite cookies for her. The heroine’s parents are also entertaining and lovable.

The conflict is all family drama, with no real villain - maybe one character I wanted to smack, but she finally does the right thing. Everyone is happy with the happy ending. The story feels kind of lightweight, but I like a warm fuzzy read once in a while. The point of view switches between the hero and heroine, like most romances, but is unusual in that both are in first person. The dual first person didn’t bother me, but if I know some people dislike it.

Recommended if you want one last cozy taste of Christmas decorations and cookie baking before moving into the new year, or if you generally feel like reading a lighter, shorter contemporary romance with explicit, steamy sex scenes.

Feels Like Home is a free download on all major ebook platforms.

All I can say is aww, I loved it!
A sweet and very sexy love story of unrequited love finally fulfilled, but not without a few unexpected twists and turns. Definitely a feel good story, with not a baddie in sight. Conflict is provided by people who don’t want to hurt each other. Cecelia always had a crush on Will, but when her older sister started going out with him, she bowed out gracefully. A family Christmas six years later brings the two back together, and the spark remains.
