A cozy Christmas read. I love Jenny Bayliss’s Christmas novels. They have more depth than your typical meet-cute, sugary sweet romance. Jenny delves into the lives of her side characters as well as her main characters, so the relationships feel real and familiar. 
This isn’t a superficial Hallmark-like story. There is humor, conflict, friendships, and romance. It is definitely worth a read. 

Audiobook narrator Elizabeth Knowelden is perfection (even at 1.5x). I look forward to listening to more of her work— and she has narrated a LOT that are already in my list!
