A Golden Christmas by Maya Alden
4.0
“It had been months since I first saw her, first fell under her spell.”
Don’t let this absolutely beautiful cover fool you! This book is more than just your typical holiday age-gap romance. It has the sweetest moments, suspense, and even a murder mystery that will leave readers stunned.
Isadora is such a relatable character. She’s young, ambitious, and knows exactly what she wants in life. She does everything in her power to achieve her goals, which is evident in the way she runs her business. I absolutely love her character and her determination. Gordon is different than most main characters. While he still has a roughness to him, he’s very sweet and often gets flustered around Isadora. Their relationship is very fast paced, taking place over a few months. Despite their rocky start, fate continues to bring them together, amplifying their chemistry.
The suspenseful portion of the plot was super interesting. Fans of Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot, will find themselves loving this novel. Isadora being a huge fan of Agatha Christie herself becomes the detective in the case (even though there is a detective on sight). She uses her knowledge and love of mysteries to find clues and solve the murder.
I highly recommend this book for readers looking for a fast-paced, suspenseful holiday romance!!!
