5.0

This little novella had me from the dedication all the way to the very last page! I did NOT want to put this book down.

Full transparency, I received the second book in this series Starry Night Kisses as an ARC and was also sent the first one so I could catch up! 

Dedication ✨👇🏻

For everyone who believes in unexplainable miracles… 
…and second chances.

This book had me highlighting quotes/sections of the book from the very beginning! ✨ I was INVESTED!

Some of the notes I took in my highlighted sections:

• WOW. What a way to start a book!!!
• YES GIRL
• Bringing tears to my eyes and I literally just started reading…

This was my first time ever reading a D.L. Darby book and I was thoroughly impressed. I can’t tell you how excited I am to dive into the ARC I received as well as read more of her books. 

Peppermint Wishes is MAGICAL. ✨ I thought it was unique and fun! 🤩 I read it in the middle of January, but it’s the PERFECT holiday read. I may just need to reread it next Christmas because I had so much fun with it! 

At face value, it’s a short little Christmas novella with a hint of spice - but it’s really SO much more than that!! Our characters were there for each other when they needed it most and there was a TRUE Christmas Miracle in this book! It was sweet while also being heartbreaking. It was a TWIST that I did NOT see coming and I thoroughly enjoyed it! It made me DEVOUR the last several chapters of the book to know what happens! 

I loved this book! Well done, D.L. Darby!! I look forward to reading more of your work!! 😊✨📚
