25 Christmas Romance Reads for December
11.
A Family for Christmas by Mona Ingram
Synopsis:
Unlucky in love, Maddie LaRocque moves to Calgary at the urging of her college roommate. Maddie’s luck goes from bad to worse when she’s laid off from her job two months before Christmas. Undeterred, she sets up a gift wrapping business in the lobby of the Drummond Building in downtown Calgary where she meets Annie, a ten-year-old who has recently lost her parents.
When Maddie falls into the arms of the building’s maintenance man it looks as though her luck is changing, but she soon learns that Brent isn’t who she thought he was. Maddie’s roommate Lily hasn’t fared too well in the romance department either, having been used for her beauty and Asian heritage by a man in Calgary.
The moment Chase Drummond spots Lily, he’s stunned by her beauty, but Lily resists his advances, unwilling to have her heart broken by the most eligible bachelor in town.
Will a young orphan girl be able to convince the two women that love is the best gift of all this Christmas?
My Review: 3.5 out of 5
I enjoyed this romance, it is essentially 2 stories in one with Flatmates Maddie and Lily falling for brothers Brent and Chase.
It is a nice light romance, no heavy scenes, lots of misunderstandings, some drama and all the Christmas trimmings makes for a easy, quick read.
The chapters change from character to character, so the story does jump from couple to couple, but is easy to follow regardless as all the stories are intertwined.
Would I read the next in the series or another story by this Author?
Yes, I would read others by this author.
Would I recommend someone else to read this story?
Yes, if you are looking for an light, easy to read romance full of families and Christmas this is a good choice.
