Pepper Basham

Celebrate Christmas through a story set in 1913 England that is packed with history, romance, mystery, and some good old-fashioned humor.

What a delightful book.

I loved the entire cast of characters. I loved all the book references. I loved the major Lakeshire Park and Edenbrooke vibes. I loved the faith woven through on almost every page. I loved the marriage of convenience and the swoony romance. I loved that during the suspense scenes, the characters had me laughing so hard. I loved the happy ending.

I completely enjoyed the journey of this book. I don't always rave in book reviews, but this one was exactly written up my alley. I actually liked it better than Hope Between the Pages, because it didn't have the whole sad thread.

I thought some of the descriptors at the beginning got repetitive when talking about Grace's authenticity but that's really the only con I can think of, and I feel like I'm stretching to even mention it.

Well done, Pepper. I loved this one and already preordered it for a friend.

Younger readers who prefer not to know that married people enjoy sleeping together will probably find too many mentions to such bliss in this book. Please don't read it rather than read it and complain about that.

I received an ecopy of this book from the publisher and Netgalley for honest review and all opinions are my own.
