A Christmas to Remember

A Christmas to Remember by Lisa Kleypas, Lorraine Heath, Megan Frampton, and Vivienne Lorret

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a delightful read overall. 

Lisa Kleypas and Megan Frampton's novellas were probably my favorites. Each novella contained a full story despite being a novella and therefore shorter. I didn't feel like there was much as far as the Christmas theme went beyond each story mentioning it was that time of year. Still, I enjoyed reading each story.

A Talent for Temptation by Sabrina Jeffries

A Talent for Temptation by Sabrina Jeffries

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I feel a bit like I have whiplash because the story was so short but I enjoyed it regardless. I liked both main characters even if I didn't get to know them well. There's a pretty quick resolution to the problems but with only around 100 pages (according to Goodreads) it's not surprising. 

Looking forward to seeing the stubborn and secretive Baron Fulkham meet his match in the next title!!

The Scotsman Who Saved Me by Hannah Howell

The Scotsman Who Saved Me by Hannah Howell

⭐️

I don't think Hannah Howell's writing is for me. This is the second or third title of hers I've tried and couldn't finish. 

Based on the blurb, I expected a novel with a lot of action. Instead I got one that was crawling along with very little happening. I was forcing myself to read because there wasn't really anything bringing me back to the book. 

The tone was also a bit weird to me. Emily got sick of Iain's constant kissing her and then being cold and so did I. 

Not sure if I'll be trying the next book or not.
