I have to wonder if there’s a growing trend toward lighter, less meaty books in the romance genre. I did enjoy the book, but in the way I might enjoy a sorbet: it’s sweet, but not filling. Which is both a pity and a surprise, since Kleypas is one of the better writers of historical romance out there. Three people who are about to discover that Christmas is the time of year when anything is possible, and when wishes have a way of finding the path home… ReviewĬhristmas Eve at Friday Harbor is a sweet, feel-good, light contemporary romance-and more of a novella than a novel. Had I purchased it in hardcover, I would have been slightly disappointed, both by the length and by the lack of…intensity, for want of a better word. There’s very little conflict here, very little for the characters to resolve. And when she meets Holly Nolan, she sees a little girl in desperate need of a little magic. As the owner of a toy shop, she lives what she loves. But she does believe in the magic of imagination. Maggie Collins doesn’t dare believe in love again, after losing her husband of one year.
His sister’s will gives him the instructions: There’s no other choice but you. But he soon realizes that he will do everything he can to make her life whole again. The last thing Mark Nolan needs is a six-year-old girl in his life. And since that night, she has never again spoken a word. One rain-slicked night, six-year-old Holly lost the only parent she knew, her beloved mother Victoria.
