A Light in the Window by Julie Lessman ~ Review

A Light in the Window: An Irish Christmas Love Story
My Review: A page turning romance from the pen of Julie Lessman.

Marceline is an upright young woman, who is well aware of the kind of young man that she doesn't want in her life, but the two men vying for her hand are anything but the godly man she hopes to find someday.
Patrick O'Connor & Sam O'Rourke are both determined to win her heart, but who, if either, will win her heart?

I absolutely loved this O'Connor Saga sequel, it was so fun seeing Marcy and Patrick as they were when they were young. I absolutely loved seeing Marcy younger, and I loved how she had God at the center in her life and wanted her romance to be God scripted.

Even if you sort of know how it's going to turn out (like if you've read any of the books in the O'Connor saga) I can pretty much guarantee that this lovely novella will still intrigue you with its many twists and sweet turns.

I loved the characters even more after seeing them as they were earlier in their lives, and I loved meeting new ones too! Every single one of them was so well developed, I really liked little Tillie, she was such a brave, spunky little soul, and I just wanted give her a big hug!

A Light in the Window is a lovely Christmas tale, with a Julie Lessman flare. I had a hard time not being late for work, because it was so hard to put down! Definitely one of my favorite O'Connor stories! I HIGHLY recommend!

I received an ecopy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. Thanks!
