Christmas Roses by Amanda Cabot ~ Revell Blog Tour & Review

Christmas Roses

Lucie's Review:

Mark has spent the last two years of his life in search of the father that he never knew, until he find himself in a small Wyoming town, called Easton.
Ceilia is a widow, with a young daughter who hires Mark to do some odd jobs, at the boarding house that she runs.
Will Mark ever find the family that he is looking for?

Christmas Roses is a satisfying Christmas read, engaging with wonderfully wrought characters. I loved the many characters and how well they were developed, the fullness of the characters really brought the tight knit community to life.

I fell in love with the characters in this story. Mark was such a caring hero, who did his very best to make others' lives better. And there was such a sweetness to the story as well.

Christmas Roses is quite possibly the best Christmas novella I have ever read! I loved the Wyoming setting, and how Ms. Cabot incorporated humor that kept me smiling. Ceilia was a wonderful heroine who really had her head on straight and knew how to find good qualities in a man. All in all, an excellent Christmas tale, that I would happily recommend!

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!
