Christmas Roses by Amanda Cabot Book Review

Christmas Roses

From the publisher:

Celia Anderson doesn’t need anything for Christmas except a few more boarders, which are hard to come by in this small mining town. She certainly doesn’t have a husband on her Christmas wish list. But when a wandering carpenter finds lodging at her boarding house, she admits that she might remarry if she found the right man–the kind of man who would bring her roses for Christmas. It would take a miracle to get roses during a harsh Wyoming winter. But Christmas, after all, is the time for miracles . . .

 

My Review:

This was such a cute little Christmas tale.  I love little Christmas love stories that can be left out on the coffee table for all to read.

The author does a great job surprising the reader throughout the book with the characters.

I loved how Celia Anderson was a capable determined lady living in a time when survival was so much harder than it is now.  She was just a character that was easily liked and had a life that most people would crumble if they were in her shoes.  Made me like book even more!

This book is high on my list for Christmas stories for adults.

Blessings to you!  You are loved!
