Christmas Wish by Melanie Shawn (a novella in the Hope Falls Series) stars Kyle Austin Reed, movie star extraordinaire. At a meet and greet at a hospital with a young fan, Angel, Kyle is stunned by the beauty of the girl’s mother, Aurora. Since the accident that killed her husband and left her daughter a paraplegic, Aurora has lived a difficult life, barely scrapping by to make ends meet. On the morning that Angel was to be released from the hospital, Aurora was fired and evicted. Enter our hero, Kyle. He happened to go to the hospital to check on them, finds out the news, and offers them a place to live for a while, his home in Hope Falls.
This is a love at first sight story. Kyle wants to do anything he can for Aurora to make her life easier and provide a better quality of health care for Angel. Aurora has taken care of herself and Angel for so long she is unsure of trusting what Kyle is offering. Kyle has to figure out how to convince Aurora of his feelings and intent. Without spoiling anything, Aurora, Kyle and Angel find their way to a happily ever after.
I enjoyed Christmas Wish and was pleased with the way Melanie Shawn found a true love for Hope Falls’ favorite movie star and the way the town adopted Aurora and Angel. I highly recommend this book and am looking forward to reading the next story of the Hope Falls series.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A quick read
I enjoyed this more than I’d thought I would. In earlier Hope Falls’ books, I’d found Kyle somewhat annoying but I liked him in this.

I haven't read the other books in the series so maybe I didn't get the whole view of the characters, even though I think it was a good stand-alone book. Kyle becomes smitten with Aurora when visiting his biggest fan, her daughter, in the hospital. Angel is a huge movie fan and is adorable, full of energy and lots of movie opinions.
The relationship was a little quick to start but it was a good buildup. There were times when I think the story was a little two sweet, and not realistic as far as how they responded to certain situations. Overall though a quick and sweet romance story.

This was a first for me. I had heard of Melanie Shawn but I had not read any of her books. That will change. I now have two bundles waiting for me on my kindle and more to buy. I liked the idea of Hope Falls--a quaint close knit town. Even more enjoyable, was fact that many famous people lived among and were friendly with the towns people. Melanie sucked me into the town and I don't want to leave.
