Oh, Zara Ramm and her inability to pronounce wondering and wandering the right way around...

5 stars is the norm for St. Mary’s. This book did nothing to change that. Full stars. Can’t wait for the next installment.
That said, not exactly a Christmas plot, right?
Update: It has been a long day. 53% of the plot involved Santa.

Although this might not be as Christmassy as some of Jodi Taylor's other Christmas novellas, there is a children's Christmas party where Lieutenant Grint meets Simon, and that sets off a series of wild events in this charming novella. As always Jodi Taylor delivers both comedy and action in this fun, heart-touching, and adventurous story.
We get a great look at the real Lieutenant Grint. He might be a giant, intimidating brute, but he's a marshmallow inside. His quest to help Simon at risk of his career is touching. I love his relationship with Jane. My favorite quote: ‘Grint looked across at her and held her gaze for a long moment. Battered, bruised and in some considerable pain, he raised one amused eyebrow. Jane fell in love with him on the spot.’ So did we, Jane. So did we.
Five stars, of course, for another ride inside the St. Mary's/Time Police universe.

Jane fell in love with him on the spot.’ So did we, Jane. So did we.
Five stars, of course, for another ride inside the St. Mary's/Time Police universe.

Cannot beat a Jodi Taylor Time Police book (or Disaster Historians). Always a winner.
