I really enjoyed the sisterhood and found family aspect, especially the family lore of this one. But some of the characters’ personalities were just too far fetched.

I have made it a tradition for the past few years to read a Jenny Bayliss book to kick off my holiday season and it just starts my December off with so much warmth and joy! This book somehow made me fall even more in love with her work. This story of sisterhood and community was so beautiful. The characters are captivating and I was completely transported to Rowan Thorpe. There are romances and love rekindling, but I really liked that the focus was on the plethora of relationships that can exist when you are open to them.

The audio version is fantastic. Loved this for a winter solstice/Christmas read, Jenny Bayliss is such a gem!
Maybe a 4.5. I really loved this story. Such a fun and heartwarming Christmas story.
