A review by desiree_mcl
Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor by Lisa Kleypas

3.0

3.5 stars.

This was a cute start to the series. And also my first contemporary romance by LK. I've stuck exclusively to LK's historical romance.

I really liked Holly and Maggie and I loved the family scenes with Mark, Sam, and Holly. I liked that Shelby, Mark's girlfriend, wasn't this awful person, even though I don't like how she handled

but beside that I had no problems with her.

My only two major issues were that Mark was still with Shelby for the bulk of the book, if this had been longer it wouldn't have bothered me that they broke up at around page

, but because this book is only 211 pages it bothered me. Also the other issue was that this wasn't long enough.

I am looking forward to the other books in the series. Especially Alex's.
