The Christmas Dress by Courtney Cole
3.0
A magical dress that fits everyone, and that still looks great decades later. More women's fiction than romance.
Meg inherits a building that is crumbling. People are upset when she does show up, cos hello, things to fix. But Meg is the sweetest, nicest person ever ( I would just have sold that money pit at once.) She tries to help, to fix, and to figure out what to do with her life.
She is also very self sacrificing. She meets this great guy, but is ready to give him up because she thinks she knows best (she does not). She broke up with someone (he was not for her), and she seems very cool with her best friend seconds later asking if she can date him. Wait until the body is cold. That feels like a really strange friendship.
But yes Meg is really nice, she would be the best friend anyone could have.
A little sidestory about the dress and its previous owner, Ellie is in here too.
But is mostly about saving this building, falling for someone (not a romance book though.) And meeting a new family.
A nice little Christmas book.
Good narration, and good voices for the whole cast.
