Review: Christmas Town Homecoming

by Anna Adams, LeAnne Bristow, Beth Carpenter, Melinda Curtis, Liz Flaherty, Cheryl Harper, Claire McEwen, Leigh Riker, Anna J. Stewart & Cari Lynn Webb

This was a very enjoyable novella collection! Some of these authors have set other stories in Christmas Town, Maine before. But it is not necessary to have read any other Christmas Town stories to enjoy this collection.

One of the things that I really enjoyed about this collection is that the authors did a very good job of being consistent with details. The entire collection builds from one story to the next, with each one focusing on a romance between different characters in each novella. However, the characters who are home attending their ten year high school reunion interact throughout all of these stories. It made me feel like this was truly a reunion and that all of these people were either celebrating or dreading getting together with everyone.

The stories were creative and each one had a happily-ever-after. I also liked the over arching story involving the ring that was discovered in the time capsule. It was a very clever tie-in! This feel good collection is definitely one I recommend if you are looking for some Christmas themed reading.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Welcome back to Christmas Town, Maine!
This holiday season works its romantic magic during Christmas Town High School’s ten year class reunion.

It’s going to be a jam-packed holiday weekend for the returning class, beginning with preparations for the two day event – where a mysterious promise ring has been found in their time capsule – and culminating in a Reunion Ball – where something lost finally finds its home. No one’s expecting to discover love, but this is Christmas Town, where happily-ever-afters are delivered with holiday traditions, glowing twinkle lights, and tinsel.

Consider this your invitation to the reunion where you’ll have a front row seat next to some of the class’s most memorable members – the prom queen, the jock, the mean girl, the drama kid, the teacher’s pet, the bad boy, the math nerd, the girl most likely to succeed, and some of your favorite administrators. From start to finish, this collection of connected, sweet romances from Harlequin Heartwarming authors will warm your heart.

Compare this read to The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Inside, you’ll find stories featuring best friend to lovers, best friend’s older brother, teen crush, enemies to lovers, second chance, reunion, medical, and later in life romances.
