Review: "Christmas Carol" by Michele Gorman

One winter wedding, two happy couples, three ex-boyfriends. And a very uncomfortable weekend.
Carol hates Christmas. Being recently dumped, she's not crazy about weddings either. So her sister Marley's nuptials, over the Christmas weekend, are making her positively Scrooge-like. When she arrives for the weekend at the stately home in rural Scotland to find her three ex-boyfriends in attendance, Carol has no choice but to face her ghosts to discover what really happened in those relationships, learning a lot about herself in the process. As the snow falls outside and the fire crackles in the hearth, might one of the wedding guests become the harbinger of Christmases to come?

My review: I thoroughly enjoyed this creative Christmas novella! Gorman has been a favourite author or mine since I read her debut book and this novella did not disappoint. It had all of the elements crucial to a great story: drama, lovable characters, and the essential happy ending. I loved the wedding theme too- I'm a sucker for a good wedding!!
I recommend this to anyone looking for a great read to get them in the holiday mood, and it would make the perfect gift as well. Priced at less than a cup of coffee, it's a steal!

    1. I haven't read her books. Sounds like I need to give them a try!

      1. Her books are a lot of fun! I was actually sad when her last series ended because I had to say "good-bye" to the characters!
