Welcome to Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains, the home of physical therapist Hannah Walker. She has a new client, a former professional athlete by the name of Grady O’Neill, who has had knee replacement surgery. He checked himself out of the hospital early and is very obviously not taking care of himself at home. Hannah finds him in a grumpy mood due to his lack of mobility.

However, underneath that rough exterior, Grady finds himself attracted to Hannah. She is also
finding it necessary to remember that he is a patient and not a friend. But as time goes on, they both find it harder to keep the two separated. This becomes even more difficult as Hannah discovers his soft side when she finds out that he has gone outside to help a dog who has newborn puppies. She is also an animal lover and volunteers at a small local no kill shelter.

When Grady completes his physical therapy, the two go their separate ways. Hannah continues her daily routine working and at the shelter. But what plans has Grady made for his future?

You need to read this clean romance to find out what the future holds for Hannah, Grady, and the animal shelter!

It is a short novella, so is a wonderful book to pick up if you don’t have a lot of spare time. My only reservation is that I noticed several errors, but they did not serve as a deterrent to me enjoying the story.… (más)

Sweet Christmas Kisses 5
Sweet Peppermint Kisses by Josie Riviera
Chiara Johnson is driving to her new employment-a woman who has suffered some injuries from a horse fall.
The horse escaped from the fence area and ran out into the street and the boys in the car were injured and she stopped to help them out. She's late for her interview so the local cop escorts her to explain why she's sho late..
Gertrude is the woman healing from her injuries and her brother Vance is the one in charge. He is writing an app about dating-she's gotten burned once from using one in the past. He takes a liking to her and he's allowed her to dress up the place with holiday decorations.
Love the idea of the book club-and there's only 2! Love hearing how they repurpose items around the house.
She is also physically attracted to him and he wants her to bring her younger sister to help them celebrate the holidays. The family never celebrated...the grandparents always just maintained the horse farm and house to do anything else.
Misunderstandings and jealousy and her sister is missing-she fears heading to the ice that's not frozen yet... Like hearing how they celebrate with the children, what a treasure.
Love how the book got it's name and also the recipe at the end. Surprise ending.
Note from the author is included about the book. Great short story, can't wait to try the treats!
Recieved this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.

Ghosts From Christmas Past by Mary Alford
Was a bit leery about reading because I really don't like scary ghost stories but thought I'd give this new to me author a try.
WOW what an exc story. Starts out with blackness and she has to force herself out of it. Charlotte is now awake from the coma of 8 years when she and her parents were in an accident before Christmas.
She has no memory of anything, not even her name. Story also follows Dylan and she senses after seeing him that they do know one another.
She's not sure how much they share or have in the past but she's willing to find out. Love patience he has with her. Others have told him, the sheriff it's time to move on and divorce her as she may never come out of the coma.
Love hearing of the locale-we will be traveling to Colorado next May. Wasn't as scary a story as I had thought it would be. Love how she finds out about her past and the epilogue is priceless. Other works by the author are highlighted at the end.
Would love to read more of this author.

The Mistletoe Bachelor Auction by Milou Koenings
Have read other works by this author and was excited for the invite to read this one.
Starts out with Rose, a model and she's in hiding and among her sister and friends. She's hiding because of the media that is hounding her.
Story also follows a fireman, Ryan and his friends set him up to be in the bachelor auction and Rose is to be a date for one of them.
We learn how Rose's brother is in charge and he wants to remake her business-set her up a perfume and makeup type business that will give his main company money in the long run.
Love that he doesn't know a thing about her and she tells him she's there to meet with a medical team to help with makeup on victims of terrible accidents or those with cancer.
She is donating her time to reading to children at library during the week before Christmas. Love hearing of the events of the town, Pine Grove.
