Sierra Goodwin who does not like Christmas because of something that happened years ago ends up traveling with her friend and boyfriend to a town she never heard of. Turns out not only is she a third wheel with her friend but the town is a walking winter wonderland of Holiday cheer. On top of that, she runs into a man whom everyone in town calls Mister Snowman. She finds herself running into him more and begins to understand why and then he takes her to his Christmas tree farm where she begins to get a different feel of the holiday. This is a really good story with a very good ending as well.

This is a great book. The two main characters are Sierra and Ky. Sierra’s best friend invites her to go to a town that is having a winter festival. She goes with her friend and her friend’s boyfriend. She meets Ky who is a cousin to her best friend’s boyfriend. There is a mutual connection immediately. They each have some trust issues but together they work them out and fall n love.

Anyone in the mood for winter love stories? because this is the book that brings the best of the season.

Sierra hates Christmas, like HATE it, she agrees to go with her friends to a trip, only because is January and people has move on from it, they didn't so she is "trapped" in a City full of Christmas furniture, so she is ready to go back, until she meets Kylan, who is THE SWEETEST MAN THAT I HAVE EVER KNOWN, THIS TIME SHE IS THE GRUMPY ONE AND HE IS THE SUNSHINE.


I love it, the way that their relationship goes, wonderful , love it.

This is a new author for me and the start of a new series. I enjoyed it so much I hate waiting for book 2 in the Pinehill series!

Sierra and her best friend are headed to a 5 day spa vacation . At the last minute Rob, Jenn's boyfriend joins them. He's staying with his cousin Ky who's known as Mr Snowman.

Well as you can imagine Ky and Sierra hit it off and feel an immediate connection. What I enjoyed was that they built a friendship and didn't jump into a sexual relationship. Both Ky and Sierra have had disastrous previous relationships and are cautious.

As their vacation comes to a close, although they admit the closeness they just can't figure how to make it work long distance so they part. Flash ahead a couple of months to Valentine's Day and there's a surprise waiting for Sierra when Ky rings her doorbell. You're going to want to read it to find out what happens. It will be worth it.

I received a Free ARC eBook from Net Galley and the publisher in exchange for my honest opinions

This is what you'd expect it to be based on the cover, title, and description. I LOVE a good Hallmark story and this one didn't disappoint.

Sierra hates the holidays because of an ex. Ky is the small town boy that LOVES his town and the holidays. Their meeting is so cliché, but I couldn't help but smile and giggle.

Sweet, clean, and lovable story. I love the instant connection feel and the ease of their relationship.

Thank you NetGalley and publishers for the ARC

Sometimes you just need a romance that makes you want to pick up and move to the closest small town near you. This is that romance. I literally started to think of small towns within driving distance that I could go to, so I could find my Mr. Snowman and live happily ever after. It was such a cute and fluffy read, so low angst as to make it completely unbelievable and yet I loved it anyway. I feel like this should be optioned for Hallmark, and I'm a little surprised that it doesn't appear to be. Someone at Hallmark is clearly sleeping on the job. Wake up, Hallmark team! You have yourself a winner here.

Sierra Goodwin has hated Christmas, and the winter holiday season in general, ever since her fiance broke up with her on Christmas Eve at his office holiday party. Ever since then even the sight of a Christmas tree makes her want to run in the opposite direction. She thinks she's safe going with her roommate and her roommate's boyfriend to the small town of Pinehill in the middle of January - surely they have moved on from Christmas, right? Wrong. So wrong. The town is on the verge of their annual Winter Fest, and the holiday decorations are still alive and well. There's even a mini tree in her hotel room. The town is crowded, her boots that the shop swore were waterproof are soaked through, and she's ready to go home after just a few hours. Until she runs into Kylan Snow, or Mr. Snowman as the townspeople like to call him. Warm and friendly, he brightens her spirits considerably, and soon they're spending all their spare time together. Slowly the magic of the season is warming Sierra's frozen heart. But her time is short and she eventually needs to go home. Is five days really enough for them to make a connection strong enough to survive long distance? Or will this only be a holiday fling, before they each go back to their lives?

I'll be honest - normally romance stories with zero angst have me worried. They'll be boring, predictable, and I'll find myself waiting to finish so I can move on to something with more spice. However, that wasn't the case at all with this book! I was eager to keep reading, to see how their relationship developed, and I found myself forgetting that only a few days had passed in the story. Their connection felt soul-deep, and I had no problem whatsoever believing that their romance was built to last. Granted, I felt the ending was wrapped up a little too neatly, but again, sometimes you need a romance like that. Make me believe in soulmates, miracles and things that are meant to be. I love it! In a world of missed opportunities, it's nice to see two people who take what life has to offer and say anything is possible. Also, Kylan was just an absolute sweetheart, and his life was a literal dream. He owns a Christmas tree farm, complete with reindeer and an antique shop. He ANTIQUES. As a fellow antiquer, I fell in love on the spot. I was already halfway in love already, but the antiques sealed the deal. Now where can I find a man like that? I just need the name of the town, and I will go make my happy ever after happen.

This was the first book I read by this author, and it will certainly not be my last! I thoroughly enjoyed this story, and I can't wait to read her next small town romance.

Ky and Sierra met and fell quickly. He loves Christmas her not so much until he shows her what can be. A fun story for a cold afternoon

The Snowman's Sweetheart was a short, cute and sweet read.
I've enjoyed reading about Sierra and Kylan and their love at first sight,I was hooked from beginning to end.

Sierra hates all festive things since her boyfriend broke her heart on Christmas Eve, but she didn't know that there was a Winter Festival in Pinehill before she booked a relaxing weekend with her best friend there. When she finds out she becomes surly until she bumbs in a stranger's chest. Kylan is considered the Mr. Snowman of the little town, he owns a Christmas Tree farm and gift shop. Will he make Sierra enjoy her weekend?

Sierra and Kylan fell instantly in love but their relationship doesn't feel rushed. They feel instantly connected, but their friendship gradually grows, destroying their emotional defenses little by little.

I recommend it, but I would've been really happy to read an epilogue about our lovely couple.

If anyone is looking for a Hallmark-esque holiday movie in book form, then I would read The Snowman’s Sweetheart by Shanna Hatfield.
It’s an adorable, quick, opposites attract, where the holiday Grinch of a heroine finds love at first sight when she literally runs into the small town’s holiday lover of a hero nicknamed Mr. Snowman.
Pinehill seems like the perfect town full of holiday spirit along with continuous charming winter filled events that bring out the cheer in family, friends, neighbors & maybe even the holiday Grinch.
I personally want to go visit this fictional town. & this was the perfect dose of holiday cheer I needed. I would also be interested in reading Bo’s story!
The ending was a little much for my logical leaning brain, but I suppose when you know, you know. & cheers to love!
Rating: 3.5 Stars

Sierra Goodwin is not in the Christmas mood. Her fiancé dumped her on Christmas eve last year. So, this year she has not allowed her roommate to do any decorating. Sierra and Jenn take a trip in January to a winter fest. Jenn's boyfriend cousin lives in the area. When Kylan Snow meets Sierra, he is smitten, and she is too. Can Sierra find her happiness in this small town with Mr. Snowman? I enjoyed this short clean read.

This is isn't just a book about Christmas, I read this in February 22 and I enjoyed it so much that I didn't want it to end. A real romcom and a wonderful story to go with it. I will be looking for other books by this author as if this is anything to go by her works must be fantastic. Although this is a Christmas setting the events happen in January. Great read and I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

Thanks to Netgalley and publisher for this ARC

What a really lovely, romantic read. Sierra really doesn’t like Christmas anymore but is thrown right back into it when she goes away for the weekend with her roommate Jenn and her boyfriend Rob. They meet up with Rob’s cousin Kylan Snow and the sparks fly! Loved the characters and heartwarming story line. Just lovely and makes me want to visit Pinehill myself! Thank you to Netgalley and Xpresso Book Tours for the read. Will definitely be looking out for more books by Shanna Hatfield
