Heartwarming and delightful, perfect for Christmas. A Louisiana Christmas to Remeber is three stories of woman in the same family. I loved most how seamlessly they flowed together to make a great novel. I'd love to read more stories in this form blended together.

This is a beautifully written story by three authors, and as one story ended the next starts seamlessly!

We have a spunky Grandmother about to reach her 80th birthday, her daughter Adale, and her daughter Jolene and niece Mattie. These delightful, talented women will warm your heart, and they share their lives and thoughts with us.

These women love their town and are descendants of the founder, and now they are helping to restore the Chapel that was damaged in a hurricane.

This is a story of forgiveness, and it resonates throughout, and we are gifted some sweet love stories.

A very enjoyable read!

This is a series of three contemporary romances based around three females within the same family grouping. The timeline leads up till Christmas in a town called Moreau with themes such as forgiveness, letting go of the past, trust and communication.

Granny was a hilarious side character and the matriarch of her family. Her relationship with a chef also made a great small side story. I have to say the food sounded really good with this book and wished I could be trying some of the dishes as I read the stories.

I receive complimentary books for various sources including, Netgalley, Authors, and other such sources. I am not required to write a positive review and have not received compensation.

Enjoyed this book. Three stories written by different authors but the books connected with each other. The first was A Louisiana snow by Morgan Tarpley Smith. This is the story of Mattie who had a lot of hardship in her life. A beautiful story of forgiving and finding love. Restoring Christmas by Betsy St, Amant. This is the story of Jolene, Matties cousin this is a story of finding peace and belonging. A Christmas reunion by Lenora Worth. This is the story of Adale she is Jolene's mother. This is the story of forgiveness and restoring love. Loved the characters in the book. My favorite was Granny.

This is a delightful, heartwarming story that takes place in the small town of Moreau, Louisiana. There are three separate stories; A Louisiana Snow by Morgan Tarpley Smith; Restoring Christmas, by Betsy Amant and A Christmas Reunion by Lenora Wroth. The stories are all connected and pickup where the previous one left off.

The interesting cast of characters remain the same in all three stories, however, each one focuses on one of the three main characters, Mattie, Jolene, and Adale, who is a widow and mother to Jolene and Mattie’s aunt. They are all descendants of the founding family of Moreau. The constant in each of these heartfelt stories is Granny, who is celebrating her 80th birthday and whose lively spirit keeps things interesting and moving right along.

These are beautifully written, captivating stories that address friendship, love, forgiveness, restoration and second chances. During the busyness of the Christmas season, the charming town of Moreau is the perfect place to visit and enjoy the celebration of Christmas with Granny, Adale, Jolene, and Maddie.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
