This is a really fun collection! I loved reading everyone of these stories. They are all clean and full of romance. Each of these stories takes place around Christmas time in Europe. I loved how they are all very individual, from the intellectual Christmas of James and Olivia to the sea-faring romance of Michael and Sally and then to Sarah and Luis in Spain. I also really liked that in some of these you see things through the eyes of the men and in some you see things through the eyes of the women. Carla Kelly really is an amazing Regency Romance author, you will feel as though you have been transported to England or Spain in the 1800’s as you read all of these stories. These cute stories will definitely put you in a Christmas mood, so put on some music, put your feet up and enjoy them all!

Thanks for providing a review copy, I was not able to read this one. So I will not be leaving a review on social media at this time.

I think it's safe to say that I'm not the biggest fan of anthologies. I love the idea of them, but I find it tedious to start a new book or story sometimes because I have to get to know a new set of characters. I've always really liked Carla Kelly, and have enjoyed at least one full length novel of hers. I think my problem here is that nothing was as developed as I would have liked because the stories are all so short. The writing was good, and I love that she selects more thoughtful characters, rather than the usual rakes, dukes, rogues, etc. And I love the festive Christmas elements. But overall, I wanted more from each story. I can't fault the author for this, this is clearly a personal preference thing on my part.
