Thank you NetGalley and publisher for this arc!

This book was great! I loved the writing style and I loved the characters and their chemistry. I loved the Christmas vibes. Great book!!

What a delightful, cast of characters in Christmas with the Knights by Hannah Langdon. Each with past hurts, yet finding peace and healing, and a little romance. Finding the importance of family and a balance with everyday life play important roles in the plot. I fell in love with Fallon, the main female character. Alexander, the main male character, had a calming, steady effect on all he encountered. Great novel.

3* Christmas with bells on

Christmas with the Knights reads like a Hallmark film script. Constance and Fallon are invited to Gordon's large manor house on the Yorkshire Moors for Christmas. A Christmas visit would generally be for a few days, it seems their intended stay was for weeks not days. Additional family members arrive out of the blue for indefinite stays and not an angry word was ever heard. The author missed a golden opportunity to include some bad behaviour (and her eventual comeuppance) from the scheming neighbour Annabel intent upon pursuing Alexander. Shame.

Holiday season entertainment with a slow romance between Fallon and Alexander, it even snowed at the very end.

Ignoring my personal criticism of the novel being predictable and saccharine sweet (I'm sure I could hear jingle bells while reading), if you enjoy the comfort of a Hallmark movie, this book will be for you.

ARC generously supplied by Storm Publishing and NetGalley, this review is my personal, unbiased opinion.

Having read a previous book called Christmas with the Lords I was excited to read Christmas with the Knights and I wasn’t disappointed. Fallen is running herself into the ground with work and makes the decision to head up to Yorkshire with her mum for a break.
There she meets the Knights and starts a journey of healing.
This book pulled me in from the very beginning, an easy flowing style of writing and a cosy Christmas story but with more depth.

I love this book! I’m so glad that netgalley let me arc for this book because Christmas theme books are also my favorite type of books!!

Thank you Netgalley and thank you Storm publishing for approving this arc. It is really feel good book, will make you smile.

I was invited by the publisher to review this book. Fallon is an over-worked event planner, who decides to take a breather and head out to visit her mom, a soap opera actress, on an English estate on the moors. There she meets Alexander, the owner of the estate and also a widower, and his son Theo. Fallon teams up with Alexander to help him open up a new business, and she begins to explore if she was perhaps missing something in her city life previously. Fallon's Aunt Constance helps her move on from some of the troubles of the city life, along with her pet donkey and dog (probably my favorite characters!). As the Christmas holiday approaches, Fallon has to decide if she wants this new life she built or if she wants to return to the city.

This book was a delight; it had all the feel good vibes you could want, and set the scene perfectly for Christmas. Plus. Fallon was a likeable character and Alexander seemed genuine. Plus, quite a bit of the storyline drew on real life experiences.

Thank you to NetGalley and Storm Publishing for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book was most enjoyable. Lots of lovely characters, all very different and with all the strands of their backgrounds twisted together. Add to that a child, a dog and the obligatory romance and you have the perfect winter read.

This was a fun read – full of the Christmas spirit as well as addressing some realistic human dilemmas in relationships, love, and loss.

Teetering on the brink of severe burnout, Fallon Honeywood reluctantly takes time off from her flourishing London-based event planning business to accompany her soap opera diva mother to a Yorkshire manor for the holidays. This lovely setting in the moors not only gives her time to decompress and heal from her overextension at work, but also offers opportunities to address deeper issues related to her rocky relationship with her overly critical, manipulative mother and her skewed perceptions of her own ability to love and be loved.

While Fallon’s transformational journey may be predictable and a bit rushed, it was nonetheless entertaining with a host of supporting characters including Runcible, her adorably ugly dog, and Heathcliff, a rescue donkey with a penchant for carrots. I thoroughly enjoyed Fallon’s relationship with Theo, a young boy traumatized by his parents’ divorce and his mother’s subsequent death. His involvement in the animal sanctuary added a touching dimension to the storyline. There are a few irritating characters thrown into the mix for the necessary drama – Fallon’s mother who set my teeth on edge every time she interacted with her daughter and Annabel, an attractive, haughty pursuer of the handsome widower who resides at the manor.

Overall, this was a solid, entertaining read leading into the holiday season.

My thanks to the author, the publisher, and NetGalley for the privilege of reviewing this book. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

A pleasant enough read but very predictable. Yet another posh estate setting with miscellaneous family members all performing an allocated role. I didn’t particularly take to the heroine, not her mother and the resolution of their dreadful relationship was too easy and too fast.
Also - loose ends. For one, the endlessly irritating Anabel never gets satisfactorily dealt with. I wanted a scene where she was forced to confront the reality that Alexander loved, and was going to marry someone else. Or that her behaviour was called out for the arrogant, old fashioned and stereotypical plot device that it was.

No es un mal libro, tiene partes entretenidas y ver a Fallon luchando con todas esas horribles ideas que le metió en la cabeza su madre, fue inspirador, sin embargo, la parte del romance fue aburrido. Tal vez si Alex tuviera povs sería más entretenido y amena la historia.

No me gustó como la madre maltrató a Fallon toda su vida al punto de hacerla sentirse inútil, estúpida, que no sería buena madre porque no hace nada bien, para que al final se diera cuanta de sus errores y le diera una disculpa toda rancia. Necesita ver actos no palabras. Y no me gustó la felicidad con la que Fallon la perdonó.



Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and the author for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Hannah Langdon does a fantastic job in writing this Christmas romance novel, it had that element that I enjoyed about the romance genre. It really used the Christmas element perfectly and enjoyed how well everything flowed together to tell a realistic story. I was invested in what was happening and enjoyed how good the characters worked with the story being told. I can't wait to read more from Hannah Langdon as this was really well done.

Thanks to NetGalley and Storm Publishing for the opportunity to read Christmas with the Knights by Hannah Langdon, one of my favorite writers. A gorgeous setting - perfect for a Christmas book and a fun cozy read.

Thank you to Storm Publishing and Netgalley for the arc of this charming, fun Christmas read.

When event planner Fallon Honeywood collapses from overwork after a particularly punishing Christmas party, she reluctantly agrees to spend the holidays with her soap opera-star mother at Blakeney Hall, a grand English manor on the frosty Yorkshire moors. But what starts as an awkward family reunion soon becomes an unexpected adventure…
In a splendid manor in Yorkshire where Alexander the son also resides.
Who doesn't love a Christmas book? This is so charming and witty that I binged read it. I really liked Fallon's character and her burgeoning relationship with handsome Alexander, a real catch.
It's warm and fuzzy a perfect holiday read.
Langdon's writing is brilliant she knows how to keep you invested in her real to life characters and the setting is absolutely stunning. You could easily get lost in this cozy book for hours
