Short biography
In another life, Jennifer Faye had been a statistician. She still has a love for numbers, formulas and spreadsheets, but when she was presented with the opportunity to follow her lifelong passion to spend her days writing and pursuing her dream of becoming a Harlequin author, she couldn’t pass it up. These days when she’s not writing, Jennifer enjoys reading, fine needlework, quilting, tweeting and cheering on the Pittsburgh Penguins. She lives in Pennsylvania with her amazingly patient husband, two remarkably talented daughters and their two very spoiled furbabies otherwise known as cats, but shh…don’t tell them they’re not human. 

I really enjoyed this story, about a woman who is running from an abusive past and a widowed farmer facing challenges after a barn fire in the first book of the series. Aster has arrived to stay with her college friend Darla, and is working part time, hoping to make a new life for herself in this tight knit, richly described, community. One of her first tasks is helping coordinate a secret fundraiser the town wants to hold to help native islander Sam with rebuilding his barn. He is gruff to show more say the least, but a precocious, adorable daughter, Nikki and cute goats on his farm take the edge off pretty quickly. Aster takes on babysitting chores for Sam and it's not long before their chemistry becomes apparent to all but them. What a well written, charming romance, with lots of characters to root for and want to visit again. show less
A sweet story of love and family. Gia is reeling from two blows. First is the loss of her beloved parents in an accident. Second is the revelation that she does not share the same father as her two siblings. Suddenly she doesn't know who she is. An entry in her mother's journal sends Gia off to the island of Lapri in search of her biological father. While investigating an abandoned mansion, Gia found a trapped puppy and the property's owner, Ric.

Ric is a CEO and software genius. He keeps to show more himself as much as possible and avoids relationships altogether. When he gets a call about a strange woman poking about the property, he expects to find a thief or someone out for what they can get. Instead, he encounters an attractive young woman and an injured puppy.

I loved the first meeting between Gia and Ric. He arrives, ready to toss her off the property, only to find himself falling under her spell. It never crossed Gia's mind that Ric wouldn't help; she simply included him in her efforts, and he followed along. He thought of all the things he should say to get rid of her, but what came out of his mouth were offers to help.

I enjoyed seeing the relationship develop between Gia and Ric. They began as cautious acquaintances, bonding over the care of the puppy, which quickly grew into friendship. Ric offered to help Gia with her search, as he is empathetic to her cause. Not one to take without giving something in return, Gia puts her talents to use helping Ric with the renovation of his uncle's house. The more time they spend together, the more their feelings for each other change. There are some sweet scenes of them together. Gia's thoughts frequently wander to what a future with Ric would be like. Ric's do likewise, but those thoughts scare him, thanks to the issues from his past. I ached for Gina when those fears made him push her away. I thought he deserved every bit of the misery he felt after she left until he realized that he didn't like the look of his future without her. I thoroughly enjoyed how he had to get past Gia's protective siblings before he made his peace with her. His reunion with her was sweet and romantic.

Family was a big part of this book. It wasn't just Gia's search for her father, but also Ric's feelings about his family. His mother was a piece of work and never missed a chance to make the young boy feel like he was a mistake. She finally dumped him on his uncle. Ric's life was more stable, but he never thought that he was truly wanted. I liked how Gia opened his eyes when helping him go through his uncle's papers.

Meanwhile, Gia was desperate to find her father and hoped that would restore her sense of family. I loved that Ric worked so hard to help and support her along the way. While her search didn't turn out the way she hoped, on her return home, she realized that blood doesn't always mean family. Family is what you make of it.

I enjoyed returning to the magical Infinity Island in the Mediterranean off of Greece and was soon swept away in more ways than one by this sweet, contemporary romance. Popi Costas, the island wedding planner, is nearing the end of her surrogacy for her sister and brother-in-law. Sadly, the two have died in an accident and Popi is willing to take on the responsibility of raising the baby, unsure of the intentions of Apollo Drakos, the uncle. The island scenes were beautifully described and show more the story soon gave way to Athens and more Greek atmosphere. Popi and Apollo seem made for each other, and to watch them grow to trust one another was a treat. A great romantic read! show less

When I first started this novel, I had expected to read a few chapters and be done for the night, but I ended up reading the entire book in one sitting. I can’t explain what it was that drew me in, but it helped me escape to a happier place than my current situation, and for that, I am thankful.

The Stars Hollow vibes are strong from the get-go as Belle races to her job in the small town of Kringle Falls in the opening scene. In my mind, I saw Lorelei without Rory or the Gilmore’s, which show more really helped set the scene and that Stars Hollow feel never really left. When Belle’s house is broken into and her puppy stolen, the idyllic story takes a sinister turn as the mystery surrounding the theft deepens. What also grows deeper is the attraction between Belle and Kringle Falls sheriff, Parker Bishop.

The banter between Parker and Belle is charming and comfortable, and seeing them together was sweet, but Belle was a character that I struggled to connect with. Her stubbornness was off-putting, and I felt like humble and helpful Parker was too good for her, but she eventually won me over.

Sprinkled throughout the story are Christmas traditions and treats that have all those cozy, holiday feels that come with the season. The scenes about the ornaments were some of my favorite moments and were such a touching tribute that had me thinking about my own family traditions. While the story is not that deep, it is entertaining and is the perfect novel to read during a busy holiday season.
