This holiday season has been filled with so many new and fun books written by authors I love and some who are new to me. I have also been blessed with so many wonderful opportunities to work with so many wonderful people. To see what I've been u to come to visit my sister blog The Mobility Mom

Book Description

At 25 years old, preschool teacher Kayla Harris is embarrassed to admit she’s never been kissed. When Tony DiNunzio and his grieving nephew show up in her classroom, she can’t help being drawn to both of them. If only her insecurities-and his guilt over his sister’s death-would stop standing in their way.

As Christmas approaches, can these three come together to form a family... not just for the holidays, but forever?

My Thoughts


This was a sweet holiday story about healing, trust, and finding love

Kayla is a preschool teacher who at 25 has never been kissed. In walks Tony a man trying to raise and help his nephew Jax recover from losing his mom. The only problem is Tony is grieving as well and blaming himself.

Together these characters form a tender bond and begin a journey of healing.

I thought this story was a beautiful way of showing how the holidays and friendship can help someone heal. Greif is a personal thing and I felt the author did a wonderful job showing that. I also really enjoyed watching these characters come together.

Overall a wonderful holiday read to snuggle up with on a cold, rainy winter day in Florida.
