This one was fun! I think the thing I like the most was the variety I guess…each story was a Christmas story and a love story but each was so different and I loved that! I’m not sure which story I’d say was my favorite, let me think on it for a few, cause I like them all for different reasons…
Winter Kisses was about three generations and each finding love. I loved the slightly crazy grandma and was pretty happy with the way everything turned out!
The Christmas Cat was kinda a love story flash back, a widowed reminiscing on her past on her First Christmas alone and some kids from the community coming to spend Christmas with her in hopes of cheering her up. I loved this take on a Christmas love story and the way It played out.
Snow Angels, I liked it but sometimes the love from the past coming back and confusing the man character story line can get a little old. everything turned out in a way that made me happy but I wasn’t sure there for a bit
Home For Christmas….you know what I think this was my favorite!! I loved everything about this story!
