    Loved the characters and the town setting. The storyline was enthralling, the twist and turns amazing and love story heartbreaking. No cliffhangers, lots of laughs, lots of “what the...” and lots of tender loving moments. Great read!!!

    A sweet story with characters you really like. Although a little predictable, you will root for Carol and Jack to find happiness in Christmas. And who doesn't love a baby named Lizardbaby.
