A Small Town Christmas

A Small Town Christmas by Nan Reinhardt Four Irish Brothers Winery #1 Samantha and Connor meet when her tire shreds and she is stuck at the side of the road. There was attraction between the two but with a chance meeting that ended with goodbye rather than the exchange of names and phone numbers how could anything like romance ever be expected? Well, in romances one definitely SHOULD expect more and that is just what happens. Connor has been a widow for two years and has a four year old daughter. He runs the winery and has three brothers scattered across the country. The brothers are tight and there for one another and at the moment they are dealing with an inheritance law suit and that is where Samantha’s lawyerly skills will come in handy. The two spend time together eating, talking, socializing, caring for Connor’s daughter and dealing with the law suit but whether or not their attraction can become more is dependent on Samantha being able to believe that she is good wife and mother material and that takes her a bit of time to come to terms with. Thoroughly enjoyable sweet romance that provided a HEA for everyone at Christmas and look forward to finding out how the other brothers find their partners. Thank you to NetGalley and Tule Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review. 3-4 Stars

I am in love with River's Edge and the Four Irish Brothers Winery series by Nan Rinehardt. Small Town Christmas is the first in this series that I am sure will be good. Connor Flahtery has been a widower for the past two years. He along with his four year old daughter live and run the family winery in River's Edge. When his father passes away suddenly the Flaherty brothers are surprised when their stepmother contests his will and files a lawsuit. Samantha/Sam Hayes a up and coming attorney has agreed to help out when her boss asks for her to go to River's Edge and help out with the lawsuit. A chance encounter brings Sam and Conner together when he stops to help her after she is stranded on the side of the road. A spark of attraction goes off. Now read the book to see what happens. You will not be disappointed.

LOVED! I'm so excited to see this is only the beginning of what I expect to be a great series to read. Coner and Samantha are amazing characters but Conor's young daughter Ali steals the show. It's been two years since Conor lost his wife and he just now feels himself coming back to life when he meets the new family attorney Samantha "Sam" Hayes. Sam needs a break from her high stress job in Chicago so handling a case in small town Rivers Edge sounds like the perfect thing for the holiday season. Little does she know what or who she'll find in this little town. This is a very well done book and one I highly recommend.
