Holiday Gifts is a sweet novella that returns you to the magical Castle Mountain Lodge for Christmas. I really enjoyed the book because both characters are relatable. Ryan is feeling that life is starting to pass him by and is interested in finding a woman and getting married. Julie has been relying on herself to raise her daughter alone for a long time. She isn't looking for love but finds it when she all but trips over it. Julie was especially relatable because every step in her relationship with Ryan was fraught with anxiety and second-guessing his feelings for her as well as her feelings for him - a very realistic emotion for someone who has been fending on her own for so long. Sweet story with a Christmas theme and a precocious teenager.

Love is in the air again at the magical Castle Mountain Lodge. Although Ryan Morrison has seen many couples fall in love there, he doesn't think it's in the cards for him. That is until Julie Pitts and her matchmaking daughter Shay arrive at the lodge. Ryan is attracted to Julie immediately but can he get her to stop working long enough to notice him??? Great story with very interesting characters! Definitely a great holiday read that I would recommend to everyone.
