The Forever Christmas Tree: A Bell Sound Novel

Great reading, one of her best

There was a lot in this story, which is very much character oriented. It also sets the stage for this new series, Bell Sound. I love this small town, and the idea of a Grinch contest is super. There were some times when I wanted to tell them to just talk to each other! But that is true in real life, too! Cassie is a great addition and added a lot to the story, as did the crew of senior citizens! I can't wait to see what happens next in this series! There is a brisk pace with an uncertain tone, and a character oriented storyline with some steamy scenes and lots of vibrant characters. If that sounds good to you, then try this. Enjoy!

Good book, but like another reviewer, I was disappointed that Ethan didn't really apologize for cheating on Wendy, getting the other girl pregnant, and breaking Wendy's heart. And then he married the other girl a month after Wendy left town. And all through the book he seemed half kissed that Wendy had left, that she didn't love him enough. I loved aunt Millie and all her boarders, and the quirky people in town. And the SEALs who came with Wendy for the holidays were fun, too.

I really couldn't put it down! I was so sleepy when I finished I felt drunk! It was 5:30 a.m. Not the first time with this series either. I did want to shake /slap some sense into them.If you like to laugh, wait until you meet Aunt Mil and her friends. They didn't have any problem saying whatever they were thinking. I'd like to go to one of their dance classes! I hope we see more of the Seals, Seals and Vikings soon!!

Sandra Hill writes with such humor and heart ❤. I've read all her Viking series and Cajun series. In this one, our heroine is a Weals (female Navy Seal) and our hero is her high school sweetheart. She and her teammates go to her home for the Holidays on the Outer Banks. There are old friends, wacky seniors living in her house with her aunt, a Grinch competition, loads of Christmas celebrations, and lots of romantic angst. And some explicit sex. Highly recommend.
