Back to Dream Harbor for the holidays! I love this small town series. They are all just feel good stories and are so cute to get into with the little quirks of each storyline. I liked the Christmas tree farm angle and Kira being a little grinch-y was a nice vibe especially in comparison to Bennett. He was such a sweetheart which gave for a great grumpy x sunshine in this small town! I listened to the audio for this one which was a bit dry for me but it didn’t ruin the story whatsoever.

I discovered Laurie Gilmore's books by chance when I subscribed to audiobooks on Spotify. Honestly, it was a pleasant surprise, and I'm already on my third book by this author. The Christmas Tree Farm was the book that took me the longest to finish; the reading dragged quite a bit, and I found the pace of the story very slow until more than halfway through the book. On the other hand, I found the ending very rushed and full of loose ends.
