review

time for one last trip to hope crossing, texas for the holidays!

when a wildfire destroys her home, tori stallings is sure that God has something against her. after losing her parents, her husband, and now, her house, plus all her belongings, she's struggling to understand how He could love her. her brother-in-law micah can't bear to see tori—and her son, aiden—flounder and determines to help her rebuild, especially as christmas approaches. but can he keep his unrequited feelings in check while he does so?

rediscovering christmas is a heartfelt story. there are lots of tough emotions with which to grapple, as tori loses faith and finds again, as micah takes on a fatherly role for his nephew, but believes he's not deserving of the love he craves. amidst the hard moments, though, there are plenty of sweet ones. beauty can be found among the ashes, and joy can still be found in celebrating christmas when hope seems to be lost.

readers of the series, too, will enjoy seeing all the hope crossing characters throughout this final book. it's so sweet to see how far they've all come, while supporting, tori, aiden, and micah through their challenges.

if you need a quick read and love contemporary romance set during the holidays, check out rediscovering christmas.
