A Wallflower Christmas

A Novel (Wallflowers, Book 5)

De: Lisa Kleypas

Narrado por: Mary Jane Wells

New York Times best-selling author Lisa Kleypas’ sparking tale of love, romance, and Christmas magic, set in Victorian London, in which the irresistible Wallflowers help steer the course of true love for a notorious wealthy American and his reluctant British bride.

The search for true love brought the Wallflowers together. Now happily married, these four delightful society women reunite once again to help a notorious rogue find happiness under the Christmas mistletoe....

Rafe Bowman has arrived in London to meet the aristocratic young woman he hopes to marry - Natalie Blandford, the very proper and beautiful daughter of Lord and Lady Blandford. But the dashing American’s shocking reputation has preceded him. Before he can claim Natalie’s heart, Rafe must learn to navigate the conventions of London society to win her hand.

Even with the best teachers - four former Wallflowers experienced in the art of matchmaking - the wildly rich and very impatient Rafe discovers that wooing a bride is far more complicated than he expected. But Christmas is a time of magic - when a rake can become a romantic...and ignite passion in even the most straitlaced young lady’s heart.

A wonderful reunion novella

Lisa Kleypas + The Wallflowers + Mary Jane Wells = 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Can’t get better any than this. This reunion novella was already five stars on the fourth re-read. The audiobook takes it up a notch.

K!eypas returns to her original story telling

I was unhappy with latest novel but this one gave me hope she still tells the best romantic stories. I would like to read more about the wallflowers siblings. Rafe has brothers.

Recommended

I really enjoyed this book and the Wallflower series. Now onto another of her series.

Loved it!

There is nothing by Lisa Kleypas that isn’t 5 stars. This book finishes the Wallflower series really well.

Delightful!

Loved meeting the Wallflowers again. Rafe and Hannah were perfect for one another. Loved all of the characters. My disappointment is that the story wasn’t longer. The narration was spot on. A must read/listen!

A Fantastic Ending

4.5 stars ⭐️ We got to see all of the Wallflowers at Christmastime at Stony Cross Manor. Rafe is Lillian and Daisy’s roguish brother. Hannah is his betrothed’s cousin. Sparks fly between Rafe and Hannah at their first meeting and the romance between them is good! The chemistry was fantastic. Plus we got more of the series couple. A Wallflower Christmas is a great wrap up to one of the best series.

Did exactly what I wanted it to

Was it her best book of all time? No. But, this was exactly what I was hoping for. It got the job done.

Gotta love Lisa

This was a charming story of a Cinderella-esque romance between an American entrepreneur and an impoverished Englishwoman. She was in service to her cousin, the daughter of a noble family who was looking to marry her into money. Sparks flew immediately but not between the intended couple. This book was on the lighter side of some of the author’s books and I enjoyed it immensely.

She should not do New York access

Although the story was pleasant and I was surprised that I enjoyed it as much as he seem to be very repetitious. The reader though cannot do men’s voices very well and especially New York accents

too short! i needed more content! I still loved it

I missed the voices of the characters as they were in previous books...narrator could have done better. I was expecting to know Lilian was reassured by Westcliff that he only loves her; in this book she was a bit unsure and jealous about another woman. Main characters in this book had a nice story. I loved the letter!!
