perfect cozy Christmas story

Christmas Solemates is the perfect Christmas read for those who love a good cozy Christmas romance story. This is the first time I’ve read a book by Jenny Rabe, and it did not disappoint.  
I had the pleasure of listening to Lisa Lynn Sandlin's narration, which brought this story to life with all the heart and emotion. I could not stop listening. If you have not listened to a narration by Lisa, you are truly missing out.
The setting for this book was good. I loved seeing the heart of homeless shelters. This is something you don’t always get to see, so it made for a great read.  
The storyline was great. Ivy is a lawyer who likes to help out at the homeless shelter in her free time. When she knits a bunch of socks for the people at the shelter, she accidentally gives away her beloved pair from her grandmother in the box. To her surprise, it ends up in none other than Felix’s hands.  As fate would have it, Felix needs Ivy’s help. Felix is a veteran, discharged for medical reasons. He cannot seem to get the medical help that he needs and cannot afford the surgery, and that is how he finds himself needing refuge at the homeless shelter. Working as hard as he can to get back up on his feet and get the medical help that he needs, he asks Ivy for legal help. Ivy gets approval to work on the pro bono case. The more time they spend together, the more they find each other falling for one another.  
This romance is the perfect clean, kisses-only romance.
