Coming Home for Christmas

De: Jenny Hale

Narrado por: Teri Schnaubelt

Coming Home for Christmas is a beautifully observed story about the importance of family, the magic of Christmas, and falling in love one snowflake at a time.

Fans of Trisha Ashley, Susan Wiggs, Carole Matthews and Susan Mallery - and anyone who loves the sound of carols and the twinkling of lights on the Christmas tree - will adore Jenny Hale's feel-good debut.

Christmas is a time for family... isn't it?

Allie Richfield loves Christmas, so when she lands a job as House Manager for the amazing Ashford Estate - which includes organizing the Marley family festivities - she is in her element. With a budget bigger than her life savings and a team of staff, how hard can it be?

As one-by-one she meets the Marleys, she’s about to find out...

Allie’s new boss, Robert, might be gorgeous, but he’s also colder than the snow outside and refuses to come home for Christmas. Robert’s playboy brother, Kip, flirts with her relentlessly; and his sister, Sloane, arrives home with baggage - both the divorce-kind and the Louis Vuitton kind. Their ninety-two year old grandmother, Pippa, spends her day grumbling at them all from her mobility scooter.

With Robert intending to sell Ashford, it’s the Marley’s last chance to create some happy memories in their family home - and Allie is determined to make it happen... even if it takes a little Christmas magic! With the festive spirit in full swing, she might even discover a little happiness of her own...

ANOTHER FUCKING LOVE TRIANGLE UGHHH

The narration is amazing, but sadly the plot is hackneyed. I am sorry but love triangles are soo high school and writers should REALLY stop including them in their plots. If the narrator wouldn't have been so good, I would have given this book a 1 star. Also, the main character pisses me off. She's is basically another Bella Swan, upset that her Edward is away and trying to distract herself with Jacob, but without the build up. Twilight, to me, is one of the worst books written in the last 100 years. If I can say Twilight at least had a build-up... you know how bad this book must be! If you are over 12 years old, please stay away!

Enjoyable

Just what you want a Christmas story to be. Mystery, romance, and family trials all centering around a beautiful estate with all the winter/Christmas time feels!

Can’t get enough of Jenny Hales Christmas novels

My third Jenny Hale Christmas book this year. Each one is incredible. The story line, characters and I love the narrator is perfect! You experience the Christmas season with the family and feel as if you are in the midst of their lives/home/setting—- enjoy!!!

Happy Christmas story

I liked this book a lot though I found the main character a bit disappointing. The story had a few ups and downs but the ending was good.

Great Christmas Love Story

Yes, I’m a diehard romantic so this was a perfect story for Christmas. I loved the characters.
