Sleigh Bells Ring: A Sapphic Romance

De: Alyson Root

Narrado por: Lillia Green

For Nicole Robinson, Christmas means returning to the family home in Hebden Bridge with her sister Beth and their brother Liam, who has lived with permanent delays since a childhood accident. Though Beth and Nicole have grown up and moved away, every December the Robinson kids reunite for a month of family and festive traditions.

One tradition, however, has always stood out: the mysterious source of the sleigh bells they’ve heard every Christmas for as long as they can remember. The magic of it all keeps them searching year after year, convinced the answer is just one clever plan—or perhaps something more magical—away.

And while the Robinson household is brimming with holiday cheer, Nicole’s love life is anything but merry. Every year, like clockwork, she finds herself single by Christmas—dumped by one girlfriend after another who can't handle the intense month-long family tradition. This year is no different, and Beth has even made her an Advent calendar to track her sister’s inevitable seasonal breakups. But a familiar face from the Robinsons' past begs to ask if maybe, just maybe, Nicole’s luck is about to change.

Niamh, a childhood friend of Liam’s and the only one who stayed by his side after the accident, has returned to Hebden Bridge. A decade away has turned her into a stunning Irish woman with raven hair and sparkling green eyes, and as the scent of hot chocolate fills the air, she stirs something warm and unexpected in Nicole.

Can Niamh fit into the Robinson family’s quirky Christmas traditions, or will this holiday romance end like all the others? As sleigh bells ring and festive cheer fills the air, Nicole just might discover that the real meaning of Christmas isn’t in the mystery of the bells, but in the magic of love.

Great Holiday Story

I listened to this audiobook after reading the story and enjoyed it even more as the characters were brought to life. Excellent choice to add to my holiday listens.

Sleigh Bells Ring

I love the Robinson family! They are loving, supportive, fun, always welcoming... a wonderful bunch!

I absolutely love their Christmas traditions! Spending the whole month of December with your family doing winter things sounds amazing! The parents were great, the siblings & close friends were funny. Nicole and Niamh were acrobatic lol... and hot!!🔥🔥🔥

And then there was Pat 🤨, but I liked how Nic handled her.

Anyways, this is another holiday favorite for me!

Lillia Green did a fantastic job with the narration!

Absolutely adorkable

I received a free copy of this book for an honest review. I absolutely loved it! There were so many parts that made me giggle nonstop and the overall story was fun and cute! The narrator did a nice job and has a lovely voice. There is an Irish character who didn’t sound very Irish to me but I am also American so I’m sure what I think of as “Irish” is heavily pronounced.

I would definitely recommend this book to others and see it being a yearly holiday read for me!

Sweet Christmas romance

Well written, engaging love story about family, traditions and falling in love. Delightful banter between family members that rings true throughout the story.

Such a fun holiday story with depth

I listened to the audiobook. It was such fun. The narrator does good voices. I did notice a few issues with the audio quality, though, which I didn't really understand, and there was also some repetition, not sure if that's the fault of the narrator or the author, but I'm assuming the author. This author is becoming my go-to Christmas book author. The story is just so charming and cute, but also real and romantic. Liam is so sweet and lovable. All the characters are! And the story is a touch magical, in the relationship and otherwise. I don't want to say more because spoilers.
