Fabulous!

The whole Holiday series was a delight! But this collection with the extra stories really made it complete! I loved each of the 3 stories that can be purchased separately, but the extras brought back characters and gave a preview into characters that were a delight.

I can be one to get easily spooked, and was a little concerned about the Halloween story, but it was written in a way that didn’t spook me. The spookiness was key to the HEA and a lot of fun!

Really loved Piper’s story! And thanks so much for having JC narrate…it would have seemed a tad awkward is CC (who narrated all the other MMCs) narrated for Piper’s love interest. Fabulous!

As always with KL and CC titles, all the narration was stellar! This is well worth a credit and more…a highly recommend! But, read stories 1-3 before to get the most from this collection!

3 New Stories-narrated by Connor Crais (solo!)

I bought this Set for the 3 all new stories. (I already own the full-length stories as separate audios, and I love them all!) Re: the new material, I enjoyed all 3, but the 4th of July (prequel to AVNS Halloween) is my favorite. The Very Holiday books & characters are some of my very favorites. I listen to them each year & definitely on/near the featured holiday. The whole VH series is truly special to me (& much cheaper than therapy!) because they never fail to bring a smile, make me laugh, or brighten my day.

As for the narration, I love that Connor Crais narrates the new stories solo! Personally, I like his female character voices as much as & often better than those of the female narrators. I think he is terrific here, & brings many of those favorite characters to life in an entertaining one-man show! And yes, besides all of the accents, Kayley Loring does succeed in getting Connor to sing! Again! (Well done, Connor!...and Thank you, Kayley!)

Narration and funny dialog.

Totally loved this whole series. The narrators did a wonderful job. And I loved the duel narration.
