Winter House

By: Joanne DeMaio

Narrated by: Steven Barnett

From New York Times best-selling author Joanne DeMaio comes an enchanting novel about a beautiful old house and the love story it opens its doors to.

New England in December is a special world. Wreath-topped lampposts shine, balsam garland drapes across picket fences, and fresh snow dusts the land. Then there are the decorated houses: saltboxes, Victorians, farmhouses, Tudors. Tiny lights shimmer on front porches; candles glow in paned windows. But one imposing stone colonial towers dark in the night.

Since moving to town, Millie Ives has heard hushed whisperings of that house - and of the mysterious man who lives and works there. A chance happening leads Millie to this Mr. Winter's spellbinding shop just past the bell tower. Surprisingly, he's not who she thought he'd be.

As the month unfolds, both find themselves on each other's minds and in each other's hearts. Yet when Millie tries to bridge a gap in his life, she risks losing him. Unless the spirit of the season can bring them back together at the Winter House.

LOVED IT!!

I did not want the story to end! Millie and Dean's story was just lovely and refreshing. I love the small town feel of the story, as with all the other books. A good holiday book to start the holidays off real nice. Can't wait for the next one!!

Heartwarming

the story was beautiful and I loved everything about it except the voice of Milli. whenever I heard her voice I imagined a middle-aged woman like a grandmother or loving aunt. She didn't sound like a young woman falling in love.

Warms Your Soul

Do yourself a favor and read this heartwarming book of friends and family. This has all the feels and vibes of Christmas, love, understanding and friendship. My heart is happy after reading this lovely book.

Good Story but Narration was Annoying

I’ve come to realize that I don't like it when a man tries to do a woman's voice or vice versa. There are very few that can pull it off well. I don't think it was done well in this recording. I found myself distracted by the narrators.

Voice

This was a good heartwarming book but the female voices especially of Milllie was grating - instead of a women it sounds like a windy 4 year old
