CAT'S REVIEW
 
"A Bramble House Christmas" by C.J. Carmichael.   This is the first book of the series I have read and had no trouble following.  We meet Willa and her son Scout traveling in a bad snowstorm and along the way, we are also introduced to Finn.  I liked Willa.  She's a single mom that is overly protective of her son - rightly so, we come to find out. Her life hasn't been easy as of late and when she meets Finn, she falls hard.  Finn is a good guy, despite the circumstances that bring them together.  He's funny and kind and great with Scout.  Overall, this is an enjoyable read that is smooth and flows nicely.  It's a feel good story and although there is a bit of tension at some spots, it's not overwhelming and Ms. Carmichael, keeping with the feel good aura, smooths it over quickly enough.  There isn't any action or adventure - it's a simple love story.   Willa, Finn and Scout are enjoyable and work really well together.  The other characters in the story are fun too - even Aunt Mabel!  For a story that isn't overrun with angst and that will make you sit and smile, I would say check this one out.
