Publisher's summary

When James Everard announced that he had invited a young lady home for the holidays, his father, the Earl of Gyllford, was astounded and skeptical. Could it be that Jamie was finally showing an interest in something other than horseplay with his friends? But when lovely Miss Evalyn Pennington arrived at Gyllford Manor, it was the earl who found himself inexplicably drawn to her winsome beauty. Having been dismissed from her post as a governess, Evalyn would long remember the kindness of being welcomed at Gyllford Manor when she had nowhere else to turn. But neither Evalyn nor the earl expected the light of love that filled their Christmas with some very special gifts.

A Christmas Kiss

A Christmas Kiss was an enjoyable book. Did not realise it was set back in the 1800's I think. Easy to listen too. Better than most of the books in the romance package.

Pretty good...

The book was entertaining, if a bit predictable. Characters were well framed. Another review didn't care for the narrator but I thought her performance was good.

Cute and Light

The story was cute and light-hearted. It felt alot like a Jane Austen book, with misunderstandings and mischief abound. Personally, I prefer more emotionally intense books that I can really sink my teeth into. However, this one is well written and a nice break from heavier stories.

Traditional regency

A lovely Christmas regency romance. Worth the read. It’s a lovely and beautiful story with miscommunications.

Such a fun read

This is a clean and wonderfully romantic romance filled with feel-good moments. The performance is perfect and totally captures the Regency period. You will feel like you stepped back in time.

mature kind of love

Loved that the beginning you would have thought she would end up with someone her own age !!! She was older than her age and perfect match!

Compelling Plot but Slow Delivery

I couldn't wait to get started, as the plot sounded very romantic. Sadly, it took a couple chapters for the story to pick up, Personally, I felt like the delivery was slower than it needed to be, with extraneous details and conversations slowing the story down.

Not so great

The strong accent did not help. Too much wondering around the plot.

But that is only my opinion.
