About this listen

December 1943. When Zachary Flynn suggested that he and Amity Belmont enlist together, he never dreamed the recruiters would reject him because of his flat feet. Now, Amity’s off fighting the war, and he could kick himself for letting his bruised ego get in the way of telling her his true feelings. If he had, maybe Lilac’s well-meaning matchmakers wouldn’t be trying to hustle him under the mistletoe with someone other than Amity.

Sergeant Amity Belmont never should have confided her fears to anyone in her Women’s Army Corps unit. When her commanding officer gets wind of Amity’s concerns, she recommends Amity set things right at home before taking on her new assignment. Of all the people she’s disappointed, Amity is worried most about Zach. She cannot ask him to forgive something she doesn’t regret.

Will her surprise visit to Lilac bring the Christmas miracle they both need?

A boost of holiday spirit!

This novella is the perfect listen to start to get into the holiday spirit! Amity and Zach enlist in the army together. They have plans, but because of flat feet, Zach is sent home. Now the two are separated, never having told the other how they really feel. Amity comes home to sort things out before her next assignment. Will their pride continue to get in their way? I love this book because it's Christmas, but also because it features a strong, woman soldier! We don't get to see much of this for the time period it's written for and it's refreshing. It does let us delve into family and expectations, as well as mend fences. I enjoyed this short WWII piece and as always will be watching for more by Pamela Ferguson.

Stephanie Dillard gives a wonderfully warm performance with her portrayal of the story. Her character voices are genuine and she has a good pace. Her narration is very enjoyable.

Sweet Christmas story

Set during the world war, this story is about discovering one’s inner strength, doing what’s right and forgiveness. Amity defied her parents wishes and joined the Women’s Army Corp. Now she is on leave for Christmas and has returned home to make things right with her family. She didn’t plan on the resurgent feelings for her college sweetheart, who had encouraged her to enlist...and whom had failed the physical. War rations, prejudice against women serving in the military and religious folks who are against violence...all issues that are part of history and are dealt with respectfully. Sweet love story with an HEA. Enjoyable novella that is well written and narrated.
I accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Touching!

In college, Amity Belmont and Zachary Flynn were a couple and they planned on enlisting together, but Zach was turned away because of his flat feet. He considered it an embarrassment that followed him home on his way to being a high school teacher. Amity has fought in the war as a WAC and has been reassigned so she has some time to come home before she begins her new job. Her parents didn't agree with her enlistment and there are some feelings of hurt, especially with her father. Zachary and Amity spend as much time as they can reminiscing and enjoying each other's company, so when it comes time for Amity to leave, it's painful. But Zach has discovered an option that will give him the flexibility to stay close to Amity. I love this story, the message and the sweetness. With another visit to Lilac, the closeness of the community is greatly satisfying.
The narration by Stephanie Dillard brings each of the characters to life with her dynamic voice, tonal inflection and just the right pacing.

Short, Sweet and Delightful!

This novel checked all the boxers for me, who wanted a Christmas story and a love story! I didn't need hot coco, I was warm for hours after listening. Such a heart warming tale taking place during World War II. Interesting twist when it was the woman who was returning from leave and seeing the man she left behind and not the other way around. I really enjoyed that twist. The author has a wonderful way with words and capturing the imagination. Very visual. The narrator Stephanie Dillard did a wonderful job! She did so many voices and it was always clear who was speaking and she changed her voice just right! This was a great pairing to make a wonderful audiobook! It was delightful! A way to spend an afternoon and fall in love!

I was provided a free copy of this audiobook and this is my unbiased review.
