Her dream came true and ruined everything. Emily Benoit left her small ranching community in Idaho to become the art director for a large New York City department store. In the process she broke her heart, as well as Devlin Camp's, the love of her life. Emily's back for Christmas and there are no tidings of comfort and joy from Devlin because he can't begin to forgive her. Besides, he's gotten married. Emily knows too well what she gave up but getting it back is impossible.

Lovely and Sweet and I Just Want More!

Narration - Kristyl Dawn Tift - Really Good. She has a smooth, sweet yet sultry voice that was really enjoyable to listen to.

The story? GAH! I so loved it, but it was so short. I know, I know, it's a novella - I knew what I was getting into, but I enjoyed this so much, that I wanted more and really wanted more of these characters. In fact, with about 35 minutes left, I went-a-stalking Barbara Morgenroth on goodreads to try to find out if this was hopefully a novella in the middle of a series so I could get the rest of the books. Alas, much to my disappointment, it appears to be a stand alone.

So good! It's lovely and sweet and I just want more! (hint, hint Barbara Morgenroth)

Christmas in August!

**I was given this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

What more can you ask for than Christmas in August? This was a short, sweet romance, including Emily and Devlin. Emily, a girl who was looking to get away from the small town and make something of herself comes to realize that her cowboy is all she needs. Devlin is the perfect cowboy Christmas present! You get caught up in their banter, trying to figure out where they still stand and where they will be going.

The narration of this book by Kristyl Dawn Tift was wonderful. She has a nice smooth voice that gets you listening and keeps you there.

I would have loved this book to be a little longer, whether delving into their past some more or adding on some future scenes would have been great. The book was enjoyable.

The Christmas Catalog - Please Be A Prequal


Barbara Morgenroth writes about Devlin and Emily, a young couple who's dreams take them in separate directions. Devlin is happy in the expectation of staying in the hometown ranching community. Emily has big dreams that take her to a powerful career in NYC. As far as Emily knows, Devlin is happily married. She has the career she dreamed of and should be thrilled with her life but something is missing (Devlin.)

One Christmas, Emily is called to go home. The author treats us with vivid descriptions of the home, town and people. She is miserable.... (Emily, not the author!)

I cannot say much more without spoiling. It was a short book and I wish the climax had peeked sooner. There was a little too much grumbling by Emily and the end was....oops, I'm not spoiling.

Another reviewer hoped that this was a prequel to a series. If so, that would change my whole opinion about this book. As is, it was a bit boring, with time wasted on details...it felt like backstory. So maybe...

The narration was adequate and matched the story.

None of this is meant to be harsh or critical. Other reviewers give it 5*'s for me it felt average. *I was given a copy in exchange for my review.

If you found that my review helped you in making a decision whether or not to purchase this book, would you please select yes directly below? Thank you.

Great story, great narrator!

What did you like best about this story?

A great Christmas romance. The narrator really brings the characters to life. I soon forgot I was listening to a book.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I turned on this book just to listen to while doing something else and was quickly hooked. I found myself caught up in the story the whole time and didn't want it to end. I listened to the entire thing in one sitting. I lost track of time.

Beautiful Sensual voice.

Yes, especially for people who enjoy hearing stories told aloud. The narrator's voice is especially beautiful, calm and easy on the ears. Clean recording, a great listen for a rainy stormy cold day.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Christmas Catalog?

Listen to the end, it gets juicy.

I was chilly in Florida!

What made the experience of listening to The Christmas Catalog the most enjoyable?

I have read as many of Barbara Morgenroth's books as I can get my hands on, including this book when it was titled A Cowboy For Christmas. I like the new title better, LOL! I thoroughly enjoyed Kristyl Dawn Tift's narration. She did an excellent job of reading Ms. Morgenroth's words. It is still 88 degrees here in Florida, but listening to her I felt like had hit a wall of cold weather exiting the airport in Idaho!
