About this listen

There’s a reason I hate the holidays, but nothing could’ve prepared me for the literal nightmare of flying three thousand miles in the middle of December.

When my coworker gets the flu, I reluctantly volunteer to take their assignment to write a piece on Vermont’s most famous Christmas small town.

After a delayed flight and driving through a blizzard in a minivan to a mountain cabin in the middle of nowhere, I find myself mixed up in a rental scam.

It’s bad enough the owner walks into my room naked and accuses me of breaking in, but then he tells me all the roads into town are closed. Even if I could leave, all the hotels are booked with tourists for the winter festival.

Even worse, his house is decorated like the North Pole.

Like I said, a nightmare.

The only perk about being snowed in with a lumberjack is that he’s accustomed to the cold and lets me steal his body heat in the middle of the night.

But then that turns into more, and even when I try to resist, I can’t help getting attached. It’ll never work out because we live on opposite sides of the country and have nothing in common.

Except, maybe we do…

My Greatest Joy was previously published as “The Joy of Us” by Kennedy Fox. The bonus chapter and bonus scene are not included in the audiobook version, but you can find them now on my website.

Heartwarming Holiday Romance

Fallon and Levi’s story was a sweet, heartwarming holiday romance. These two were complete opposites, Levi loves Christmas and owns a tree farm while Fallon dislikes it due to her past and is sent to a small-town to write an article about his tree farm. They get stranded together during a blizzard and I loved watching them get to know each other, all of the playful banter between them and all of the swoony moments as he showed her around the town. I loved that she got to see the magic of the town and the people.

The narration from Andi Arndt and Aiden Snow brought this story and Fallon and Levi’s personalities to life and I enjoyed listening to both of them. I have enjoyed this entire series and Levi and Fallon’s story was a perfect way to end it.

A story to enjoy even when it isn't the holidays!!

Aiden Snow as a Christmas loving man....sign me up. This reverse grumpy/sunshine is a fantastic audio. Andi and Aiden are a great narrating team. I was honestly sad that it ended so soon.

Don't wait for the holiday season to listen to this wonderful story of a grumpy journalist that finds herself in quite the predicament when the cabin she thinks she is renting is in fact lived in by a Christmas loving man whose family owns a tree farm. The meet cute (or not so cute) will have you laughing out loud. The way these two banter back and forth and fight their attraction makes the story even more delicious.

My favorite from the whole series!

I think out of all the Love in Isolation stories, The Joy of Us is hands down my favorite. There is just something about the way this story plays out that makes my heart happy and sing! I mean, the way that Fallon and Levi are initially introduced to each other had me laughing so hard. Having Arndt and Snow give life to Fallon and Levi was absolute perfection. I loved how these two just melted into the characters that they portray.
This whole story to me was about how to find that spirit within your soul not just with Christmas but life in general. My heart hurt so much for the reasons as to why Fallon didn’t celebrate the holidays anymore but Levi made her see the beauty in it. I have always loved books from Kennedy Fox, and Hunter and Travis are still my top faves but Levi has a very special place in my heart for his giving soul and so much more. This story is full of the feels, the laughs and so much more. Great read for the holidays!

Mrs. Grinch. say less lol

I absolutely loved being back in Maplewood Falls. Seriously the descriptions and hearing about people's first reactions as they explore the town just makes me wanna be there.

We got to know Fallon and Levi in this one. From their very first crazy and painful (IYKYK 😅) interaction, I just knew I was gonna adore these two. Honestly I related to Fallon's grinchiness so much. She had me laughing over and over saying - yep, same girl, yep same. Levi on the other hand is born and bred with an intense Christmas spirit. He's also the cutest dog dad. So the pairing was really comical yet it helped break down so many walls for them both.

Loved getting to see book 1's characters come back in this one also. Such a fun holiday read. The audio hit the nail on the head too by having the best narrators capture all the chaotic action and banter. It was exactly what I needed! Highly recommend this series for some great seasonal reads.

A Fun Opposites Attract!

An MMC that loves Christmas and an FMC that despises it? Sign me up!

I really enjoyed the audio of My Greatest Joy by Brooke Fox. Performed in dual narration style Andi Arndt and Aiden Snow did a really good job of performing the roles of the main characters as well as the side characters.

After a rental scam leaves Fallon literally running into a not so dressed Levi (the owner of the home), he offers her a place to stay so she's not left without a rental during the holiday.

Their banter was so fun, the spice was SPICING, and I just adored how they helped one another learn and discover new things about themselves. This was a really fun and quick listen - 4 stars!

Ummm Levi White is a whole freaking snack y’all!

Fallon and Levi meet when she is scammed into thinking she’s renting a cabin when it really is his home. After a little blizzard that makes them cuddle to stay warm, things heat up left and right.

Levi helps Fallon find her love for the holidays again and makes her see that not all men are the same. It was a great ending to the Love in Isolation series.

My Greatest Joy

My Greatest Joy is the second book in the Maplewood Falls series. This book is about Levi and Fallon and is told from both of their points of view.

Fallon dislikes Christmas, but when her coworker gets the flu, she has to travel to write a story about a Christmas small town. When she gets to her rental, she meets Levi in a funny way.

Now stuck in the small town, and staying with Levi things get interesting. I loved the banter between Levi and Fallon. What happens with them in close quarters? Can Levi get Fallon to fall in love with Christmas again? What happens when it's time for Fallon to return home?

I enjoyed this book, and hope to see these characters again!

I received an ALC for this book in exchange for an honest review. A huge thank you for this honor to listen to this early! 🫶🏻 These are 100% my true feelings and unbiased opinions on this book. Thank you Brooke, it’s an honor to be on your team! 🫶🏻

This was such a fun, quick and cozy read but it also had me swooning and laughing out loud! I loved the reverse grumpy sunshine trope here! It’s so often we see the MMC grumpy about Christmas and being a downright Scrooge! I loved seeing Levi try to get Fallon on board with the festivities! It was so sweet! I get why she disliked the holiday season, but so glad things turned out the way they did ❤️

The banter between these two was perfect and once again Brooke has a way to suck you in and use such great imagery to get you right into the spirit! The small town Christmas festivities were so cute and fun! I wanted to join in!

Andi Arndt and Aiden Snow did a phenomenal job with this production! Aiden’s voice was the perfect one to bring Caleb’s tough lumberjack character to life! Andi was the most amazing Fallon! I listened at 3x speed (I know, I blame the ADHD) and it was still easy to follow along with and was very clear quality!

A wonderful story!

My Greatest Joy was one of My Greatest Christmas listens 😁. Everything about Levi and Fallon's story was wonderful from beginning to end. Levi is all about Christmas and Fallon hates the holiday but sparks are flying on those cold winter days and nights. Aiden Snow and Andi Arndt are fantastic narrators, add that to Brooke Fox's amazing writing and you have a spicy Hallmark movie playing in your head.
