A Christmas Surprise was a sweet clean historic Christmas novella that I rather enjoyed.  Other than Jane Austen & Jane Eyre, dozens of Holocaust tales & a handful of other books, I’ve not read a lot of historic novels. I think I am going to start reading more of them.I admit there were some terms I had no clue what they meant.  Somewhere in my upbringing I’ve missed out on the definitions of words like “hoyden”, “rakehell” & “ton”.  At least I’m learning something new as I read books like this one.There was no build up in this one as it was love at first sight which is not my favorite way for a relationship to develop.  At times I found myself a little confused as to who was who and who knew what but I guess that was part of the point of the story.I never really felt that heart fluttering spark while reading about their interactions together but both the hero and heroine were likable characters who you wanted to see end up with a happily ever after together.  The story wrapped up way too quickly and I had a few questions that never got answered but overall this was great little book easily read in one short sitting.There were a few plot twists and turns that kept me turning the pages and this was a book I have no regrets in taking the time to read.  It was just a quick, clean, fun read that left me smiling.Recommended to those who enjoy sweet, clean historic romances.Rating: 3.5 Stars – Good BookContent: CleanSource: Review CopyGenre/Age Level: Clean Romance appropriate for Young Adults
