I really enjoyed this little Christmas story.Grim and Breena were both likable characters who knew exactly what they wanted, and they weren’t afraid to go for it. While this book does focus mostly on their romance, in the true spirit of Christmas there is more at play. Grim and Breena are drawn together in their quest to bring merriment back to Duncreag and their clan leader, but neither are above seizing the opportunity and hopefully each other!I loved the candor between these two characters. There were no misunderstandings or timidity. Their insecurities—Grim, who was battle scarred and not as young as some of the men interested in Breena, and Breena because of her ‘common station’ in life—seemed to put them on even ground. Their chemistry is undeniable from the beginning, and I loved their fierce devotion to each other.This novella has definitely peaked my interest, and I will be checking out other books by Sue-Ellen Welfonder!While it may not have been action packed, this story was filled with a sweetness and love that is perfect for that fuzzy holiday feeling! A perfect read to curl up in front of the fireplace with!
