I received a complimentary copy of this book for review purposes.  I read it in one day. A new twist on the classic Dickens tale A CHRISTMAS CAROL.  Though it had the same premise as the Dickens classic, it is its own story.  I found the authors' substitutes for the ghosts surprising, and the inclusion of angels was a nice touch.  Unlike the classic, this is definitely a romance.  There's even some hanky panky, which I thought was unnecessary. Daphne was a likeable character (sweet and sassy).  I'm still not sure how I feel about Nathaniel (scrooge).  Though this is a Christmas story, I didn't feel it was overly "Christmasy" so it could be read any time (I normally read holiday stories around the holidays).  I liked that author added an epilogue to let the reader know what happened to the characters.  The end of the story felt a little abrupt, but all in all it was a good read.
