Review: Christmas presents
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 09 7, 2012
Christmas Steele was and is a continuation of the characters in the Lacy Steele Mysteries. I ran into a problem with the time placement of the book. Yes it was Christmas but in what relationship to book 1, 2 and 3. Certainly after 1 but definitely before 3. Having read the "mysteries" first, I had to pretend I did not know the ending but then again, I did get to meet the mom and that gave a little insight. Perhaps it should be told to read before number 2 or number 3 to keep the characters in context. I do enjoy reading this author, Vanessa Gray Bartal. I would give it five stars for having a moral code but, only three as I kept letting previously read story lines get in the way.Gloria Urban
