Review: Christmas With Holly


Christmas With Holly
Christmas With Holly by Lisa Kleypas

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



The first in the Nolan brothers series by Kleypas and although its on the short side (less than 200 pages) it's still a very sweet and cute story. Another feel-good that tugs on your heart when you read about Holly. Her mother (Mark Nolan's sister), passes away in an accident, and is left in the custody of Mark Nolan. Mark and Maggie Collins fall in love and they end up as a happy family by Christmas. It's a really easy read and Holly is the cutest. There were so many "Awww" moments, so if you don't like the mushy, sweet-bordering-diabetic, type of story then this isn't for you.

This story was much like eating a slice of pie.. When you've finished it, you wish you could have more, but you know it was enough to make you full. Overall, its very cute, not a very complicated story, there isn't much depth to the plot. It's really very simple. Man takes custody of niece, meets woman, man and woman fall in love, then they all live happily ever after. It's predictable but it wasn't a bad thing. Just nice to know everything ended well for them and Holly gets the family she deserves. Very cute, 3/5 stars.
