Christmas at Clove Cottage

By: DeAnna Kinney

Narrated by: Kelli Tager

Dahlia Dawson is a spunky young woman with a zest for life, but an illness threatens her dreams of a bright future. With her bucket list in hand, she sets out to spend Christmas at one of several Christmas cottages along the breathtaking Chestnut Lake.

Expecting the brisk mountain air, hot cups of coffee, and a roaring fire to be her only company, Dahlia’s dreams of a Christmas escape do not include a grumpy, stiff neighbor who seems to hate life...and Christmas itself.

Realizing her purpose for coming to Clove Cottage, Dahlia becomes determined, with the aid of a wise old caretaker and his crazy dog, to show the handsome Nixon Chambers the true meaning of a magical Christmas.

Christmas comes only once year, but Christmas miracles can last a lifetime.

Love this short!

Sometimes a quick listen is just what I need to keep me going, and DeAnna Kinney has it with this novella! Dahlia Dawson is terminally ill, and upon her diagnosis created a bucket list. One thing she wants to do is go away to a cabin alone for Christmas, and this is the time she does it. But is it all she thought it would be? She meets the cranky neighbor and his dog, and Nixon, the handsome man who comes by to help her. Even with those close by, things are not what she expects until she figures out exactly why she is there. This book has a wonderful message, loving characters and that feeling of warmth I love. It's my first listen by this author and I will be watching for more.

Kelli Tager finds her voice with this narration. I had not heard her before, but she fits in these characters so easily, it's like I am watching it unfold. I enjoyed her voices, her pace and look forward to more narrations by her.

all the feels

I love christmas stories. this one was short but sweet. I expected to end up broken hearted, but the story was so much more.. It did not feel like a story that was less than two hours. Totally unexpected but very welcome. This one was so sweet.

clove cottage

A miracle come true holiday romance. This really pushes the envelop of the imagination to believe this, but it is the holiday season so....
It's inspirational and uplifting and great for the
holiday fels. The narrator was great. I voluntarily listened to this and am giving an honest review.

Beautiful Performance

Like listening to a Hallmark movie! I enjoyed listening to this book on my commute—it had me longing for a blizzard. A cozy, heartwarming Christmas story, and a beautiful performance by Kelli Tager!
