Loved This Beautiful Holiday Story

Henry works as a night watchman at a museum in Chicago. Painfully shy and just as lonely, Henry spends his days creating beautiful paintings featuring the people he sees every day. One day, his museum receives a new painting to exhibit and Henry is captivated by the woman portrayed within. For 10 years he spends every spare moment in front of the painting, talking to her and imagining her by his side at night.

This was a well written short story, touching and sweet. Despite the fact that it was only an hour, I really felt like I knew the characters. Henry's background was developed enough to show his painful past, and show what a kind and selfless person he was. The resolution brought happy tears to my eyes. The narration was well done and it immersed me in the story. I requested a copy of the audio, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

Thank Goodness it was short

It was a nice Christmas story and the length made that possible. I don’t know if I’d be able to listen to a longer book of this story, especially if it’s not flushed out. I felt like the story was rushed and I lost my attention a couple of times.

Excellent!

audiobook, love, holiday-themed ----------------
A truly beautiful story exceptionally well written. Everything is so well described that people and paintings are easily visualized, and the emotions portrayed are felt by the reader. Don't miss this gem!
Tom Jordan exhibits true genius in his narration.

Merry Christmas Henry

I really enjoyed listening to this audio. Tom Jordan was a great narrator and probably the perfect one for this book. He embodied each character and brought this great story to life. Aubrey is a great author and I can't wait to read and listen to !it's of her books.

Quick, sweet Christmas listen

POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD

At about an hour long, Merry Christmas, Henry is a quick listen. Aubrey Wynne has created a story in which Henry, a security guard at the museum who is actually a crazy talented artist, essentially falls in love with a woman in a painting. Ten, twenty years go by, and Henry doesn't change much and is content with his woman in the painting until one magical holiday season.

Tom Jordan did a great job narrating. He has a good voice for narration and I would listen to another of his performances in the future. As for the story itself, it was short and sweet. While I would have liked to have seen a bit more depth from the story itself and the characters, it was a nice, quick listen. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher for an honest review.
