By: Lise Gold

Narrated by: Addison Barnes

Hannah Hudson decides to take a break from her busy restaurant and her life in London after her girlfriend, who she thought she’d spend her life with, suddenly walks out on her. She travels to a small boutique hotel in Kirkenes, Norway, hoping to spend a peaceful and relaxing Christmas by herself.

Kristine Miller loves adventure. A bank manager living in a small town in Louisiana, she’ll take every opportunity she can get to explore the world. Kristine travels to Norway hoping to see the famous northern lights but when she meets Hannah, a fellow guest at her hotel, she realizes soon enough that the northern lights might not be the most fascinating thing there.

Both women expected Christmas in Norway to be special but neither of them expected it to bring magic into their lives....

Sweet Christmas Romance

Northern lights is a sweet Christmas Romance. Both main characters Kristine and Hannah are extremely likeable and relatable and the side characters are very distinct and at times hilarious. Set in snowy Norway backlit by the Aurora Borealis, you can't go wrong with this novella. Addison Barnes did a great job at the narration and had distinctive accents for the all the characters from different countries. I'm eagerly awaiting the sequel to continue Hannah and Kristine's love story.

The narrator needs a little work

As she wasn’t that great with certain parts of the story. She did do great on trying to give the characters a proper accent even if she didn’t truly now what to sound like. Overall very enjoyable and I will be listening to more

Love is magical

What a wonderful being to Hanna and Kristine’s love story. Christmas under the norther lights sounds beautiful. These women have a strong connection and are destined to be together. I’m glad their story continues in Southern Roots. Great narration too.

Good book. Holiday romance is always nice!

The author did a great job with the characters. They had good chemistry and were fun to follow. The narrator did a phenomenal job with the characters voices and conveying emotions. Def a book recommended! I'm looking forward to the trilogy!

Short and sweet

This was a nice Christmas listen. Definitely left me wanting more, thankfully there is more to come. Very lovable characters and an excellent story, with beautiful imagery. The narration was fantastic.
