The Christmas Promise

By: Nikki Larson

Narrated by: Pamela Gregory

Unwrap the wondrous gifts of Christ and Christmas in this heartfelt novel celebrating love, faith, and family.

At one time, Elise Silverstein’s New York City dreams seemed nearly within reach. But now that her dear husband has died and her money is running out, she reluctantly returns home to the small town of Crystalline Falls.

Hunter Flynn is restless. Expected to work on his dad’s Christmas tree farm with his older brothers, he dreams instead of traveling and settling in some tropical location where he can enjoy the sun and the surf and keep his troubles at bay. At the very least, he needs to find some way to make a contribution and to make a difference in people's lives.

Sabrina Townsend knows what she wants, and nothing will stop her from getting it. And this year, she’s decided she wants Hunter Flynn back. If only Elise Silverstein would get out of the way.

When Hunter runs into Elise, who broke his heart several years ago when she married Wesley, he is reeled in once again by her captivating personality. They were so young the last time they fell in love...and foolish. Now, he is tempted to let himself become all wrapped up in her again. But wouldn’t that be a colossal mistake?

An enchanting story about the joy of Christmas, the importance of family, and falling in love in the most magical holiday season of the year. This is a sweet, contemporary, clean romance with Christian themes, perfect for holiday listening.

Sweet, Christian second chance Christmas romance

Clean and sweet. The main characters are very religious and talk about Christian beliefs but it adds to the story. Great, second chance romance.

Great holiday romance

A sweet, clean, Christmas “Hallmarky” romance. I LOVE Hallmark Christmas movies so listening to this story was perfect for me. I loved this story. Pamela Gregory does an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality.

3.5*

Couldn't quite give it a four. Main character Elise seemed a little shallow to me. While Hunter still carried a torch for her, it seemed to me like the relationship moved pretty quickly considering the trust factors that were evident. It was a sweet, clean and cute story,

Narration was good.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and am voluntarily leaving this review.

The Christmas Promise

This is my first book by this author. While it wasn’t my favorite, it was still a quick short Christmas story.

Sweet second chance

The Christmas Promise is a sweet and clean second chance romance. It’s delightful storyline and wonderful, interesting characters that kept me engaged. The narrator did a nice job with the performance of this book.
