 Book Excerpt:

"Random circumstances brought them together. Love made them family.

Hailey Kirby plans to spend a wonderful Christmas holiday at the Cedar Mountain Lodge with her family, celebrating her sister’s wedding as Maid of Honor. Things go awry when the wedding is called off. Hoping to comfort her sister, her mother and three sisters decide to go ahead with their winter vacation plans at the Lodge.

Hailey works in town as the children’s librarian, and under the pen name of Lee Merriweather, is secretly the author and illustrator of picture books. Young children adore the stories of Charlie and his dog, Zeke, including Regan, the niece of Nick Hensley, a rock star musician who’s recently moved back to Granite Ridge. When he reaches out to the author to seek permission to write songs to go with the stories, Hailey is forced to confess who she is and the painful reason why she’s been hiding behind a pseudonym.

As Hailey and Nick put their creative minds together, they form a friendship that quickly grows to much more. Hailey learns to trust and discovers some life changes are worth taking."

Review:

"Christmas Kisses" by Judith Keim

My Speculation:

This author presents a beautiful story, "Christmas Kisses," so well to her readers in this sweet romance. The four sisters [Hailey, Jo, Alisha & Stevie]from Granite Ridge were really something in how they came together under the guidance of their adopted mother [Maddie Kirby]. It looks like it will be a wedding; however, it was called off, and the family decided to go to the Cedar Mountain Lodge resort since everything had been paid for. And it was there that a childhood friend Nick [musician - Rock Star] finally lets Hailey [Librarian] know he is interested. The story will take off, and there will be some surprises as the whole novel comes together as one will be rooting for Haley and Nick. Will this be a Christmas be one to remember for these two? "Christmas Kisses" was book 2 of 'The Soul Sisters at Cedar Mountain Lodge,' and I am sure the rest of the series will also be very interesting reading.

Thanks to Netgalley for allowing me to read this book.
