Synopsis
When fall rolls around, it’s time for Kerry Tolliver to leave her family’s Christmas tree farm in the mountains of North Carolina for the wilds of New York City to help her gruff older brother & his dog, Queenie, sell the trees at the family stand on a corner in Greenwich Village. Sharing a tiny vintage camper and experiencing Manhattan for the first time, Kerry’s ready to try to carve out a new corner for herself.
In the weeks leading into Christmas, Kerry quickly becomes close with the charming neighbors who live near their stand. When an elderly neighbor goes missing, Kerry will need to combine her country know-how with her newly acquired New York knowledge to protect the new friends she’s come to think of as family,
And complicating everything is Patrick, a single dad raising his adorable, dragon-loving son Austin on this quirky block. Kerry and Patrick’s chemistry is undeniable, but what chance does this holiday romance really have?

Thoughts
This is a light, cute holiday story. Perhaps a little too light and cute. It’s a book that I’m happy I read, but won’t reread. Like most of my holiday romance books, it went to a new home via our little free library once I finished it.
Like a majority in the holiday romance book niche, this is very much what you see is what you get in terms of cast and plot. There isn’t much depth, nor any big surprises. But, if you’re looking for another Hallmark movie style book that will leave you with a warm heart, this should do the trick.
