Review

A CRANBERRY INN CHRISTMAS was a fun and light-hearted read that included the entire gang from the Cranberry Inn series. It’s told in multiple POVs, but mostly in Brody and Kacie’s as they try to create the perfect Christmas.

I’m not going to spend too much time on this review because the story itself is a novella and is a final farewell to the entire gang and series. It was an adorable read that will leave you with tears in your eyes and a smile on your face. I was surprised⎯and a little saddened⎯to see that the Twinkies didn’t call Brody “Dad/Daddy” after six years of living with him, and this is the only complaint I have. While the story focuses on Brody and Kacie, Viper often steals the show with his dirty and cheeky humour. But I’m still Team Brody all the way. The road trip with Brody, Viper and Andy? Hilarious.

It’s always sad to see a beloved series come to an end, but I thought A CRANBERRY INN CHRISTMAS was the perfect way to say goodbye.
