A review by katiedermody
The Christmas List by Maren Moore
This was cute and I think my fave of the series! Josie has a new adorable student named Lucy in her kindergarten class and is shocked to discover the girl's dad is Wyatt, the one who got away. They were first loves, grew up together and planned on forever until he broke up with her when he got the chance to go away to play football. He's regretted it other than that he has Lucy now, and his feelings and attraction are back immediately. Josie still feels the attraction but is more hesitate, obviously. The three end up on a team competing to complete a list of holiday activities for the town competition. I liked the way he just went for it and started flirting and telling her how he felt. There was a nice mix of sweet and spice, and for a short novella I thought the pacing was done well. I did think this one would have been good as a full novel, though. Also, I don't know if there are going to be more books in the series (I feel like the author said this is our last trip to Strawberry Hollow) but one of Josie's brothers was teased to have a secret girlfriend, so.... are we going to find out about that?
