Nancy Thayer always gives us a great Christmas Book and this is one of her best to date. It’s Christmas time for the Parsons Family- a multi-generational family who grew up on Nantucket. Jane and her husband Brick Three Parsons (he’s a third, y’all) have become empty nesters so this upcoming Nantucket Christmas Stroll means everything to them as their 3 adult children will return home- all of them having missed Thanksgiving for the first time. Lydia, Florie and Lucas had other plans at Thanksgiving and they’re all busy with their personal lives in a state of flux. Lydia is a successful business woman who wanted to run the family insurance business but is barred because she’s female- that duty will fall to younger brother Lucas. Lucas has some fresh thoughts of his own which may or may not upset the family business. Meanwhile, Florie- the free spirited middle daughter wants to travel the world. The gals are bringing home plus-ones while Lucas has a mystery woman on the island.
Everyone arrives at the Parsons family home with a set of issues. What they don’t know is that Jane and Brick Three are harboring a miracle of their own. What happens next is Christmas chaos- with relationships, high emotions, and doubts trying to seep into the holiday magic. This family is rooted in tradition and belief- and sometimes, you need a little Christmas Miracle to settle things down.
Thank you to the incredible Nancy Thayer and Ballantine Books for trusting me with this ARC freely in exchange for an honest review.
