The Twelve Nights of Christmas
by
Sarah Morgan
Evie Anderson’s dreams have just
come crashing down all around her. She had thought London would be
exciting but instead she’s broke, evicted, and Christmas is
approaching. Surely it can’t get any worse! Unfortunately, things do
get worse and now she’s dealing with Rio Zaccarelli’s anger and
suspicion. Is there any hope of Evie getting a happily-ever-after when
she’s dealing with such a Scrooge?
Sarah Morgan does a phenomenal job with character development. It’s
hard not to cheer for Evie as she is a victim of misfortune- and yet,
she never gives up. Her unshakeable faith in the midst of her multiple
heartaches is admirable, but it is her desire to make her Grandpa happy
that touches the reader’s heart. Rio is a bit more difficult to like as
he is prickly from the very page. However, Sarah Morgan more than
redeems him as the story unfolds.
Sarah Morgan provides some fascinating twists in THE TWELVE NIGHTS OF
CHRISTMAS, some occurring fairly early on while others are saved for
the very end. I particularly like the fact that she is willing to show
her character’s flaws while also showing their strengths overcoming
them. What a perfect tale for the Christmas season!
