"Magical...a pure delight!" - RITA and Christy Award-winning, best-selling author Susan May Warren

Last December, mystery author Maren Grant had the most perfect night of her life. On a glimmering winter evening, she got to watch the photo shoot for her very first book and ended up on a magical date with the cover model himself—Colin Renwycke.

Fast forward one year. This December, with a looming deadline, restless spirit and her creative spark long since gone, Maren is desperate to get unstuck. And she can’t get Colin out of her head…or his year-old open invitation to spend a couple weeks writing at his family’s farm.

Drew Renwycke never planned to come home and take over the Renwycke family farm. But he’s spent too many years watching his siblings unravel, including his brother, Colin, after one terrible family mistake. If moving to Maple Valley, Iowa, renovating an old farmhouse and switching careers is what it takes to put the Renwycke family back together, he’ll do it.

But his simple plan upends when a scrappy author lands on his doorstep. And she just might be the key to coaxing his brother home. But what if he wants her all to himself? Drew will have to choose between his Christmas wish and the enchantment of a holiday romance that just might be the happy ending they all long for.

A Must Read!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 23, 2022

There are so many laugh out loud moments I had to read alone in the kitchen. It’s a magical, fun, romance, crazy ride. Just what a harried holiday planning mom needed to settle down in holiday joy and remember the reason for the season.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story, I started it this morning and honestly had trouble putting it down. It kept me excited to read and find what would happen next. The story was sweet and perfect to read around the holidays! Can't wait to finish this collection of stories!

This is the perfect quick read for the Christmas season. One Enchanted Christmas is like watching a favorite Christmas movie in front of a fireplace.

I enjoyed this Christmas Novella. I think I need to go back and read the series too since I had WiFi read it to me and didn't connect well the first time.

Another chance to visit Maple Valley? Yes!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 8, 2015

Verified Purchase

I have two confessions: I’m not a novella person. Or a Christmas person, actually. But, I absolutely adore Ms. Tagg’s writing, so I was super excited to read this book! I was also SO ready to revisit Maple Valley! I fell in love with the town in her first novella, Three Little Words, that gave me the first glimpse of this completely charming little town. Then From the Start completely sold me on it. So a chance to revisit such a delightful place while also getting to read more of Melissa’s stories? Sign me up!
What to say about this lovely story? Well, first off, I love the her writing style! The descriptions are so unique, but so completely appropriate and give life to words on a page. And the details she continues to include just add even more depth to the town and the characters therein. I also really liked the narrative style to the story. It was quirky and funny, but so completely Melissa. It allowed the book to span a decent amount of time without the story feeling rushed or forced. It also allowed her to fill in gaps quickly, keeping it at novella length.
Maren and Drew are such compelling characters and I really enjoyed their story. Both of them are trying to figure where they belong, while fighting insecurities and questions about if the path they’ve chosen is the right one. I can definitely relate to them and I had to love how audacious Maren was in finally stepping out and chasing the question of “what if?” She made me want to follow in her footsteps, especially if they led me to Maple Valley, too.
Drew is the serious one, who feels as though the whole world rests on his shoulders, or at least the responsibility of his family. I think he wants to fix everything that’s wrong and maybe the past, while he’s at it. But everything he’s trying just keeps coming back at him. He wants to help, but doesn’t know what to do next. I could also very much relate to this and I’m sure many others probably can, as well. I enjoyed watching Maren pull him out of his shell and really get to know him. He needed someone to help shoulder his burdens and she was the perfect person to do that.
Honestly, I can’t think of a single thing I didn’t like about the story. Which, if you typically read my reviews, you’ll know that’s rather uncommon. I’m a nitpicker, but not this time. Melissa has done an excellent job with this book and I can’t wait for her next one! Though the word “novella” generally leads me to think a light story without much depth, Melissa delivers so much beyond that expectation. This story has depth, a seriousness behind the light moments that made me stop and think more than once. And despite my being a bit of a Scrooge, I adored this Christmas story!

I received an advanced copy of this book from the author for my honest review, which I have given. I was not required to write a positive review and have not been compensated for it in any way. All opinions expressed are my own.

Fairy Tale Magic

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on December 15, 2018

Verified Purchase

A funny, yet thrilling book. An author falls in love with the hero of her book, and when she meets the model for her book's cover, falls even deeper in love. Needless to say it isn't plain sailing because after one dinner date she doesn't see him again. Like a fairy tale fate steps in and her life changes forever. The ideal book to snuggle up with while the wind blows snow in drifts.

Great read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on December 10, 2015

Verified Purchase

Melissa Tagg has done it again, and this time as a novella.
Maren is an author who has had a slight (!) crush on the cover of her first novel. She met the model during the photo shoot and had a lovely date with him. He even gave her a postcard and told her to come to his farm any time. We rejoin Maren a year later. Her second book isn't coming on as well as she'd hoped. She still has the postcard and makes an impulsive decision to go to this farm and see if it can inspire her. The thought of the male model doesn't hurt either! However, when she gets there she is greeted by the older brother who is less than pleased to see her. He has enough on his hands with a recovering drug addict sister and her teenage daughter. Not to mention the fact that he hasn't seen his brother for a year.
The story moves along at a really good pace and you are quickly drawn into Maren and Drews lives. Their romance is touching and I loved their interactions. Every now and again there is an input from the narrator of the story. This actually helps rather than hinders and has the added bonus of giving an outsiders view as to what is happening. I laughed out loud several times and was touched by the sibling relationships as much as the romantic ones.
This book fits in amongst the Walker novels and old friends are mentioned though out the book. You don't have to have read the other books (although you should as they're great!) and we even have a hint at the end that we haven't seen the last of Drew and the rest of his family.

Cute

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on December 15, 2019

I'll get the bad stuff out of the way first.
For the mention of an editor, there are way too many mistakes in this. I know I say that a lot, but it bugs me.
Another thing that I have noticed in many books is how all characters seem to need nicknames. Not everyone has one or needs one. If you're called Ben, you really don't need one. Likewise with Maren here.
With that out of the way, this was a cute and romantic read with a lovely, festive feeling. Read at Christmas time.

An author with writer’s block and a brother trying to unite his family. A lovely cast of characters and small town. Satisfying but not challenging. An easy read and enjoyable.

Finally got to it

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on December 28, 2017

I’ve had this novella sitting in my kindle, waiting to be read, for a couple of years now (shameful, really), along with a few hundred others. Well, I finally got around to reading it and it didn’t disappoint. This is the first of a series, all having to do with the different siblings. Although it’s a series, the story didn’t end on a cliffhanger and it can easily stand alone. I do have the other two books on my wish list, though, now that I’ve read this one and enjoyed it so much. It’s a clean romance with subtle Christian undertones but very discreet as I wasn’t even sure it was a Christian book (no preaching). It has some elements of humour and there isn’t a lot of conflict. Just a sweet, fast-paced romance. I recommend it.
