A December to Remember by Jenny Bayliss
This is the second book I have read by Jenny Bayliss. The first was The Twelve Dates of Christmas, which I enjoyed so much I gave it 5 stars. She has six holiday novels out so far, and I plan to read them all at some point.
In this book, we meet three half sisters – Maggie, Simone, and Star – just after their father Augustus has passed away. They have not been close for quite a while, not since they spent their summers together with their father growing up. Now they have been given special tasks they must do together to receive their inheritance.
The time spent together jumping through the hoops their father has set up offers them the opportunity to acknowledge the things that had pushed them apart and to decide if they want to take a chance on reconciling their relationships with each other.
This book was such a fun read. I enjoyed getting to know the sisters, who each have their own personalities, histories, and love interests, and I found the small-town setting charming, especially during the lead-up to the winter solstice celebration.
Highly recommend!
