Christmas on Candy Cane Lane by Sheila Roberts


About the Book
★★★★★
Everyone’s getting ready for Christmas in Icicle Falls, especially on Candy Cane Lane, where holiday decorating is taken very seriously. Tilda Morrison, town cop, is looking forward to celebrating Christmas in her first house…until she discovers that she’s expected to “keep up” with the neighbors, including Maddy Donaldson, the inspiration behind the whole extravaganza. But this year, someone’s destroying Maddie’s precious candy canes! Thank goodness for the cop in their neighborhood.

Tilda already has her hands full trying to sort out her love life and fix up her fixer-upper. Oh, and won’t it be fun to have the family over for Christmas dinner? Not really… Then there’s her neighbor, Ivy Bohn. As a newly single mom, Ivy can sum up the holiday in two words: Bah, humbug. But she’s determined to give her kids a perfect Christmas.

Despite family disasters, irritating ex-husbands and kitchen catastrophes, these three women are going to find out that Christmas really is the most wonderful time of the year!

The eighth book of Sheila Roberts’ Life in Icicle Falls, Christmas on Candy Cane Lane offers a heartwarming read for series’ long-time fans and newcomers alike. This book focuses on three women in Icicle Falls during the hectic holiday season. As each figures out complications of love, neighbors, and holiday spirit, I found myself alternating between smiling, groaning, and wanting to knock some sense into the characters (like I did in my previous trip to Icicle Falls, The Tea Shop on Lavender Lane) and enjoyed every bit of it. All in all, Christmas on Candy Cane Lane tells a delightful story for the upcoming holiday season, and readers of contemporary romance will not want to miss this return to Icicle Falls.

Thanks to Pump Up Your Book, I received a copy of Christmas on Candy Cane Lane and the opportunity to provide an honest review. I was not required to write a positive review, and all the opinions I have expressed are my own.
