As I've learned to expect, a beautifully written and fun read. Maxwell writes wonderfully believable stories with flawed but truly good heroes and heroines

This was a great little holiday story and I probably would have enjoyed it a little more if I had actually read it closer to Christmas, but here we are.. it was quick and had some great moments, I honestly have to say though I am not really one of the parent/nanny story type. Though this book did it well enough it still left me feeling a little meh about the trope as a whole. I love reading Harlequin books as little pick me ups and this one was good for that! 4 stars

I have yet to find a book I haven't enjoyed that has been published by this on publisher. This one is another enjoyable book. 

Colt and Anna make wonderful characters. Both are strong in their own way and bring a feeling of happiness. The story is one that was worth my time reading. I loved each moment from the beginning to the end. I was engaged tnroughout. There is something about a sweet lighthearted story that brightens my day. I gladly look forward to more from this author.

This was my first special edition in forever and it made me realise how much I have been missing out by sticking to a couple of  Harlequin/ Mills and Boon lines only. Maxwell really won me over in this one book and  this was a heartwarming tale that would warm up anyone’s heart these holidays. She truly gets into the holiday spirit in this book and this why this book instantly became a favourite as we gather around Hurley’s Homestyle Kitchen again for some Christmas cheer.

Whilst is it the fifth book of the series, it  definitely can be read standalone and familiar readers will love seeing old favourites popping up again. However for me, I was more intrigued in the  leads and a pair of adorable twins  who brought them together.

It was a quirky situation, I have  read my fill of Amish romances in my time, however Anna’s situation was different from most. She knew that she didn’t fit into the Amish culture that her family has been in for generations. She dreamt of bigger things and I loved that she was willing to make her thoughts and feelings known.    A feisty woman which always good down well in my books as you know that she going not let things go by .

Even though it caused a bit of trouble for her uncle and aunt who wanted the best for her . It worked out well in the end for everyone.  As fate had other ideas and who knew taking a late rumspringa would lead to this quirky situation.

Despite the casting of Anna as an Amish woman who is at a  crossroad with her life. The book isn’t defined by Anna or Colt for that matter. It’s an important part of the relationship and story. However it’s their abilities and emotions  and the fact they are thrown together to care for Colt’s two adorable nephews.

Our hero is a bit of a lone wolf, it is quickly easy to see that he has a chip on his shoulder. Colt  isn’t a bad sort. He just doesn’t know how to deal his emotions.  He just keeps everyone afar, he doesn’t get to close. His job as a FBI agent is his life so when he has some down time. He is a bit of a loss what to do exactly with his leave.  Therefore I loved the clever planning of his sister to thrown him into this situation.

It really made him address things that he had holding back from and  I loved seeing Colt shine and turn into someone wasn’t carrying a chip and could welcome love ones truly into his life..  He transformed into a man who embraced what life had given him.  Getting into the holiday spirit and falling in love with Anna who was waiting for him.

It was cute romance between them and I loved that romance was fitting of their  characters given their backgrounds. Maxwell could have gone a number of ways with this novel but I loved how she did it . She didn’t  drilled into us and show too much of the world Colt  came from. Don’t get me wrong that world is interesting but wasn’t a key aspect of this story showing him in action.   Instead taking the opportunity to explore a man and his heart who was falling for a woman and is conflicted between two worlds.

It’s a beautiful story and Maxwell really brought the Holiday spirit to life.  Santa’s Seven Day Christmas Tutorial definitely lives up its name and gives these two a tutorial that they will never forget

A feel good Christmas read! You have it all. FBI Agent, twin babies, Amish woman, long lost biological family, Santa's elves. WOW. I was able to read this all in one day, I couldn't put it down.
