A Wedding in December is one of Morgan's better outings. Fans of Morgan will embrace all of the characters in this story as we see two sisters, best friends, parents, one widowed and one on the verge of divorce.While it may seem the cast of characters is too large, all of them are given strong story lines and it leads to a very satisfying conclusion that does not seem rushed at all.

My Thoughts:

I really enjoyed, A Wedding in December by Sarah Morgan. It's not a fast-paced story, but rather the kind of story that you take your time with, enjoy, and savor. While the beginning had a slower start, things started to really pick up at the half way point.

This is a story about family, self-discovery, and the continuous journey of learning about oneself and growing. I loved that Ms. Mogan gave us three different points of view. We get Maggie, who is an empty-nester and has been separated from her husband Nick for months; Katie, who is the eldest daughter, has suffered from a traumatic experience, and started to doubt her career choice as an E.R. doctor, and Rosie, the youngest daughter, who has had a whirlwind romance, and is now engaged to get married at Christmas time.

All three of these women have secrets that they are keeping from each other, and are battling self-doubt, and emotional distress for different reasons. When the whole family comes together a few weeks before Rosie's wedding day they will each face their individual challenges, as well as challenges as a family. Romance is in the air, as well as Rosie's wedding serving as a catalyst for growth and change.

If you enjoy Women's Fiction, stories about family, self-discovery, growth, romance, and the holidays, you need to check out, A Wedding in December! I enjoy Sarah Morgan's writing style and this story is sure to make you laugh, smile, and see a bit of yourself and your own family in it, due to the authenticity and relatability of the main characters.

Relatable, charming, heart warming and a read that will leave you with all the warm and fuzzies. A novel perfect not only for romance lovers out there but those looking for a story that is full of Christmas spirit. With a beautiful Colorado setting that almost makes me wish it was Christmas time here as well, this truly was an uplifting story that not only felt real but ended with a happy note that will leave you with a smile on your face and sad that the story is over.

A Wedding in December was my first Sarah Morgan novel and I can say with certainty that it won't be my last. I definitely have a new romance author to fall in love with and be excited about.

In the snowy perfection of Aspen, the White family gathers for youngest daughter Rosie’s whirlwind Christmas wedding. First to arrive are the bride’s parents, Maggie and Nick. Their daughter’s marriage is a milestone they are determined to celebrate wholeheartedly, but they are hiding a huge secret of their own: they are on the brink of divorce. After living apart for the last six months, the last thing they need is to be trapped together in an irresistibly romantic winter wonderland.

Rosie’s older sister, Katie, is also dreading the wedding. Worried that impulsive, sweet-hearted Rosie is making a mistake, Katie is determined to save her sister from herself! If only the irritatingly good-looking best man, Jordan, would stop interfering with her plans…

Bride-to-be Rosie loves her fiancé but is having serious second thoughts. Except everyone has arrived—how can she tell them she’s not sure? As the big day gets closer, and emotions run even higher, this is one White family Christmas none of them will ever forget!


Another 5 star read from one of my favorite authors, Sarah Morgan.

Weddings are stressful anytime of the year. Have a wedding at Christmas? Quadruple the stress.

For bride to be Rosie White, the stress of her world-wind romance, of her older sister’s apparent disapproval of the wedding, and her parent’s unusual behavior makes her quickly planned Christmas wedding an angsty, asthma inducing time. Add in the fact her soon to be motherinlaw has taken charge of the affair, and you’ve got the beginnings of Christmas crisis.

For older sister Katie White, a gal who knows nothing about love and everything about medicine, and who is dealing with PSTD, this wedding is wrong on every level and she’s going to try an stop it at all costs.

Mom and Dad have their own problems, namely they are divorcing and haven’t yet told their daughters. But Mom Maggie is determined to cause her younger daughter the least amount of stress that she can so her husband Nick and she fake being madly in love and on their second honeymoon.

What happens when these three women’s issues clash and clamor together? A delightful, insightful, inspiring, lovely story about family, sacrifice, letting go and communication.

I simply adore the way Sarah Morgan’s characters pop of the page and into you hearts.

This isn’t a typical Christmas love story, but a story about family and sacrifice, love and commitment.

5 well deserved stars from me.
Thanks to Netgalley for a sneak peek for an honest opinion.

Sarah Morgan definitely has an aptitude for character development and she is good with dialogue, but I have read so many books similar to this one, that I didn’t see anything special about it.

I love Christmas stories and this one is easily a favorite. Well woven family tale with plenty of drama, heat and sweet.
I was sad when it ended, wish it had gone on forever. The beauty of the Colorado Mountains at Christmas time
is well portrayed. The difficulty of life is also so we'll written that I felt myself involved.
Truly a Christmas treat.
