I am officially completely obsessed with this series! I was so excited to receive this approval to do this ARC. I had just finished book 1 and 2 in October so it was perfect timing! this is seriously the most perfect Christmas book!

Some Tropes:
🎄Grumpy x Sunshine
⭐️Small Town
🎄Forced Proximity
⭐️One Bed
🎄Second Chance

This book has my 2 favorite things. 1. Small town romance and 2. Christmas . Dream Harbor is the most perfect town and I’m devastated it’s not a real place! The characters in this book were perfect. There truly isn’t anything else you need to ask for from this book!

Thank you to @netgalley , @harpercollins360 , @onemorechapterhc and @lauriegilmore_author for giving me the opportunity to do this ARC! I am so grateful for this opportunity!

2.75 stars but rounding up to 3

This was cute and brought the cozy Christmas vibe that was promised! I ended up liking these characters and the dynamic of their relationship, even though I was a little wary of this setup in the beginning based on the first two books set in this universe. It was a new experience for me, reading a grumpy/sunshine trope where the FMC was actually considered the "grumpy" one. However, I tend to get picky with the grumpy/sunshine trope, and to me, this kind of felt like the FMC was not actually grumpy and she just kind of got randomly defensive and snappy out of nowhere and then would just go back to normal at the drop of a hat. And the MMC was not really sunshine-y either, he was just a nice guy with an incessant need to fix everything. Also, the ending left me a bit unsatisfied. I think both characters brought interesting personal issues to the table that I would've loved to seen actually addressed, but I feel like it got kind of rushed and glazed over in the last 20 pages or so. I really wanted to know how Kira's self-healing journey went!

I absolutely loved The Christmas Tree Farm! This series has been one of my favorites, and I was thrilled to see a Christmas-themed book added. Kira and Ben’s dynamic as the grumpy, Christmas-hating farm owner and the sunshine-y visitor was such a fun twist, especially with the whole small-town Christmas vibe. Their back-and-forth made me laugh, and I enjoyed seeing Kira slowly warm up (literally and figuratively) to both the season and Ben.

The holiday setting, combined with the forced proximity and “one bed” tropes, made this feel like the cozy, festive rom-com I didn’t know I needed. As someone who loves both Christmas books and this series, I was all in from the start. If you’re in the mood for a light, spicy holiday romance, this one is such a treat!

Thank you to NetGalley for providing this ARC in exchange for my honest review!

Book #3 in The Dream Harbor Series. I loved it just as much as the first 2. It had all the small town feels added with a Christmas “Hallmark-y” feel! I’m here for it! Love, love, love!! Can’t wait for book #4!

Thanks to NetGalley and Harper 360 for this digital ARC.

The Christmas Tree Farm is book 3 in the Dream Harbor series. You can read this as a standalone, but I do recommend starting with book 1 to really understand all of the character's backgrounds and motivations. Kira hates Christmas... too bad she just bought the local Christmas tree farm. Everyone wants her to reopen it, but she is hesitant and not in the Christmas kind of mood Bennett is in town to visit his sister, but his life is going to change once he bumps into the grumpy Christmas tree farm lady...

Great spicy cozy story, perfect for the holiday season!

I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this book so much that I bought a physical copy of it so I can read it again. I loved the other two books in the series and I this one was just as wonderful!

This was such a fun and cute Christmas romance with some Christmas magic. :)
This is the 3rd book in this series, I actually read the first one and 3 starred it. I would say this one was much better. There was quite a bit of spice in it too. Gives you all the Christmas feels!

Loved the characters and how their stories developed. Hopefully we will hear more about them in the upcoming series.

For sure makes me want to go back and read 2.

I received an ebook copy from @netgalley and @harpercollins360 for my honest review. I also loved it so much I purchased a physical copy already too. :)

Very cozy romance Christmas book about a lady trying to start a new life and buying an old Christmas farm, that she's not supposed to start up but does, and a guy who is visiting his sister while working remotely from her store and falling for the hostile Christmas Tree Farm owner. It is funny, with love, Christmas vibes and some romance.

The Christmas Tree Farm is the third book in the Dream Harbor series by Laurie Gilmore.
I have not read the other two books, but I have to say I did enjoy this one. I am going to go back and read the first two in the series.
Kira North really hates Christmas so the only thing she can do is buy a Christmas tree farm.
Bennett Ellis is on vacation and has his mind set on getting away from some of the worst dates he has ever been on.
Well let me say you have to read this one because the story will hit every emotion you can have while read a book about Christmas- cute men- female that does things without thinking first and the characters in the town make for a fun good and book you can’t put down.
The cover of the book is great!
Thank you NetGalley, Laurie Gilmore and Harper 360 for the copy of The Christmas Tree Farm.
This is my personal review.

Oooooo what a spicy , sweet, warm hug of a book. I've fallen for Laurie Gilmores Dream Harbor series and athe Christmas Tree farm did not disapoint. Oh how I loved Kira and her sassy,snarky, can do it myself , attitude and Bennettas the sweet, kinda spicy cinnamon roll. The tension leading to their first kiss was perfection. If you're looking for a fun, hallmark after dark Christmas book set in the most wacky yet delightful town this is the one for you!

I was really looking forward to this one, but I think it’s not for me.

I found the writing repetitive, the characters personalities felt bland. I did like the overall premise, but I got to about 60% of the book and we still had almost the same conversation points between the main characters. It did truly feel like a hallmark movie, so you might like it if love them.

Bonus points for the dogs and the christmasy vibes 🎄

Huge thanks to the publisher and netgalley for my free ecopy ⭐️

Synopsis
When Kira moves to a small town to try to make it on her own as a homesteader, she unknowingly buys a Christmas tree farm and must make do with what she has despite hating Christmas. Along comes Bennet (aka my new favorite book boyfriend *GEEEEEZZZZZ give me a man who has a dirty mouth and will fix things around my house without asking any day of the week!)
He is on vacation and doesn't plan on being in Dream Harbor long. As an outsider too the town thinks Bennet is the perfect person to warm Kira up to the town and melt the ice so to speak.
Only a snowstorm comes through and they are stuck together in a small cabin in the woods until the roads are cleared. Shenanigans ensue.


Thoughts
I love all of Gilmores work and this one did not disappoint. As a Christmas lover I knew I HAD to get my hands on it ASAP!
If you also love Christmas pick this one up this season you won't regret it!

Thank you Netgalley and Laurie Gilmore for the ARC of this book. Can't wait for the next.

Book 3 in the Dream Harbor series redeemed itself just in time for the holiday season.

Kira buys a farmhouse to live out her homesteading dreams without realizing it comes with a beloved Christmas Tree Farm. In order to get things up and running, there's a lot to do. Good thing Jeanie's brother (our FMC from book 1) is in town and has taken a liking to Kira...

This was a very cozy, atmospheric holiday book. It had a bunch of typical winter activities and I enjoyed this love story soooo much more than Hazel & Noahs. No one will compare to Jeanie & Logan but it looks like likeability runs in their family. Kira's attitude towards moving to this small town on her own is very relatable, but so is Ben's people-pleasing. Their personalities actually mesh very well once they stopped beating around the bush.

I will definitely recommend this winter

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC! This book felt like a classic Hallmark Christmas movie but with spice. It’s a small town romance with a grumpy x sunshine dynamic. Kira is not the most likable FMC, she’s standoffish and initially kind of rude to Bennett and the residents of Dream Harbor. Her behavior seems a little odd since she’s trying to make her Christmas tree farm a success. I enjoyed her banter with Bennett and her improvement as a person by the end of the story.

The Christmas Tree Farm by Laurie Gilmore was a fun book that put me in the holiday spirit. I enjoyed Ms. Gilmore’s character development and the storyline was very enjoyable and a little steamy, too! This was definitely a feel good book which was perfect for me. Thank you to Ms. Gilmore, NetGalley and Harper Collin’s Publishers for allowing me to review this book.

Loved it just as much as all the others but this one was actually my favorite! I want more! I loved that this book had a strong female character starting over and an equally strong male character. I love small town romance books.

By Far my favorite of the three books in the series.

Ben was so perfect & Kira the perfect Grinch. This is such a cute cozy holiday mystery with a little spice.

Such a quick and easy read, perfect for the Holidays.

Love my Christmas stories! This is #3 in a series that I have been reading and it is another sweet romance. Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC.

I received an ARC of The Christmas Tree Farm in exchange for an honest review, and I’m so glad I did! This charming holiday romance has everything you could want to get into the festive spirit. The characters are warm and relatable, the setting is picturesque, and the story is full of sweet moments, with just the right amount of spice to keep things interesting. If you’re looking for a heartwarming, feel-good read this holiday season, this book is absolutely perfect. It’s the ideal mix of romance, holiday cheer, and a little extra magic to make it an unforgettable read.

This was a JOY!!!

The perfect mood to get you ready for the holiday season. It's got everything you want: Christmas Trees, doggos galore, golden retriever x black cat energy, snowed in, and great spicy moments.

I truly love this small town and the quirky characters that are always in each other's business. I am OBSESSED with Bennett. He was such a fantastic MMC and I really liked his and Kira's dynamic.

I am so invested in this series and I cannot wait to continue this series.

I personally NEED an Annie and Mac book!!!

Overall, the perfect holiday, cozy read.

Thank you Netgalley, Harper Collins, and Laurie Gilmore for the eARC in exchange for my honest review.
