What a wonderful romance story, with a happily ever after. Great characters and great storyline. Definitely a must read

What a cute story to get you in the mood for the cooler months! Elle Douglas brings us the story of Maya and Will. Maya is getting the opportunity of a lifetime and having one of her books adapted into a movie. In walks Will, director of the project as well as Maya's ex-boyfriend from high school.
What could go wrong?
The story takes place during the autumn months but everything is all decked out in Christmas decorations for the movie. Throughout the story, we see both characters grow both individually and as a couple. Elle Douglas is a wonderful story teller and has done a great job bringing this story to life. I highly recommend.

Autumn Nights, Holiday Lights was a fast, fun read. Maya is a small town baker/author whose book is being turned into a movie and (gasp) her high school sweetheart is slated to be the director.

We follow Maya and Will as they, reluctantly, work together to make the movie a successful. A through it all, they find their feelings for each other rekindling.

There were a few spots in the story where Maya’s character wasn’t very likable, but the story was very interesting and I found myself enjoying it.

This was a delight! I loved it! The sequel to Her Fairy Tale Farmer, this is #2 in the Sugar Maple Farms series.

In the previous book we met Maya Monroe when she worked along with Andie Carter, providing fairy-tale themed cakes for Andie’s business, which is planning and hosting fairy-tale themed birthday parties. Her cakes are complex and fancy and popular on Instagram, which is fun. We also learned that she owns the Flour Child bakery and moonlights as a published author of romance novels. In this installment, one of her books is being adapted into a Christmas movie, to be directed by none other than the famous director, Will Hastings. Will was Maya’s high school boyfriend and the one that broke her heart. The cool thing is that the movie is being filmed on location in Sunset County, mostly in the downtown area directly in front of Maya’s bakery. So Maya won’t be able to avoid Will even though she wants to. It’s a second chance romance featuring Will’s persnickety father, a troubled teen called Lucas, and a sweet little rescue pup called Bruce.

The story takes place in autumn, but the movie adaptation is a Christmas story, so the town is being transformed with fake snow and Christmas lights. There are lots of fun cool-weather holiday vibes in here.

I love that Will pursues Maya’s heart even as he is dealing with his aging father, with whom he has a complicated relationship. As he comes back into Maya’s life, he loves watching how she really cares for people and for the integrity of her story, which she is *really hoping* will not get changed during the process of movie-making.

This is a fun series, set in a fun town, and Maya and Will have a lot of chemistry. I hope Elle Douglas continues to write books in this series.
