Christmas on Breakers Point by Chautona Havig (Independence Islands #1)

 

About the Book

Book:  Christmas on Breakers Point

Author: Chautona Havig and Christa DelSorbo

Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance

Release date: September 1, 2020

One man’s last Christmas wish might change two lives forever.

Mallory Barrows has one last Christmas with her uncle. She’s determined to make it the best one he’s ever had.

She knows when she asks what he wants as his final gift, it won’t be a tie or a new mug. He won’t need those where he’s going, and he’s quite happy about that.

Mallory just didn’t think he wanted a miracle wrapped in paper and tied with a shiny red bow!

In a twist on a “last chance romance,” Christmas on Breakers Point introduces a new series featuring five islands, six authors, and a boatload of happily-ever-afters.

Christmas on Breakers Point is the introductory book to the Independence Islands Series.

The Independence Island Series: Beach listens aren’t just for summer anymore.

My Review: 

I have the ebook, but this is the audio book. First of all, this is not what I call a fluffy read. It's a real, nitty-gritty story. Mallory's Uncle Bud is passing, from cancer. That's never an easy thing, but Uncle Bud has strength. His faith in God is strong, and sharp. Before he goes to Heaven, he's worried about a "lost sheep" if you will. Can they reconnect Jonnie with Christ for Christmas? 

While there is some romance, this book is more about closure, faith, death, healing, life, forgiveness and well, just living. It's more a women's fiction than a romance. It's well written and the first in the series. I do love the multiple POV's. That is something that I never get tired of. 

The narrator did a good job with this, making it easier to listen to because I do read faster than I listen to a book.
