Now that Thanksgiving is behind us, my house is clean, and I have moved past my reading slump, I can really dive into all my Christmas reads! The second holiday read I picked up is On Christmas Avenue by Ginny Baird. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Evan, the county sheriff, knows that businesses are struggling in the small town of Clark Creek. But unlike the mayor—who happens to be his mother—he doesn’t think that hiring a “Christmas Consultant,” whatever that is, will help. Especially when this Christmas Consultant proposes a holiday parade that seems likely to overwhelm his staff and leave the town in even more debt.

Mary is sure the parade is going to be a superb fundraiser. She’s going to make sure of it, overcoming every obstacle…including those put in place by the stubborn sheriff. But in the middle of her planning, the unexpected happens: she and Evan begin to see one another in a different light. Could the parade bring about more than one Christmas miracle? This funny, feel-good holiday romance is perfect for fans of Sheila Roberts, Susan Mallery, and Jenny Hale. 

I absolutely loved everything about this book. Do you love Hallmark holiday movies? Do you love books? Then this is for you!!

This book has the small town of Clark Creek on the brink of collapse! There’s only one thing that can save them – a Christmas Consultant, Mary. Mary is planning a parade to help bring people to Clark Creek, but the sheriff (Evan) she is working with doesn’t agree. Will the town be saved? Will Mary get a possible promotion from this? Will Evan ever smile?

This one was a quick read for me, as I immediately fell in love with the characters and the small town that, once again, has me wishing I could live there too. Plenty of holiday activities are sprinkled in, and who doesn’t love a parade?

This book is out now! Thank you to Ginny Baird and Hallmark Publishing for an advanced copy for review via NetGalley. I loved it so much, I ran out and bought a copy for my shelves!!
