"Cozy " her grandma called in a loud whisper. "I'm in the kitchen. Hurry "Cozy frowned, and her heart leapt as worry consumed her for a moment. Yet as she hurried to the kitchen to find her grandma kneeling at the window that faced the new neighbor's yard and peering out with a pair of binoculars, she exhaled a sigh of relief."Grandma You're still spying on him?" she giggl...more

“Grandma?” Cozy called as she closed the front door behind her. She inhaled a deep breath—bathing in the warm, inviting scent of banana nut bread baking in the oven. “Grandma? Are you in here?”
“Cozy!” her grandma called in a loud whisper. “I’m in the kitchen. Hurry!”
Cozy frowned—her heart leapt as worry consumed her for a moment. Yet, as she hurried to the kitchen to find her grandma kneeling at the window that faced the new neighbors yard, and peering out with a pair of binoculars, she exhaled...more

Reading this book was like someone telling you how they met their spouse. I liked it. I would really like to purchase one of the
little walnut ornaments, they sounded adorable.
I love how Marcia always talks about funny little things. I loved the quote about how, "No women should ever give up her Barbies,
not completely."
This made me think of my sister Karen. Also, I think it is really strange how they changed how Barbie
looked because they didn't want little girls obsessing with Barbies weight...more

10*s. I won a paperback copy of this book directly from the author in return for an honest review.
I have once again stepped out of the comfort zone of genre to expand my reading into another genre.

This was one of those "warm and fuzzy" books which would be a great holiday reader on a cold night with a warm blanket and hot chocolate. Very few main characters so you got to know them quite well. The story was pretty easy reading. No conflict, no drama. Just a cute pair of love stories. I gave it only three stars as I felt there wasn't any real excitement in the story and the "winking" constantly by the male characters got old and tedious. I had hoped thier reactions could have been a little...more
I quite liked this one. Clean, realistic, simple. Nothing overly dramatic. Just a sweet romance... two, actually. :) The only thing that I was disappointed in was that there weren't any author notes at the end of this one, and I love hearing Marcia's insights into the writing of her novels. And I wanted the recipe for Jesse's Raspberry Almonds "that will change your life..." :)
Thanks Marcia - You did it again!
This was the perfect book to read on Christmas afternoon. I started it 3 weeks ago when it was released but have had no time to read since then. Finishing Take A Walk With Me was first on my list of things to do this afternoon.
I loved this book just as I've loved everything Marcia Lynn McClure has written. A wonderful holiday romance. Can't wait until this gets turned into a full length book. Such fun characters in this sweet romance.

This was a short sweet Christmas romance. It's actually two romances for the price of one with one older couple and also a younger couple. The heroes are a grandfather and his grandson, and the heroines are the grandfather's neighbor and her granddaughter. Both couples were adorable, and I'd love to read more about them.
It almost feels blasphemous to give a Marcia book only three stars, but I prefer her historical romances. The endearing cheese just seems to work better when the setting is not contemporary. However, this will put a smile on your face if you're looking for a sweet, clean romance to encourage some Christmas cheer.
For anyone with a spunky grandmother you will really get a kick out of this story! Oh how I laughed and thought of the antics my grandmother always seemed to be up to. It is a fun contemporary romance in which a grandmother and granddaughter both find love. I also like that this story is set during the winter around Christmas time. I was ready for snowballs, sugar cookies and warm cider.
Great little story... as usual! In this one, grandma and granddaughter both find love with grandpa and grandson. Jesse only has to come to Cozy's rescue once, and the rest of the story is filled with their budding relationship. Not as flirty or as overwhelming in terms of heroics, but still a great read!

I absolutely loved this book! It was so wonderful to take a break from freaking out about finals to read such a happy, heart-warming book. I smiled and giggled tons throughout the book. I LOVED it! It is probably one of my favorite romances ever! I will definitely being reading it ever year from now on. :D
You know I always love books my Marcia, so it is no secret that I loved this one as well. This book has not one, but two budding romances to follow...and as usual, lots of good kissing ;) Mix in Thanksgiving, Christmas lights and long walks in the cool Autumn air and you have a cute story.
Oh my gosh! Marcia definitely is the queen of kissing! This book definitely made me salivate, in more ways than one. This was such a fun, light-hearted, holiday book. It made me all warm and fuzzy and in the mood to snuggle in front of a fire. Thanks for another great book Marcia!
same ol, good ol, sappy. Cute story line. Loved the side story with the Grandma. The book deceived me though, I thought there were 15 pages left but it was just captions from other books so I was kind of banking on an epilog and didn't get one so was slightly disappointed.
LOVED this book!! Jesse was so wolfish and delish!! Loved the romance with Dottie and Buck too!! Marcia did it again with a wonderful love story with great kissing!! Another favorite....ok, they all are!!This is definitely a must read!!
I loved this book! Jessie is perfect in looks and his actions, quite the guy! Cozy is great to fun, smart,and sweet! Their relationship was fun to watch unfold. Just what I needed at this time of year,great story!
I'm pretty sure this is My FAVORITE E-book ever. It was won over by the kissing scenes...delish! Oh and the Wolfish man, Christmas light paradise scenes and the cracked candle votives. Need to try the almonds!
I love it, as I love all her books. But as with all (or at least most) her ebooks, I really wish I could proof read them before they come out. All those little errors distract me from the story, but I still love them anyway.
I especially loved the holiday feel of this book :)

I love this book!! A great holiday read! I love Grandma Dottie! She and Buckly are awesome!! Jesse and Cozy are great!! I love Marcia's books and wait (very impatiently) for everyone of them!!!
Not my favorite of hers...far from it, actually...but still good, clean romantic fluff that puts a smile on you face and makes you want to kiss your husband a bit more passionately. hahaha
When I rate Marcia's books I rate them against themselves. The other ones that she has written. As this was not my favorite it was not bad. I usually am not partial to her modern day romances.
I read this tonight as I sat on my couch with my warm corn bags in front of my lit Christmas tree snuggled up in a blanket with hot apple cider. Such a FABULOUS holiday romance...I thoroughly enjoyed my evening...every last page of it. :)
This title makes the book even better some how! I loved it! It is true what Marcia says about our society today! It's a good thing my husband still opens doors for me!!
I feel horrible leaving a two star :-( because I love this author! Man this book was only 120 pages and that was still too long for me! Not my favorite, and not a reread
What a cute story. I love how there are two romances going on in this book. I love the songs they talk about in the book like "sippin cider through the straw" My sister and I used to sing this song all the time what a great song. It made me smile when I read it in the book.Also loved how he called her little red riding hood. I have that song and love it too. This book brought back great memories of singing some great songs. I really liked this book. Fast read but what a great Christmas story. My...more
Fun book. It's just too short. I loved the Christmas theme and the homemade gifts. Raspberry almonds do sound like a treat I would like to try.

Got this one for free from a friend. It's short and quick and Christmassy. And Sappy. Let's just admit what we're all thinking.
Super cute and fun holiday book. (Good to read anytime of year) Quick easy read. I loved it except for the old people kissing - yuck! Haha. :)
I really loved this book, the first contemporary romance I have read in a long while. Morally clean, with only a bit of mild language (i.e. ass, damn, etc). Sweet double romance. Only wish is that it was longer.

Born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Marcia Lynn McClure grew up influenced by the reminiscent stories of rugged, rural Colorado farm life fascinatingly recounted to her by her parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts…tales of runaway buckboards, mule-drawn plows and dust pneumonia; verbalized images of stream-flooded meadows, frozen over in winter, where a child could peer through the crystal clear ic...more
