The Christmas Miracle Series The Christmas Miracle Series are a group of short stories concerning a man discovering love and his adaption to the changes that love brings to his life. The stories are interesting and quickly read, although I would have preferred a complete book. On Easter has a cliffhanger ending, but by this book's release, the reader knows there's more to the story yet to come. I contacted the author to review her books.
Christmas Miracle In July #1 - An interesting little story set in Christmas Town. I didn't know what the story was about, but it drew me in and kept me interested until the end. I liked the characters and the reason for the story. This author hasn't disappointed me with any of her books.

Christmas Miracle On Memorial Day #4 – A lovely “ending” to CMOEaster. A beautiful wedding and forgiveness and a sad surprise, but a heartwarming, well-written story told from Jack’s point of view. A nice book to read during a coffee break or a relaxing break.
Christmas Miracle on the Fourth of July #5 – Begins one year after he first arrived in Christmas Town and picks up in July, after the Memorial Day wedding, with preparations for the Fourth.

This fifth book in Gauthier's lighthearted mystery/romance novella series is set around the July 4th holiday, giving much of the story a celebratory tone that readers will enjoy. Those less inclined to decorate and celebrate every event will identify with Jack, less curmudgeonly than he was at the beginning of the series, but still bemused by Charlotte's love for holidays and decoration.
The mystery in this story develops slowly while the reader is immersed in the lives of Jack and Charlotte, and the other residents of Christmas Town, and sets the scene for the next novella in the series.
It’s an enjoyable and lighthearted read, yet with sufficient momentum to keep the readerkeen for the next book in the series.
This series, set in a town where they love celebrations consists of very lighthearted, fun reads. This book is no different and is a short read about how one couple reacts to the 4th of July, their attitudes are very different, but get significantly closer as the celebrations progress. This is an unchallenging, enjoyable story, and fits in well with the rest of the series. I received an advance copy of the book, and have voluntarily written this review.
Christian has a knack of easing awkward moments. Without hesitation, he sweeps Nancy grandmother #3 along with his mother to check on Holly. Could Jack be any more confused when asked to look into a murder case?
