A Christmas to Remember, by Jenny Hale, is a heartwarming story that will leave you feeling cozy and Christmassy! Carrie arrives at the beautiful Fletcher home in snowy Virginia to embark on her last nanny job, ever. It's time to start her own life, not spend 24 hours a day with other families as a live-in nanny. She soon discovers that Adam Fletcher, father of the twins she is nannying, is estranged from his own children and she makes it her mission to mend this disconnect before her time with the family is up. Adam is a workaholic, turning to work to escape his own ideas of his personal failures, but Carrie, along with help from Adam's lovely family members who are staying at the home for Christmas, help him to enjoy the twinkling lights on the tree, sledding in the snow, the smell of peppermint candles and homecooked family dinners, and most importantly of all, the joy and laughter on his children's faces, and the appreciation of family.
The characters are charming, and I especially liked Carrie's bravado and the fact that she did take a year to go off and find herself before settling down. It made me like her even more. This is a book that will get you in the spirit of Christmas for sure, and is a great Winter read, as the descriptive writing of this author gives a very festive, wintry feeling. Happy Reading!

I really enjoyed this book
I really enjoyed this book! It's not a sequel to "Coming Home For Christmas" but if you've read that book, you will love getting to see some of the characters in this book. Carrie tries to get Adam to see how much he's missing by always working, which is mostly his two kids. She means well but sometimes she comes across a bit too pushy for someone who just entered the picture. However, Adam mostly takes it well, which shows how open he is to her being there and how much he really does care about his family. I didn't adore the ending as much as I had hoped I would, but the story is so sweet and the characters are so likeable, even with all their flaws, so the ending was good for them. It's a cute story to read by a fire with a warm mug of hot chocolate, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a nice, light read for the holidays.
