About this ebook

Spend the holidays in the charming town of Crimson, where the best presents of all come from the heart—from the USA Today–bestselling author.

LOVE ON THE MOUNTAIN

Peace and quiet—that’s all Connor Pierce wanted from the rented cabin on Crimson Mountain. Yet the caretaker turned out to be lovely April Sanders—a total distraction. As were the two little girls she was caring for. Connor’s plan to forget his painful past soon detoured into giving the ladies a Christmas to remember.

Being named guardian of two motherless girls has upended April’s world. Add to the mix a mysterious, brooding writer claiming he wanted to be left alone while going out of his way to bring a little joy to the girls, and she has quite the quandary. April had counted herself out of a happy ending. But maybe Santa still had a few surprises up his merry old sleeve . . .

Add a spoonful of heart, a dash of hope and a sprinkle of drama to bake up a batch of memorable romance. A little balance never hurts, so a double dose of cuteness will add laughter to the heartbreaking moments. Michelle Major gives readers something to thing about with her heartwarming brand of storytelling. While in the most trying of circumstances Connor and April learned the meaning of hope and discovered that an open heart can lead you to the place you were meant to be, HOME. I've read Michelle Major long enough to know that her recipe for success is simple. Christmas on Crimson mountain proves the power of her method.

Christmas on Crimson Mountain by Michelle Major. April is taking care of her friends children, trying to decide whether to keep them or let them go to their aunt. Their mom though wanted her to have them so she decides to let them have the best Christmas ever with her. She is a caretaker of the Lodge where Connor is staying to finish writing his book (that he has been struggling with since his wife and son died). He wants her to keep the kids quiet and out of his way so she does her best. I really liked the fact these characters had such emotions and I would really recommend this book to anyone looking for a good book.

What makes a holiday read a winner for me? Beyond the snow, the caroling, and the cookies, there has to be that extra something, that bit that hits me in the heart and leaves me feeling uplifted and renewed. CHRISTMAS ON CRIMSON MOUNTAIN by author Michelle Major hits the marks in every way, and left me feeling just like I'd hoped. Each of the main characters in this book have suffered loss at a significant level. Sickness, disease, death, all have made their mark on April, Connor, Shay, and Ranie. They have been left the worse for their experiences, and there are so many barriers to break down, but what makes this book a good holiday read is the prospect of hope that it delivers. Author Connor Pierce has put himself on permanent shutdown since the tragic death of his wife and son. Hoping that the solitude of Crimson, CO, will help him break through a bad case of writer's block, he is less than pleased that the woman acting as caretaker during his visit is also taking care of two young girls. Connor is the epitome of broken, unwilling and unable to connect with people since the loss of his family. Having had a rough time of things themselves, April Sanders and her two young charges need love and compassion more than anything else. In a lovely and heartwarming way, these four broken people find a safe place in each other, and, ultimately, find themselves. I especially love Ranie and Shay, the young girls in April's care. They are great examples of the resilience of youth, and just blossom under Connor's and April's attention. Ranie is everything you'd expect in a snarky 12-year-old, but, beneath the sass and prickliness, she's just a girl that's had to deal with far too much in her young life. And, Shay, sweet Shay, is like a true ray of sunshine, even having lost so much. These girls do so much to bring Connor and April together, and to make the story that much more lovely. CHRISTMAS ON CRIMSON MOUNTAIN was my first of Michelle's books, but it will not be my last. If you're having a hard time getting into the spirit of the season, pour yourself some eggnog and snuggle up with this 4.5 'heartwarming, feels like home' star read and prepare to fall in love.
