Book Review, Giveaway: Christmas, Alabama - Alabama Series by Susan Sands

Christmas, Alabama

Alabama Series


by Susan Sands 


Publication Date: October 26, 2017 
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance, Holiday




Photographer Rachel Prudhomme has finally settled in Ministry, Alabama. Sure, the pace is slower, and she’s had her heart blessed more times than she can count, but putting down her roots where her family is feels right, if only the town’s new doctor, and now neighbor, weren’t so hot and constantly igniting her dreams. How can she keep her vow to steer clear of men when he keeps sauntering across her path?


My Rating:





Favorite Quotes:



The best you can expect as a lovely single woman is open hostility from the other single women and their mommas until you find a man and get yourself off the market.


“There aren’t a lot of unattached men around here that have all the desired qualities.”  Like a decent job and most of their teeth.


You’re blushing like an old maid. Must be a pretty hot memory to bring that kind of red to your cheeks.




My Review:


I enjoyed this refreshingly sweet and entertaining story from start to finish.  Each new character in this quirky small town was colorfully described in vivid detail in an amusing manner that frequently brought a smile to my face.  The main players were intriguing and endearing, although Rachel was initially rather prickly and aloof.  Ministry, Alabama sounds like a unique and appealing community populated with a wide assortment of odd and lively personalities.  Ms. Sand’s writing was easy to follow, well-appointed, and flowed with a smooth elegance that kept me tethered to my Kindle.  I plan to pick up the previous installments to further acquaint myself with this enticing and engaging group of citizens.
