It is a short, quick read with plenty of layers and details to show a full picture of Bea and Tate, as well as his little daughter, Holly, and the other characters of the town. The medicinal and healing treatments described are so interesting.

The Krispy Kringle cookies are an added element of charm and magic in this heartwarming Christmas story that can be enjoyed during all seasons.

Cheers & Happy Reading!
