Love and Joy Come to You

by Rose Card-Faux, Passant Ablal (illustrator)

Next Generation National Indie Book Awards Finalist!

To say that Cora was down on her luck would be the understatement of a lifetime.

Cora’s life and business fell apart after her husband fled the country with most of her money. Now, she’s laser-focused on rebuilding everything from the ground up, and getting into another relationship couldn’t be further from her mind. Then Cora runs into Noah, a hard-to-resist man from her past, and she has to decide if she can trust him—and herself—enough to let someone into her life again.

Love & Joy Come to You is a quiet winter love story and a quick read that you could easily finish in one day.

60 pages, Kindle Edition

I was lucky enough to win this book in a giveaway, special thanks to Storygraph and Rose Card-Faux!

3⭐- this was such a cute holiday novella, Noah and Cora are just the cutest. Too bad the story itself was too short.

Such an adorable holiday novella!

This could easily have been a full length novel and I hope at some point it becomes one! The whole story of rebuilding one’s self after ending a relationship always makes for a great story! I would have loved to explore more of this couples growth. Also the idea of a doggy daycare and groomers is freaking brilliant! I can’t believe I won this in a good reads giveaway and it’s so stinking cuten

Wonderful!

I loved it, but wish that I could have more of Cora and Noah. This little taste just wasn't enough.

4.5 ⭐

This was a cute Hallmark story about starting over after abuse. Noah and Cora are so cute. My only complaint is that it's not longer. I was so sad when it was over.

I won this book through a Goodreads giveaway and I am so glad I did! This was the sweetest Christmas story (with added dog content) that was just a nice novella for the season. I am so excited to see what else Rose Card-Faux has to offer :)

A sweet Christmas story that makes you smile at Christmas time especially. Two young adults down on their luck find each other and together they fill the void that each one had in their heart.

I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway - my first win!!! - so I was excited to read it. But then come to discover it's on Kindle Unlimited, which I have, and it's only 60 pages lmao. This is short, sweet, and utterly forgettable.

I received this book as a Goodreads giveaway and would recommend if you are in the mood for a quick, cute, heart-warming novella. It was the perfect length to give you a glimpse into the start of something new. Shows that there is hope in the future amid the struggles of life.

Insubstantial, shallow, and a bit daft, but short enough to read during a 40 minute lunch.

Was such a cute story with a happy ending. The perfect refresher in between all the series I’m reading!
