Twin Tree Farms: A Novel

by CS Jane

Twin brothers in a long-standing rivalry face off to manage the family tree farm. A story of competition, first loves, hockey, and forgiveness, Twin Tree Farms is a heartwarming holiday tale about reestablishing your roots.

Struggling minor league hockey player, Gem Holly, reluctantly returns to his family Christmas tree farm to help his twin brother, Bry, for the first holiday season after their mom's untimely passing. With sweet memories of skating on the pond, young love, and Christmas traditions, clouded in the aftermath of Bry’s hockey injury, the brothers’ longstanding rivalry intensifies.

Being back in Sweetbush doesn’t just mean a new competition with his brother, it also means Beck, the girl he left behind, a doting niece, and the pressure from a tight-knit community that loves the traditions of Twin Tree Farms. Can Gem and Bry play on the same team as they once did, or will their rivalry get the best of them?

A fun holiday story about thawing out ice-cold relationships, Twin Tree Farms will warm your heart like a spiked cider while searching for the perfect Christmas tree.

Makes you glad Chistmas is coming soon

Twin Tree Farms is like a hallmak movie. The setting of the town where it takes place is where we all wished we lived. The characacters are well developed. The first chapter has you wanting more. I was not expecting to love this book so much.

Heartwarming tale about how a family can sometimes be complicated but true Christmas spirit always shines through. Lovable, well developed characters make it easy to root for them and if their hometown existed I would love to live there. A charming blend of a Hallmark movie and a zany classic like Deck the Halls. The ending will leave you smiling! A must read for a warm and fuzzy Christmas feeling!

Easy to love! Warms the heart and makes you laugh out loud like the holiday classics. Fun twist on the classic family holiday tropes and love that it is about brothers.

The only reason I finished this book was because I needed to meet my goal on here. First of all, miscommunication tropes can go to hell. If the two characters would’ve just had a conversation, everything would be solved. But instead, two grown men act like 12 year olds. Second of all, I found three misspellings which isn’t the end of the world, but also, annoying. If I, someone who is not an author, can spell and be more grammatically correct than an author, we have an issue. Third, the ending wasn’t good enough to make up for the rest of the book. I’d go ahead and skip this one all together

Predictable with an abrupt ending

This was a cute Christmas story but the feud with the brothers lingered way too long and became unrealistic. The book had some spelling and grammatical errors (principle instead or principal and buzzard instead of buzzer). It ended very abruptly.

I absolutely adored this book! The characters were fun and the story line stepped right out of a Hallmark movie! Would love to see this actually become a Hallmark movie. I finished it in 3 days and wanted more! Highly recommend.

I wanted to love it

I wanted to love it, but the petty whining and mean spirited brothers just couldn’t have a conversation like adults and work things out quick enough.
