Every Christmas with You

by C.P. Cabaniss

She’s broken.
All he wants is to make her whole.

Life has taught Landri one lesson: eventually, everyone leaves. Even the guy she met and had an instant connection with when she moved to campus disappeared like a dream that was too good to be true. But when her roommate invites her home for Thanksgiving and the Harts welcome her into their festive traditions with love, she wonders if maybe she has it all wrong. Particularly when it turns out that the mystery guy from campus is none other than Collin Hart, her roommate’s younger brother.

As a visit for Thanksgiving turns into an invitation for Christmas, Landri finds herself celebrating the holiday for the first time. As she grapples with her growing feelings for Collin and the hurt that litters her past, she discovers that happiness is a choice.
If only she can find the courage to make it.

This is a new adult romance with no explicit content. There are mildly descriptive kisses, discussions of abandonment and neglect, and references to body image issues.

About the author

C. P. Cabaniss lives in a small town in the southern United States where she teaches math, imagines—and sometimes writes—stories, and reads too many books at once. She is most inspired while with her horses, meditating in a historic cemetery, or exploring retired naval ships. She loves to travel and has long dreamed of adopting a nomadic lifestyle—though she has yet to determine what this would mean for her collection of books, which seems to grow by the day.

C.P. Cabaniss has done it again!
This was a one-day read that had me staying up way later than I should've been because I HAD to finish it.
I LOVED everything about this Christmas (in July) novel!
The characters were beyond lovable. The family dynamic created within the Hart family feels both too good to be true, but also exactly how a family functions. I can't believe I missed the other Hart family books because I need more of this family.
It was a sweet read that had me smiling, laughing, and wanting to yell at the characters a couple of times (IYKYK).
The storyline was endearing and had me hooked from page one. I loved how the story spanned several years, and we got to see the character development and relationship developments within the MCs.
The text conversations were adorable; I couldn't get enough of them. They helped fill the time gaps, so I didn't feel like I missed anything.
And the setting was perfect! It screamed Christmas in an adorable, lovable way. If Glenwood existed, I would be going there for Christmas ;)

I could gush about this book and the characters all day!

If you're interested, intrigued, or even mildly curious about this book, buy it. Don't hesitate. It'll be 1000% worth it. (Also, go ahead and get the other Hart books too. Knowing these characters, they're all going to be amazing!)

I'd like to thank the amazing C.P. Cabaniss for allowing me to be on her ARC team. This book was an absolute pleasure to read. I cannot wait to read the other Hart siblings' stories. (I will be impatiently waiting for next November to roll around).

*I received this book as an ARC*

I simply cannot handle the cuteness of this book! There’s something so magical about reading Christmas romance! If you love adorable love stories, this is the book for you! They have the cutest banter, and fall hard and fast for each other, but also at the same time taking it slow spanning over several years.
“I’ve been told that when you know, you know. And I know that Landri is the only one for me.” 🥰
There’s the cutest text conversations featured in this, as well as found family, super fun Christmas traditions, and so much more! The Hart family welcomes Landri in with open arms when she was essentially a complete stranger to them, and she immediately becomes one of them. This along with all other C.P. Cabaniss books are a must read, and 5 stars for me every time! I already can’t wait to reread this at Christmas time! 🎄

ARC REVIEW

Glenwood Harts Book #2

Lovable characters 💕
Small Town 🏠
Love Story spanning multiple years 🗓️
Found Family 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒
Christmas Traditions 🎄

Love any of these (or all of these 😉) then you'll absolutely adore this book!

This book covers 4 Christmas seasons which means you get to watch this love story from its prequel and on through it 😍 Collin and Landri are a cute couple who you are routing for from the beginning - even if you get frustrated with them at times! 

If you're worried about the passage of time there are text conversations that help fill in the time gaps!

P.S.
If you've read Christmas Games and Candy Canes you'll see the overlap and love getting the ‘other point of view’ in a few scenes and recognize the characters. If you've not read it, don't worry you won't be confused and don't have to have read it (though I recommend reading it at some point 😁)

I received an ARC of this book and have decided to leave my honest review.

Okay, I am obsessed with Collin and Landri! Every Christmas With You by C. P. Cabaniss follows the love story of Collin Hart and Landri Davis over four Christmases! Each year brings its own unique feelings and TONS of cute moments!! 💕 We see growth in so many ways, including how Landri and Collin’s faith is strengthened throughout their relationship. Landri is best friends with Collin’s older sister, Georgie, which makes the story even more entertaining.

This book is second in the Glenwood Harts series and can be read as a standalone, but has so much more meaning if read with the first. I highly recommend reading this book in July, Christmastime, or really any other time of the year haha. 🎄

A Christmas story where there is a whollleeeee lotttt of yearning, and also love at first sight. Well, may I present Every Christmas with You! This is a sweet small town Christmas romance!! AND THERE IS SO MUCHHHH YEARNING!!!! I really enjoyed this book!! It is always wonderful to see characters that truly reflect the quote, “to be seen is to be known” in romance novels.

Landri and Collin are just so precious together! I love the themes and tropes shared within the story and how it wonderfully intertwines with Christmas Games and Candy Canes.

If you enjoy romance novels, that are faith-based, slow burn, with a lot of yearning, instant attraction, best friends brother, in a small town, and Christmas themed, you are going to love this sweet novel!

Every Christmas With You is a very sweet Christmas romance, where the female protagonist is a relatable young lady. She isn’t skinny and she has lots of childhood trauma. These issues are dealt with without being overly dramatic, but real and normal. Her love interest is a supportive young man, who truly wants to get to the bottom of who she is. I really liked their romantic relationship and the family story. Christmas is the best time to fall in love!


As far as spice level, it is a very clean romance. The kisses do lean more to the passionate side, but I don’t feel they were overly descriptive.

[Annie]

Thank you to the author for my gifted copy. All opinions are my own.

This was a highly anticipated book for me! After reading Christmas Games and Candy Canes, I remember wishing for Collins and Landri's story and the author delivered! The Harts family is one of the best families that has been written. The love and support they have for each other is so real and lovely that it just warms my heart! The romance between the FMC and MMC is so sweet. The Christmas settings are perfection! The book is well written with each engaging page. I highly recommend picking up this entire series! You won't regret it!

[Dana]

I had the opportunity to read this as a beta reader and I absolutely loved it and can’t wait for the book to come out. I will leave a more complete review after it releases so I can share more about what I loved about it. Loved the whole gang again together though that’s all for now.

I received a complimentary copy of this book and was not required to give a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are all my own.

ARC Reader

This was a wonderful book that gave all the Christmas feels. Landri is such a wonderful character with so much depth. I love that she was able to find a holiday that made her happy and dived into 100%. I love the relationship that Landri and Collin have how it started right up until the end of the book. I also love that through all the pain and doubts Landri had she was able to move forward through her life with the family that she not only chose but chose her as well.

[Michelle Houghton]

Romance! A romance that sweeps 4 years. From love at first sight, to discovering they have a closer connection than either one imagined. This is truly all about a young couple pursuing love, faith and each other. Beautifully written, wonderful characters and found family at its warmest. Swoony, sweet, Christian romance that is appropriate for younger and older romance readers.

[Jenn]

This was a fun and sweet story. The romance level was a bit too high for me personally, but I liked the story.

I received this as an early ARC from the author. I was not under any obligation to review and my review is my honest opinion.

[Jessica Baxter]

Aww!! I loved Landri and Collin’s story so much. It was so fun watching their relationship grow and seeing them fall in love. ❤️

I felt this book was beautifully written. I would definitely read if again!

[Sarah Brake]

Super sweet book, I loved the characters! Her history made me sad, but I loved the found family aspect. And so much yearning! Loved it!
