Madison Noelle writes small-town romance with big feelings, slow burns, and the kind of love stories that sneak up on you and never let go. Whether it’s a broody cowboy, a cinnamon roll single dad, or a big found family that feels real enough to hug, her characters bring all the heart and heat.
If you like emotionally messy characters, banter that bites and softens, and endings that feel like home, you’re in the right place.
When she’s not writing, she’s probably rearranging her bookshelves for the tenth time, overthinking a text, or bribing herself with a new plant or an iced coffee to finish a draft.
Book Review ❄️ Christmas in Timber Forge by Madison Noelle ❄️
Snowed-in romance? Check. Grumpy x sunshine vibes? Double check. A rekindled past crush that finally gets its chance under twinkling Christmas lights? Absolutely!
This short Hallmark-style holiday novella gave me exactly what I was looking for: cozy vibes, a dreamy rescue, and a cabin full of festive spirit.
Josie and Jasper reconnect after years apart, and while both are carrying heavy pasts, that shared vulnerability draws them closer.
Favorite quote: “He’s offering me a ride not an orgasm.” 😂 I was cracking up, and let’s be honest—we all knew where things were headed!
🌲 What I loved: - The grumpy x sunshine dynamic (Jasper broody, Josie radiant) - The snowed-in festivities Josie insists on, pulling Jasper back into the Christmas spirit and some of them spicy.... - A realistic HEA—long distance, growth, and eventually marriage five years later
My rating: 4 stars. It lagged a bit in the middle (not a ton of plot or action), but it was still a cute, heartwarming winter read that felt like curling up with a Hallmark movie in book form.
If you’re craving a cozy holiday romance with a touch of humor and a dash of real-world love, Christmas in Timber Forge is worth adding to your TBR.
