When it comes to this entire series of books (Cranberry Inn, Viper's Heart, Even the Score) I have to say I love them all, and A Cranberry Inn Christmas is no exception. A Cranberry Inn Christmas is not as standalone, it's a companion to the series, a true gift from Beth to her fans and the perfect conclusion to this series. Ever since I read Cranberry Inn, I've been ridiculously invested in these characters lives. Not only Brody and Kacie, but also Viper, Micelle, Andy, Dani, even Darla. Well, guess what? We see plenty of all of them in this book.
In A Cranberry Inn Christmas, Kacie wants to give her family the perfect Christmas. With the twins getting older and things changing, she wants this Christmas to be extra special, that is until she receive some unexpected news that change everything, her mom has sold the Inn! Brody, being the awesome husband that he is, comes up with a plan to save Christmas and truly make it the perfect holiday. Of course Brody can't do it alone so he enlists the help of the entire gang!
This was super sweet, it was also a fast, short read, which is perfect for a Christmas novella. We get to have one last chance to hang out with these characters that have become beloved to us and it's great. I also love that is told in multiple POVs, mostly Brody and Kacie's but also Andy, Viper and Michelle. We still get to see the struggles of playing hockey and trying to still be present for the important family milestones. There's a lot of swoony moments, hello, it's Brody Murphy! And lots of funny situations, especially when all the girls get together, and tons of other funny moments thanks to Viper Clause. lol, yes, Viper Clause! Also, there's some additional surprises and an epilogue that will make you swoon!!!!
I truly loved everything of A Cranberry Inn Christmas. If you've read all the books, you must pick this one up this holiday season, and if you haven't read Beth's books, what are you waiting for? The Cranberry Inn series is Kacie and Brody's story and starts with Room for You, the Viper books (my personal favorites) start with Cement Heart, and Andy's book which is Even the Score. I absolutely recommend all, you will not be disappointed!

4.5 “twinkadinks” stars!!!
A Cranberry Inn Christmas is a heartwarming holiday story that also wraps up the Cranberry Inn series. This is definitely not a stand alone, and you must read the previous books in the series.
It’s the holiday season, and Kacie Murphy wants to have the “perfect” Christmas, especially for her 4 girls. When she finds out that her mother is selling the inn, she is devastated. It is the place full of childhood memories and where she started her life and family with Brody. So her amazing husband, Brody, decides to try to make the last Christmas at the inn “perfect” for his wife and family. Of course, it isn’t as easy as it seems, and life has a few surprises.
I have loved this series from the very beginning. It is just an honest, sweet romance. No OTT drama, just two kind hearted people falling in love supported by friends and family. I highly recommend this series to anyone looking for a “perfect” romance.

I am so sad to say goodbye to these wonderful characters and terrific writing. For a novella, it wrapped up everything so perfectly and left me completely sated. This should be read at the very end of the interwoven series by Ehemann. I recommend that you read them in the following order -
Room for You
Room for More
Room for Just a Little Bit More
Cement Heart
Wild Heart
Even the Score
A Cranberry Inn Christmas
After many years of service, the Cranberry Inn is shutting down. Kacie is beside herself so Brody knows he has to do something to save Christmas. Brody, with the help of the gang, come together to make this is best Christmas ever! With a winter storm brewing, will Brody be able to live up to the challenge? The happiness of his girls depends on it.
Guys, these series is so realistic and minimal drama. It is a whole lot of cuteness and bromances. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a heartwarming story. Ehemann delivers. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
5 stars!

I can't tell you enough how much I love this book and the Cranberry Inn gang. I've read Brody and Kacie's story a year or two ago and usually, I lose interest when a follow-up book comes out. But because I love their story, I cannot not read this one. Their story is amazing! As well as all the characters. It's perfect.
In this book, it shows how important a family is. And how much a man can do to make her woman happy. To make her Christmas a perfect one. And in this book, we also got two more amazing men, Viper and Andy. They're all amazing. They had a perfect Christmas.
I just wish, I've read her other books too before reading this one. And I'm sad it's really the end of this series.

What a perfect novella for the holiday season a and Happy Thanksgiving to anyone who reads this.
This is going to be a sweet and short review.
I love the Cranberry Inn gang. I fell in love with Beth Ehemann's writing style while reading Room for You (Cranberry Inn Book 1). The mix of cool as can be Hockey players and their patch-work families really worked for me. I think the family bonding time was what made these books stand out for me.
Stories about second chances after disappointment have a special place in my heart. Finding love again in the most unexpected ways. I adore plot lines when single parents find their match.
And I love feel-good stories. Stories that leave me with a glow for days afterwards.
A Cranberry Inn Christmas was the perfect example.
Short, sweet and utterly lovable.
The novella caught me up with favorite characters. New developments and some changes. I was very sad to see the Cranberry Inn go. I still don't understand why the author saw it necessary to sell the Inn but I'm hopeful that she'll add the new owner to the Cranberry Inn gang sooner than later.
Also A Cranberry Inn Christmas allowed me to escape the craziness of Thanksgiving for a couple of hours. I couldn't have picked a better story. It helped me get into the upcoming season and it made me wish I could stay at Cranberry Inn over the holidays. It's such a special place.
A Cranberry Inn Christmas is a must read for all Cranberry Inn fans.

This was a wonderful sneak peek back into all the couples lives as they celebrate Christmas together as a final send off at the Cranberry Inn.
Brody is in top form as the king of swoon and Viper shows his softer side to everyone too.
A fabulous conclusion to this heart felt series.

Ahhh, my original hockey boys! I may hot have read the rest of the series yet outside of Brody and Kacie's story but reading this Christmas novella makes me wanna go back to the holidays and just read everything.
This was a fun, and yet emotional, read. It was fun to revisit these old characters and how they (and their families!) have grown. These kind of books always give off happy vibes. Brody was still his swoony self trying to make everything work for Kacie's wish of a perfect Christmas--with the eternal help of Viper as well. Brody being surrounded by all his girls was really something to read--he was too adorable for my ovaries to remain intact! Hahaha!
This was also an emotional read because we had to say bye-bye to the Cranberry Inn. (Are we, really?) This was where it all started and it was sad that it had to go to somebody else. I have to be honest, I really wished that one of the guys was the buyer, especially Brody. But it would've been too perfect or too predictable, yeah?
I got the proper giggles and the touch of tears where they mattered. This was indeed a wonderful holidays read from BE.

This series is just addictive. And any time Beth gives us another little shot, it induces instant happiness. These characters have embedded themselves into my heart and I cannot get enough.
This story brings us back to the Murphy family at Christmas. Kacie is determined to have the perfect Christmas before the twins get any older and Brody wants to help make it happen. But some surprising news puts a damper on the Christmas spirit.
But Brody has spent their relationship trying to make Kacie's life better, and with the help of some good friends, he is determined to surprise her with some Christmas magic. But it would not be a Cranberry Inn book without a bit of drama, a little suspense, and a bunch of laughter, love, chaos, and swoony romance.
I was totally swept up into this novella and I loved getting the multiple points of view. All of our friends are back and part of this story. There are such wonderful heroes throughout this series. Brody...the hottest and sweetest guy who makes your heart melt. Viper...the mischievous bad boy who is also oh so good and is always entertaining. And Andy...the one who tries to stay in control and to keep them in check. And then there are the sassy women who have won their hearts and made families with them. I was so happy to spend more time with them and see a little more into their futures. And some other lovable side characters are present as well. I adore this group so much and enjoy their banter and dynamic interactions.
It was a novella, but packed quite a bit in and felt like a perfect holiday epilogue for this series. It had me captivated, laughing, crying, and totally swooning. I had a huge smile on my face when I was done.
Thanks Beth for giving me the rest of the story I didn't even realize these characters needed. But now it really does feel more complete...unless perhaps we see some more books with their offspring later on. This was just what I needed to put me more in the Christmas spirit, and to say goodbye to these beloved characters...at least for now. This made my heart so happy!

Beth Ehemann, the Cranberry Inn series, and Christmas ... these are a few of my FAVORITE things. What a beautifully packaged gift to all of us to have them unite in this holiday novella that also serves as the perfect farewell to these beloved characters.
This series has been joyfully romantic the whole way through. (Well, mostly... Viper's storyline was a bit more Scrooged at times.) But in A Cranberry Inn Christmas, Beth Ehemann takes all the joy and romance and family and humor we've come to know and love and she sprinkles it with Christmas cheer to make for a holiday surprise that is exactly what we all need. Grab some hot cocoa, curl up by the tree, and get lost once again at the Inn, the place where it all began, where a stranded hockey player stumbled upon a single mom and her twinkies and an unforgettable love story ensued.
This novella is chock full of nostalgia, reminding us of all the reasons we fell in love with Kacie and Brody, with their family and friends, with the Cranberry Inn and the Minnesota Wild in the first place. But more, it's a beautiful ode to holiday traditions, to gratitude and love, to everything that defines "the perfect Christmas."
This bittersweet finale is the most fitting farewell to these characters. I love this group so much and I hate to see them go, but there's truly no better way to say goodbye than seeing them together at Christmas time, singing carols, baking cookies, trimming the tree, and laughing through all the unexpected antics that are so very unique to this series. A Cranberry Inn Christmas is funny, it's romantic, it's filled to the brim with comfort and joy. It's the perfect way to ring in the holiday season and to find peace and contentment with where this author has taken our friends at the Cranberry Inn.

"Christmas Special"-type of things are made to be cute and superfluous. This was cute and superfluous.

A great addition to this series that got me all geared up for the holidays. My sweet, swoonworthy Brody is just as I remembered him. I think I fell a little more in love with him when I saw how much he doted on Kacie and all his little girls. Of course Viper did not disappoint with his crazy humor. Throw in some hockey and snow storms and this was just the perfect holiday read!

Aw! That was so sweet!
This was a super sweet and fun Christmas novella about the characters from The Cranberry Inn series- including Viper and Andy. (If you haven't read Viper and Andy's books and you plan to, you should read those books first.)
I loved getting to see a glimpse of where all the characters are and how they are doing. Brody is pretty much perfect, Viper is a trip and Andy is...just good old Andy. The girls (and the kids!) were fun, too!
I was saving this novella for this time of year to help me get in the spirit of the season. After starting (and DNFing) 3 different books this weekend, I told myself it was time to revisit this gang! It worked like a charm. This was a great holiday read!

This was a heartwarming and memorable journey with my favorite family and their friends. In the time since I first met Kacie, Brody and the gang almost 3 years ago, I’ve enjoyed countless laughs, tears and sighs of contentment. This story provided one final hoorah with the gang packed with all the usual suspects, a festive story, and a beautiful reminder that family is so much more than blood.
I was thrilled when Beth announced she would be writing this story. Though we had cameos from Kacie and Brody throughout Viper’s and Andy’s books, I was super excited to catchup with the two lovebirds who first captured my heart. I was content to have those insights into their lives but this book gave me closure that I never really knew I needed but desperately wanted. I hung on every word so I could soak it all up.
Beth did a fantastic job of including all the characters I’ve come to love and it was bittersweet to read those final words knowing that my time with the gang has come to an end. Even now, as I write this review, my emotions are all over the place. (These are happy tears - I swear!!) I will cherish the gang forever and look forward to revisiting them in the future.

Fans of Cranberry Inn will love this return to our favorite characters. Kacie has plans to make this this a perfect Christmas filled with magic and memories while the girls are still young enough to enjoy it. Brodie’s goal is to make sure Kacie gets what she wants. With a Wild twist, he plans a surprise that will ensure Kacie’s dreams come true this Christmas. But elements outside his control mean his perfect surprise may not happen after all.
As the story progresses and challenges arise to foil both Kacie and Brody’s plans for the perfect Christmas, the closeness of these Wild brothers and their wives is reinforced by the lengths they go to in order to fix things. I loved watching Brodie, Viper, and Andy jump through hoop after hoop in order to give their families a perfect Christmas -- and things are stacked against them! As each of their personalities drive their actions and reactions, hilarity fills the pages even as they scramble to get home for Christmas.
There is so much news shared within these pages that leave all the couples and families in great places for the future. While there was a lot of activity, the drama level was low -- everything that happened to make things difficult for these beloved characters was outside of their immediate control. They did not create the drama, only reacted to events around them. I loved each piece of information that comes out during the course of this book. While it was bittersweet to turn to that last page, I love the closure this novella gives the series.

REVIEWED BY JENN
*This is not a standalone. This is the final novella in a six book series of interconnected stories.*
What a way to go out! A Cranberry Christmas is exactly what a conclusion novella should be. For those of us who fell in love with Brody, Kacie, the twinkies, and the whole gang years ago, this was the perfect way to say goodbye, without all the tears and lingering hugs.
Brody will stop at nothing to give Kacie the perfect Christmas, and what that storyline did was give us classic Brody Murphy. Let me tell you. Every man out there has a lot of live up to when their women finish reading this book. He is perfection personified. Every time I turned the page, I was swooning at something else Brody did. It reminded of when Brody was trying to win over Kacie in Room for You, which will forever be one of my all-time favorite books.
Lucky for us, we don't just get Brody and Kacie, but Viper and Michelle, and Andy and Dani. It was great to spend more time with our favorite couples, and catch up with them.
A Cranberry Christmas is Ehemann at her best. It is a true love letter to her fans. This is a book and series that I will continue to revisit, because it really doesn't get much better than this.
*This is not a standalone. This is the final novella in a six book series of interconnected stories.*
What a way to go out! A Cranberry Christmas is exactly what a conclusion novella should be. For those of us who fell in love with Brody, Kacie, the twinkies, and the whole gang years ago, this was the perfect way to say goodbye, without all the tears and lingering hugs.
Brody will stop at nothing to give Kacie the perfect Christmas, and what that storyline did was give us classic Brody Murphy. Let me tell you.

The Cranberry Inn was one of those series that grabs your heart and just won't let go. It was such fun to read. Not a ton of angst but enough to give the story staying power, along with characters you really feel comfortable around, and some adorable extras, too.
And this holiday novella from Beth Ehemann made me extra thankful on Thanksgiving. It's hunky hot hockey players, too. And good people looking for second chances and whole big serving of family ties that bind. Cuteness in every nook and cranny and a whole lot of witty banter and charming settings.
What's not to like when you get to go back to Cranberry Inn during the holidays for a catchup with characters who you've grown to love. There's a surprise that made me frown a bit -- but change is always in the air.
If you are looking for some cheerful brightness thrown into your holidays, give this series a shot -- or just the holiday novella. Betcha you'll be happy you did!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ONE AND ALL!

I usually never 5 star short books like this but these characters and the short story played out beautifully.
The gang is back. Thanksgiving just ended and now Kacie dreams of the perfect Xmas. But from the start obstacles arise to risk it. Her mom is selling the Inn. This will be the last Xmas at the Inn and that is just the start. Brody though is ready to do what he must to give her her perfect Xmas> When Viper comes up with a way for him to did he starts in on operation Perfect Xmas> Everything is going well, he and the boys will have play games for the Wild before Xmas but will be off for Xmas eve, Xmas and day after.
Alas snow will put all in jeopardy!
Will the boys make it home? will she get her perfect Xmas? What surprises lay in store for this clan
