Christina Butrum is a master of writing clean, wholesome small town romance novels; proving that you don’t need steamy bedroom scenes...All you need are well-developed characters and a good, strong story line. The Maple Glen series is one of her best.
Set in the charming town of Maple Glen, each book introduces the reader to different Maple Glen residents. They reappear in each succeeding book in the series. I felt like a part of the town and that the residents were my friends. Love is in the air and the town’s matchmaker, Fran Cooper, is right in the middle of things.
This is a great series to binge-read. The books do not contain cliffhangers, so if you don’t want to binge-read them, you can take your time and savor each one as a standalone. My only regret is that this series has ended. I will miss Maple Glen.
Loved this whole series. Sweet and clean that anyone can read, teens, etc. Showing all different kinds of life in a small town setting. The fun loving characters really make the series the best ever. I am a follower for life. Thank you for the wonderful books you write Christina Butrum. I love them!
Not clean, lots of bad words. No bedroom scene, but you are told they wake up with their arms around each other and then put their clothes on, so it is implied. The narrative develops way too fast for the time line allowed.
I really enjoyed reading about the small town of Maple Glen and the match making antics of Aunt Fran. As paired off each one of her nieces and nephews with just the right person for them. Starting with Clayton and Emmalee who had back for business.
Mitchell synlings as love come for them. Good clean stories, with good plots . From a confirmed bachelor, or a young woman wanting a small town, and how love and a job opened for her. Enjoy one or all they are good.
I loved these books! Sweet clean small town romances that gives you hours of reading pleasure. These books are suitable for teens or any age, no steamy bedroom scenes, no bad language, just good clean reading.
have a review as I read these books individually awhile ago. This is an enjoyable entertaining series. It is extremely rare for me to read a book more than once.
Seven full-length small-town romance novels by Christina Butrum.
Welcome to Maple Glen, where the Mitchell siblings are all about to learn that love has a way of finding you when you least expect it. From falling in love with the boy next door, the new cop in town, and the troubled mechanic with a heart of gold, the one thing that doesn't change is the matchmaker behind it all.
This set of books is very enjoyable to read. As the stories unfold you get the feeling you are in the middle of a Hallmark Movie. Each story is complete and lovingly ended. If only there was a real town like this one.
