Amy's Christmas Wish

by Seralynn Lewis

She’s a Bed & Breakfast owner with a dream…and a problem. He’s former military with a hearing deficit. Can they move past haunting memories to reclaim a teenaged love?

Amy Dillon’s teenage crush on Zeke Parker never panned out. He went to the military with her older brother, but now Zeke is back. After years of struggling, Amy’s Bed & Breakfast is finally profitable. But now she has a bigger problem. A new boutique hotel may open in the small town of Worthy, Ohio and disrupt her plans to expand her business.

Zeke Parker is medically discharged for his military-related hearing deficit. When he returns to his hometown, he can’t bring himself to visit his childhood friend––and crush––Amy Dillon. When a fire forces him out of his apartment, he bunks with her little brother in the downstairs apartment of the carriage house where they all grew up.

Amy is happy to have Zeke back in her life, but something is amiss, and hearing issues are the least of Zeke’s worries. Will he ever be able to tell Amy the truth about her brother’s death?

some dreams come true

What a great story of real love and forgiveness. There was also an element of suspense thrown in. God always knows exactly what He is doing, even when we don’t think He is even.there. Both Amy and Zeke learned some important lessons along the way. Very well done!!!

I personally felt like this book was a generous 2 stars. I think the “big secret” Zeke had to tell the girl ended up being so minor and unrealistic; I expected something much bigger considering it was mentioned repeatedly through the whole book until the reveal around the 70% mark. Her reaction ended up being extremely dramatic based on how minor the secret was. The suspect for something that happened was pretty obvious, but there was absolutely no closure due to what ended up happening to them. The ending felt very rushed and chaotic. I’m also a Christian but the Christian aspects felt very forced and excessive. Overall, I don’t DNF books unless they are absolute torture, which this one wasn’t, but it took me a month to finish vs the usual 1-2 days in which I read books of this length.

Sweet story

Christmas and a mystery together in this story with a little romance makes this book interesting. I lIkeda this one.

The "big reveal" was....just absolutely nothing. Way too much build up for nothing.
