Review ‘Merry Christmas Baby’ by Katie Reus (Audio)

After unexpectedly inheriting a bookstore, Nora and her younger sister settled
in Holly, NC, a place where it’s Christmas year-round. As the legal guardian
for her sister the past few years, romance has been the last thing on Nora’s
mind. But she broke her rules for the town’s golden boy—former SEAL Jackson
O’Connor.

When Jackson does something stupid and almost loses Nora for good, he realizes
just how far he’s willing to go for the woman who’s stolen his heart. But it
might take a Christmas miracle to get Nora to give him a second chance.

I’ve heard many
great things about Katie Reus and her books. But I never read any of her books
before. So when I was looking for a nice Christmas themed audiobook to listen
to during the HoHoHo Read-A-Thon, and I saw ‘ Merry Christmas Baby’ I decided
this was the perfect opportunity to start listening to my first Katie Reus
book.

In ‘Merry Christmas
Baby’ we meet Nora. Nora is the owner of a small book/coffee shop and she lived
with her younger sister in a small town called Holly. In Holly it’s Christmas
all year-round. And ever since Nora got custody of her younger sister, this is
the only town she felt like staying. Especially since she met sexy and sweet
Jackson O’Connor. Jackson is everything Nora wants in a guy. But after what she
taught was a great first date, Jackson ignored her for weeks. Now Jackson is
determined to make things up to Nora. But Nora isn’t falling for his tricks
again.

‘Merry Christmas
Baby’ is a short, romantic and sexy Christmas story that pulled me in from the
very first start. This was definitely a perfect Christmas read that had all the
feels. A nice small town, a nice book/coffee shop, nice characters and a sweet
and sexy romance. I really loved listening to this book.

The romance between
Nora and Jackson was definitely very predictable but I still loved every minute
of this story. I loved how sweet Jackson was and how much he wanted to fight
for Nora. I enjoyed their interactions and I was totally rooting for them.

I also loved the
little town of Holly. A town where it is Christmas every day? It sounds very
sweet to me. And learning all those Christmas themed shop names.. LOL!!
Hilarious.

The narrator Sophie
Eastlake had a very nice voice to listen to. I liked the way she made Nora and
Jackson come to life. Her voice fitted both the characters perfectly and above
all she made it sound natural. I hate it when a narrator makes the romance
sound unnatural and it makes you kind of uncomfortable to listen to it. Sophie
Eastlake definitely didn’t do that.. I loved listening to this book.

I loved listening
to ‘Merry Christmas Baby’ while driving to work. It was a fun and great way to
pass the time and it really made me look forward to Christmas time. If you’re
looking for a short,  fun, sexy and
Christmas themed audiobook.. ‘Merry Christmas Baby’ is for you.
