I Heart Christmas By Lindsey Kelk

[amazon_link id=”B00C0U7GKK” target=”_blank” ][/amazon_link]’I Heart Christmas’ is the latest book in Lindsey Kelk’s successful ‘I Heart’ series.

Angela Clarke is planning her own perfect Christmas but the path of Christmas never ran smooth. So when her best friend Jenny suddenly decides she wants a baby and her husband Alex starts making his own noises about growing up and settling down, things start to look complicated. And, with friends and family turning up unexpectedly and a sudden promotion at work. Angela finds herself with a little more on her plate than she can cope with.

‘I Heart Christmas’ is the beginning of a new series for me and even though some people recommended that I should read the series first, I thought the author was quite considerate and gave backgrounds and history of the characters from the first kiss to the first psychotic episode, so at no point in the story did I feel lost.

The story is seen from the perspective of fun loving Angela, our heroine of the series as she settles in for a perfect Christmas with her handsome husband Alex. But it seems that life never runs smoothly for our lead character and she finds herself faced with some surprising situations.

I loved this story, I thought it was deliciously fun and in particular thought that Angela was a fabulous lead. I thought she was wonderfully outgoing, blunt and straight to the point and had a life that I sort of envied. Working in a successful magazine, living the high life in New York with mad as a hat best friend Jenny, it’s seems that there is never a quiet moment in the young woman’s life, but occasionally there is some downtime with her husband Alex. But also, on the flip side, I did feel that I could relate to Angela, as like her I have come to an age where people do ask me about children and you do feel a bit of pressure of figuring out when the time is right for such important decisions.

One thing that did catch me off guard, was that Angela’s husband was called Alex Reid and even though Lindsey did offer a wonderfully vivid description of the handsome man, I did regularly find myself imagining Angela married to Jordan’s ex-husband.

With a cast of heartwarming deliciously fun characters, crazy and romantic scenarios, that all make for wonderfully entertaining and captivating reading, ‘I Heart Christmas’ is a witty and sparkling story, that definitely reeks of Christmas cheer.
