My Review:

Before I started to read The Christmas Visit by Marshall Thornton I though this was going to be a quick holiday story with not a lot of content given that it was only 28 pages long. Wow, I couldn’t have been more wrong if I tried. Not only was there full and wonderful character development but there was also a complete and detailed back story telling all that had happened prior to the beginning of the story.

Marshall Thornton has packed so much into this story that it amazed me. There’s heartache, anger, mystery, soul searching and of course love and romance. There weren’t just remote references to these things either. All were complete scenes told in great detail that had me totally engrossed until the very end. I don’t think I’ve ever known an author to get so much into so few pages. And the ending, well, lets just say it left me with a big smile on my face!

Rated # 5 Delightful Divas by Helen!
