loverofromance 's review for:
Christmas at Thorncliff Towers
by Marina Myles
I received a ARC copy in exchange for a honest review, thanks to Netgalley and Kensington Books.
I have come to really like this series so far, and it has been a unqiue take on fairy tales. I have admireed this author, and seeing the way she weaves a story togther, in a way that enchants you. I first fell in love with Marina Myles when her first book came out. Even though I enjoyed this very short book--took me about 20 minutes to read, so it just breezed by, and if you are looiking for a short interlude, that has a quick romance with some twists of magic and other intriguing elements, with a Christmas theme. As far as the theme of the love story, goes, I liked the way it formed and was set up. I enjoyed the minor conflict but I will say I felt something missing from the story. It may be due to the fact that it was so short, I have seen this with novella's at times in the past, it is hard to get a good foundation for a story with only 60 pages. But I enjoyed the twist of "Hansel and Gretal" fairy tale on this one, and it had some fascinating portions of the story that really intrigued me.So overall a charming love story.
