A Royal Christmas by Melody Carlson

A Royal Christmas by Melody Carlson is a lovely novella for all ages. Look at that amazing cover! Adelaide Smith is grew up with a single mom in America. She has worked herself through law school living month to month. All of that changes when the country of Montovia writes her to say she is the direct descendant of the King. She travels to Montovia before Christmas.

This beautiful fairytale like story completely charmed me. The story told in the point of view of Adelaide allows us to live the excitement of visiting Montovia through her eyes. What a delight to have a heroine who is smart, kind and has inner beauty. The imaginary country of Montovia was a beautiful setting with wonderful mountains, charming Christmas festivals and a picturesque castle. The story includes mystery, romance, and endearing characters.

This is the perfect story to warm your heart this Christmas season. You will want to travel to Montovia after reading. I am a big fan of Melody Carlson’s Christmas novellas and highly recommend A Royal Christmas by Melody Carlson.

I was given a copy by the publisher and not required to write a positive review.
