Summary

Too many people, too much snow, and too little room should be a recipe for disaster.

Christmas takes a very different turn when the guests of honor break up instead of announcing their engagement. Trapped with his family, they learn that love looks different than either imagined. Both in their eighties, Dodie and Wilson Binder celebrate every Christmas as if it were their last. This year, their grandson Micah is planning to ask his girlfriend, Katie, to marry him so they can celebrate with the whole family. But things go very wrong when she says, “no.” Now they are stuck. Too many people, too much snow, and too little room should be a recipe for disaster. But sometimes too much is just enough. Especially when it’s Christmas.

My Review

AN ENDLESS CHRISTMAS was full of the spirit of the holiday, family, a roller-coaster of emotion, love, forgiveness, inspirational moments, and a very sweet romance. With a beautiful story inside and beautiful hardcover binding on the outside, this would make a fabulous gift or book to be read each year around Christmastime. Perfect for inspirational romance readers.

The reasons why Katie was determined that she wasn't the right woman for Micah didn't feel strong enough initially. However, as the story progressed it was easy to see how Katie's life, especially growing up with the parents and family situation that she did, influenced how she saw herself, particularly her value and what the future would hold for her. I loved Micah's friendship and love for her and that of his family. The teasing. The acceptance. The overwhelming and unconditional love. The protecting and caring. The inviting and comforting. The characters of this family were all fabulous, but of course Micah and Katie and then Dodie and Wilson were the most memorable.

The story was paced wonderfully with plenty of Christmas traditions and spirit. Katie's struggles and the romance between her and Micah drove the story on as well as some surprises the family faces. The were so many tender moments. The ending was heartwarming and perfect for this story. This was one that I would definitely read again.
