Review: A December Bride

A December Bride A December Bride by Denise Hunter
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was a sweet Novella over Christmas time. The romance developed really fast, but the years of friendship between Layla and Seth made it more realistic.

I loved Layla when I met her in Barefoot Summer and was glad to see that she got her own HEA.

About the book:


Under normal circumstances, Seth Murphy—the best friend of Layla O’Reilly’s ex-fiancĂ©—would be the last person she’d marry. But the news of their upcoming (and phony) nuptials convinces a big client that Layla may be high-society enough to work for his agency—a coup that would put her fledgling home-staging business on the map.



Seth has secretly loved Layla for years, even when she was dating his best friend. Maybe she’ll never forgive him for the way he hurt her back then, but he has to try. And Layla is willing to keep up their engagement farce until she’s landed her client.



For Layla, it’s the chance to save her career. But for Seth, it’s his last chance to win her heart.


About the author:



Denise Hunter is the award-winning author of more than 40 novels, three of which have been adapted into Hallmark movies.


Denise writes heartwarming, small-town romances, peopled with layered characters who have real-life issues. Her readers enjoy the vicarious thrill of falling in love and the promise of a happily-ever-after sigh as they savor the final pages of her books.

In 1996, Denise began her first novel, writing while her children napped. Two years later it was published, and she's been writing ever since. Her books contain a strong romantic element, and her husband says he provides all her romantic material, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too!

Denise and her husband live in Indiana, where they raised three sons, and are currently enjoying an empty nest.
