Great for any time of year

I started listening to this book this morning when I got to work and was done by lunch time! It’s a great story, I loved the characters and the settings. It’s not just a Christmas story, although it does take place at Christmas time. There is humor, family, friendship, a dog (always a plus!) and, of course, love.

As far as the narration is concerned, I am super picky when it comes to audiobooks. Amanda Stribling is fantastic!

I can’t wait to read or listen to more by Angie Ellington!

Sweet & charming!

What did you love best about Christmas in Fair Bend?

it's wholesome story...It reminded me a bit of a Hallmark movie.

What did you like best about this story?

second chance love for a young couple was sweet but I loved the family dynamic as well & the small town setting.

Which scene was your favorite?

there were a few but the end is a favorite and even though it's a novella the author added an epilogue which was great to get a little more!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

there were a few sweet moments that were equally enjoyable. I liked the recognition of the spirit of Christmas being important in the story's theme.

Any additional comments?

I love all of the author's novellas and ready for the next to be added to audiobook!

A sweet story

I recieved this book for free in exchange for a honest review. Mrs. Ellington has done a great job with this story. The book is lovely and warms the heart. Lacy and Mason are so good together and they have a genuine connection. Ms. Stribling has done a wonderful job as the narrator. She has a lovely voice and her pitch and tone are well matched for the story. I have no issues recommending this book and author to others. Happy reading.

Cute and uplifting

I enjoyed the holiday book. It was cute, with a bit of small townisms. Loved the way the story flowed. It was refreshing and clean.

Hometown Romance at Christmas

What can be better than kissing in snow? Snuggling by open fire....spending the holidays with your family....oh the feels! Loved this story & Mason is my latest book boyfriend. He just seems to be the whole package! Also, we all know an Alexia! You'll see haha....
Narration by Amanda Stribling was great. Smooth, easy flowing & the right amount of Southern for this sweet romance!

a sweet second chance story

Christmas in Fair Bend is a light sweet holiday second chance story. Lacey is back in her home town for business but when she reunites with her once boyfriend Mason, she has to make some serious decisions about her future and what she wants.
Narrator Amanda Stribling does a wonderful job.

Cute Story

This was a cute story. Every so often I'll throw in either a romance or a cozy mystery into my batch. (something predictable). I tend to find I typically end up with questions/comments about the story, ie, it not making sense in some way. That wasn't the case here, thankfully. Had I simply read this book, I would have given it 5 stars. Because I listened to the audiobook version, unfortunately, it's only getting 4 stars. Why? When reading dialogue, it doesn't always pop out has being/sounding robotic when you read it in your head, whereas, hearing it out loud... well it's another thing. That was the problem here-robotic dialogue.

Another issue involved the narrator. I don't know how she was "doing her thing" but most of the sentences had her voice getting quieter/lowering, sometimes cutting off part of the final word of the sentence. It's like she had her finger hovering over the stop or pause bottom on her recording device, but was hitting it too soon. It was annoying. In the beginning, I was so tempted to just stop listening, but the story was cute, so I continued. Her actual narrating skills were pretty good though. She had a variety of character voices to add to the story.

Delightfully Enchanting.

Angie Ellington is a summer breeze on a cloudy day.  Christmas in Fair Bend hides a dose of reality in a heartwarming story.  For Lacey it's all business.  Maybe later, has become her favorite mantra. Is living for her job more important than finding pleasure in life? Ms. Ellington and Amanda Stribling are a match made in heaven.  They sync perfectly.  With a spoonful of sugar and a whole lot of heart Christmas in Fair Bend will delightfully enchant readers and listeners.

Remember all your dreams.

Lacy had big dreams and they led to Boston away from Fair Bend North Carolina and her first love Mason Peters. When she came back for several weeks she realized she still loved the small town and Mason. Her big career goals morphed into the remembered dreams of owning her own design studio. Is she really ready and able to give up her single minded career focus for a meaningful relationship with Mason or has it been too many years? This was clean but there were mentions made of premarital relationships. Nice read/listen of a second chance romance without too much angst.
