Captain Nash Lamont has just moved to Happy, Texas to try to recover from PTSD after serving in the military. Kasey McKay helps run her family’s ranch in Happy. She’s a widow who moved back there with her three children after her husband died on a mission for the military. While she still struggles over the loss of her husband, the sudden jolt of attraction she feels for Nash is very unexpected.

This was a pretty good book. Everything that Nash and Kasey are going through definitely messes with your emotions. For anyone that has already the first book in this series, we’ve already met Kasey and the rest of the family, whom are very active in this book. My biggest problem with this book was actually Kasey’s mother. I’ve never lived in a small town and have never cared about what others think, so her aversion to Kasey’s actions really irritated me. Then again, she did in the first book. Absolutely loved Kasey’s kids. I look forward to reading the next book in the series. I highly recommend.

"Genuinely sweet." – Publishers Weekly

A heartwarming holiday read from USA Today bestselling author Carolyn Brown – Nash Lamont is a man about as solitary as they come. That's exactly why ranch life in middle-of-nowhere Happy, Texas suits him. So what the heck is he doing letting a beautiful widow and her three rambunctious children temporarily move in? Before he knows it, they're stringing Christmas lights and decorating the tree... and he's having the time of his life. But after everything he's been through, Nash knows this kind of happiness doesn't last.

Kasey Dawson thought she'd never get over the death of her husband. Nash, with his strong hands and infinite patience, is stirring something she hasn't felt in a long time. Kasey knows the sexy cowboy isn't telling her everything about this past, though. And she refuses to risk heartbreak all over again. But her kids have a plan of their own: Nothing will keep them from having a real family again-even if it takes a little help from Santa himself.

Scrumptious.  Serious subjects, tender sweet moments and new beginnings are packaged inside this heartbreaker of a read.  Life has not been kind to Nash or Kasey.  Trapped in his own personal hell, Nash keeps to himself, grieving the man he used to be and despising the one he has become. Until a couple sweet faces and a beautiful woman turn this beast into a family man.  Long, Tall Cowboy Christmas resonates, because we all have regrets and painful memories that litter our life. The key is to not let fear dictate our choices and hold us back, but push for something better.

This is book # 7, in the Christmas, Colorado series.  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  Head up - I recommend reading this series in order so the inside jokes and understanding is there.

Jill & Sawyer have known one another a long time.  He is her brother's best friend, and her soul mate.  Only he does not see her that way.

Sawyer is just starting to notice that Jill is a woman.  He never looked at her like that before.  Her brother and his best friend keeps warning them apart.  But does he truly know what he is warning against?

I really loved this book.  It made me laugh, cry, and even have anger.  I felt this story to my bones.  I feel like this was the author and the series BEST. Book. Yet.  I found it very entertaining and give it a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

"Happy Ever After in Christmas" by Debbie Mason

My Thoughts....

This was another beautiful entertaining novels by this author in Christmas, Colorado featuring Jill Flaherty and Sawyer Anderson. What will happen when Jill has feelings for her brother's best friend? I loved how we got to see that all Jill really wanted was a family of her own.

This story really give the reader a good well written read when at times the heroine did have me shaking my head wondering when will she see just what is right in front of her and going after it before it is too late and not letting anyone stop her? I know when the story starts out it we found out that Jill has cared for Sawyer since childhood but now was almost thirty wasn't it time to either ask him out or move on with her life? And what about Sawyer and his best friend Jack[who was somewhat over protective brother]...what were they up to when they started setting Jill up with different guys? Now just what did they expect was to happen? At this point I know the reader is wondering what was wrong with Sawyer that even his best friend Jack didn't want his sister Jill dating him? As this dramatic story continues I liked how this author seemed to bring in many surprises giving the reader quite a few twist and turns before we get to the end. The readers will see many characters from several earlier series and some new ones [Chloe, Easton, Gage, Vivi, Chance, Brandi, Nell & Ty] to name a few that will tie into this story of 'Happy Ever Ever' [which was seventh in this series] however, this can be a standalone read to enjoy!

This will be a story of with lots of drama, humor, misunderstandings, surprises, heartache and even some hot steamy passion. In the end will Deputy Jill Flaherty get the HEA with former Ice player Sawyer Anderson with the help of family and friends on this rough ride? Well, to see how this author brings this all to a end the readers you will have to pick up this good read of a small town romance in Christmas, Colorado. Would I recommend? YES, if you are into romance.
