Fresh Fiction Review

Christmas in Mustang Creek
Linda Lael Miller

Reviewed by Sandra Wurman
Posted September 14, 2015

Romance Contemporary

Linda Lael Miller set out to write a warm, fuzzy holiday story that takes place in a small town where everyone knows everybody and everything. CHRISTMAS IN MUSTANG CREEK is considered part of her Brides of Bliss County series -- actually this is book number four. The Brides series originally centered on a marriage pact of three best friends. By now, all three friends are settled down with the loves of their lives. CHRISTMAS IN MUSTANG CREEK takes place in the same place and uses the joy of the season and small town living as the ploy for the romance in this delightful book. Charlotte Morgan is faced with personal challenges that can't or shouldn't be ignored. When her Aunt Geneva shows signs of some age-related memory issues there was only one course of action for Charlotte -- go home to Mustang Creek for the woman who altered her life to care for a young orphaned niece. It is not that Charlotte had turned her back on her beloved aunt when she followed her career dreams to the big city. Geneva was Charlotte's biggest champion. But times change and family comes first. Jaxton Locke follows Charlotte to Mustang Creek. She has held his heart for quite some time but their career paths were too divergent for a successful relationship. Jax dreamed of being a country vet, Mustang Creek was the perfect venue, and there was a position open -- absolutely perfect. Except for one small thing: Charlotte's reluctance to follow her heart and give their relationship an honest chance. Perhaps they needed some divine intervention, or maybe just a Christmas miracle. CHRISTMAS IN MUSTANG CREEK is funny, heartwarming, and a fitting entry into a delightful series by Linda Lael Miller. Miller infuses CHRISTMAS IN MUSTANG CREEK with much of her cowboy wisdom and showcases some very unique characters that will reside in your mind for a long time coming. Linda Lael Miller is a huge animal lover and advocate so it is natural that CHRISTMAS IN MUSTANG CREEK has many furry co-stars. Any fan of Miller expects it and once again she delivers with panache. CHRISTMAS IN MUSTANG CREEK is not a continuation of any previous stories -- has an entire new cast of characters -- so you need not worry if you haven't yet read the Brides of Bliss County. But the Brides series is absolutely grand so why not pick up a copy of the books and add all these to your must read list.

SUMMARY

No one does the holidays like Linda Lael Miller, whose Christmas novels have warmed the hearts of millions of readers the world over! Charlotte Morgan grew up in Mustang Creek, Wyoming, and couldn't wait to escape to the big city. But life in New York isn't as fabulous as she'd like to admit—she's lonely, doing a job she doesn't love and dating too many frogs she meets online. There was one potential prince, though—Jaxon Locke, a veterinarian with definite possibilities—but his move to Idaho to fill in at his dad's vet practice ended things just as they were getting interesting. What Charlotte doesn't know is that he misses her, more than he expected… Meanwhile, Charlotte's great-aunt Geneva—the woman who raised her—needs to enter an assisted-living facility. So, just before Christmas, Charlotte moves back home. When Jax catches wind of her move back West, he's determined to get to Wyoming and do whatever it takes to win her back. Christmas in Mustang Creek is a magical time in a magical place, not least because of a mysterious visitor named Mrs. Klozz. She knows that love is the greatest gift of all, and she's ready to help out Santa by giving these two a push in the right direction!
