Beautiful Lights and a Beautiful Story
I loved the scenery of this book. The Northern Lights are truly magical and Norway in winter is something else! The two characters Hannah and Kristine are both so lovely and their shared Christmas experience is wonderfully written. All of it is so warm and gentle and also hot! I loved to listen to the audiobook. It was a pleasure and not only because of the British accent. I can‘t wait to hear „Southern Roots“!

Feeling all Christmassy in May!
I had a great listen. Loved the setting and the main characters. Loved the flirtation and the funny bits.
Was not keen on the narrators British accent. It’s probably as I am a Londoner. That is more a personal thing.
Can’t wait to listen the the next book!

Nicely written story except romantic scenes seem clinical
I enjoyed the story in terms of scenery and characters interacting on the trip. All works except the romance lacks conviction and the sex scenes seem clinical and unromantic. This reader doesn't want to feel like a voyeur. Too much minute detail and too little chemistry leave the romance without any pizazz.

Cute Story!
This was such a cute read/listen! And it sounds like this was a teaser for a bigger series to come. Yay! I liked the story and the writing.
At first I just couldn't get into the narration. As she narrates I just couldn't get into her tone. It was too sleepy for me, but then when she did the voices for the characters she was quite good. So not terrible narration, but just wasn't my favorite narrator.
This is also my first book by this author. I will defintely be looking for other books by her.

Hannah takes a break from running her busy London restaurant. She travels to see the Aurora Borealis. Kristine manages a small town bank in Louisanna but loves to travel. When they meet they’re immediately attracted to each other. However, Hannah is broken from a failed relationship. Can the Northern Lights lead to a healing romance? Recommend.

What a wonderful being to Hanna and Kristine’s love story. Christmas under the norther lights sounds beautiful. These women have a strong connection and are destined to be together. I’m glad their story continues in Southern Roots. Great narration too.
