Sweet Peppermint Kisses brings together so many of my favorite things that I hated to see it end.

Chiara Johnson accepts a temporary position at a private ranch to help pay off the last of her nursing school tuition so that she can return to her family home in Kansas City. She is hired by Vance Thatcher, a computer app developer, to help care for his sister, Gertrude, who is recovering from a riding accident.

The author creatively finds common interests between Vance and Chiara. Although Vance and Gertrude have not actively celebrated Christmas in many years, she also interweaves ways that they find the Christmas spirit with Chiara in the house. The romance between Vance and Chiara blossoms quickly, and while it is not a smooth ride, love triumphs in the end.

I love the characters in this book and the way that they relate to each other. I’ve loved horses for as long as I can remember, so bringing these majestic animals into the story is yet another element that draws me to this story. Of course, anyone who loves Christmas will love the holiday theme.

This is a novella that can easily be read in one sitting. Pick up your copy, find a comfortable corner, and read it from cover to cover.

I love Josie Riviera Christmas romance books. She transports me to different places. The first time to Portugal. This time I stayed in the USA but went across the country to Virginia. I enjoyed being at the horse farm with Chiara and Gertrude. The romance that blossoms between Chiara and Vance along with the obstacles in their way put me in the role of a sister. My heart swelled with the sweet love developing and I felt the frustrations of a sibling when it appeared they were going to part ways without acknowledging their feelings. I wanted to shake them both. The book was a quick, sweet, read. If you need an afternoon escape that brings with it some Christmas cheer give this book the opportunity to take you away.

5.0 out of 5 stars Like reading a Hallmark Christmas movie.
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2023
Chiara was looking forward to going back home to Kansas after passing her RN licensing examination in Virginia. She planned to go back home as soon as her current home health nursing job is finished. She didn’t count on falling for her patient’s big brother, Vance.

Vance is busy running the ranch and making sure his sister is well taken care of. He can’t be bothered with Christmas. Chiara loves everything about Christmas and is determined to change his attitude.

This book has the makings of a Hallmark Christmas movie. I enjoyed reading it and look forward to my next Josie Riviera book. Her sweet, clean books are a delight to read. Josie Riviera never disappoints.

“Sweet Peppermint Kisses” by Josie Riviera Narrated by: Anthea Hallett-Ybarra
This is a really good story that I truly enjoyed. Sweet and clean, romantic with the thread of doubt… will they both get on the same page at the same time?? Or, will they be like ships that pass in the night. The character voices my imagination tried to create did not mesh with the narration voices of the audiobook. That issue happens to me every once in a while, the discrepancy twixt the narrator’s voices and the ones my imagination generates. That said, I did truly enjoy my time in this audiobook. Happy Reading ! !
