ABOUT THE BOOK
Can Scrooge find love from a friendship gone cold?
Sanford Stone cut ties with his best friend, Natalie, in favor of the love of his life … a woman who ended up walking out on him just before Christmas. Six years later, Sanford can’t bring himself to celebrate Christ’s birth with any joy. Little does he know, his grandmother and her companions have dubbed him the Scrooge and intend to help him overcome his bitterness and find happiness again.
The only thing that has hurt Natalie Dunivan more than Sanford cutting her out of his life has been watching his long-held grudges slowly destroy the man she has always loved. When Ms. Carol devises a plan to reach out to Sanford, Natalie eagerly agrees.
Sanford accepts his grandmother’s challenge to celebrate Christmas for 31 straight days, but he didn’t count on her plan involving Natalie. Can his family and friends help their Scrooge see the error of his ways, or will Natalie’s presence only make things worse?
MY REVIEW
There are so many "Christmas feels" in this book. Nostalgic traditions carry a good weight of this little story and is a must for a Christmas TBR!"Scrooge" is a very bitter and hurting man, but it's not just slapped on him. He has a very understandable and relatable reason. Natalie is a great friend and you also see her growth as an individual throughout the story.
I think what stood out to me most in this was the message that packed a powerful punch. Though I haven't lived through what these characters lived through, I have seen people in the position of Sanford and the excuses they make or the lies they tell themselves (just like Sanford did). Yet Sanford didn't stay there. And the testimony and focus on God was spot-on.
There is romance, yes. I'm not a romance fan, but it was sweet and definitely chaste.
