Peppermint Wishes

By: D.L. Darby

Narrated by: Sadie Provost

No one should be alone for Christmas. At least, that’s what Evelyn Montgomery‘s parents always told her. So when she finds herself very alone for the festive holiday, she decides to book a weekend at Sutton Lake.

It’s there, in a whirlwind of fate, that she meets Jonathan, her gorgeous, albeit grumpy, neighbor across the lake, who also happens to be spending Christmas alone.

After sharing the weekend together, they part ways, but when she leaves, Evelyn realizes maybe parting ways isn’t what she wants at all.

Returning to Sutton Lake to find him, she discovers that not everything about that Christmas weekend was as it seemed. Jonathan is nowhere to be found, and no one from the town remembers her from her visit just one week ago.

Doubting herself, Evelyn wonders if she made it all up.

Was her trip to Sutton Lake just a dream?

And if it was, maybe that means Jonathan was just a figment of her peppermint wishes.

Omg gut twister

Omg this was amazing, Join the story as Evelyn decides to take a break from her misfortunes to have the most steamy, fun weekend over Christmas, to then have that romance and fuzzy feeling ripped from you, to then be thrown a curve ball as her reality bends, and she has to decide which path to follow and will there be a happy ending.

I am so surprised at how many feels I got from this book and litteral LOL.

I highly recommend.

eventho it was a bit heartbreaking she was able to heal and still find ththe courage to go do what she's always wanted to do.

I like that I didn't see that twist coming. The story was sweet, heartbreaking, and healing.

Tear Worthy Perfection!

Evelyn and Jonathan, they met by chance one Christmas, a Christmas when neither should have been alone …. It was magical, until fate intervened and nothing was as it seemed! Beautifully written, packed with emotion, and blissfully, beautifully heated, “Peppermint Wishes” is tear worthy, stunning perfection! This story is truly beautiful, and had THIS listener crying, sobbing big ugly tears in the best possible way! I can’t give details without including huge spoilers, but that twist, oh holy wow, perfection! So perfect, so magical! Now I’ll hush! Moving on… I loved the characters! Every single one, beautifully defined, beautifully human! The lines they spoke resonated as true. The stunningly, lifelike narration conveying emotion beautifully and brilliantly! The “mood” and feel of the story, sometimes haunting, at others joyful, brought out so clearly and cleverly by vocal nuances adding so much depth, and clearly bringing the author’s vision to vibrant life! I loved every single second of this holiday story. Five stunning stars!

4 STARS
Evelyn is going through a divorce. She chooses to go to Sutton Lake for Christmas, while cleaning out her parents house. While she’s there she meets Jonathon, a grumpy neighbor. He is also alone. They end up spending time together.
From there the story takes some strange turns. How will it end? Listen to find out.








The narration was well done, by Sadie Provost. She gave the female protagonist just the right amount of snark.


I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
