About this listen
A heartfelt holiday wish, an unexpected community challenge, and one last Christmas to remember.
From the author of heartwarming small-town romances comes a story about the magic of Christmas, the bonds of family and friendship, and the value of cherished memories that last lifetimes.
Grace never imagined she’d be spending the holidays turning her home into a festive inn, but when she learns her beloved Granny may not live to see another Christmas, she decides to create a holiday experience Granny—and the whole town—will never forget.
Her plan? To offer an authentic, old-fashioned Christmas to guests seeking the kind of holiday magic that only a small town like Winterwood can provide. The only catch? Grace will need the entire town’s help to make her vision come to life.
Make that two catches, she only has twenty days to achieve her goal.
With each day, as Winterwood’s quirky, lovable residents rally around her, Grace forms unexpected friendships and uncovers the hidden stories of those who arrive at her inn in search of a joyful holiday. And as romance begins to spark in the unlikeliest of places, Grace realizes that maybe—just maybe—the true gift of Christmas is the one she never saw coming.
Countdown to Christmas is a feel-good holiday romance overflowing with festive traditions, charming small-town spirit, and the kind of happily-ever-after that will leave you believing in Christmas miracles.
Curl up with this cozy Christmas tale today and let the heartwarming magic of Winterwood take you home.

Story
It’s the flight before Christmas and Molly just got an unexpected gift: a free first-class upgrade on her plane trip home for the holidays. Bring on the complimentary cocktails! But after one too many, she spills all her secrets to the hot guy seated next to her—only to wake up mortified when her buzz has worn off. At least she never has to see Liam again ... or so she thinks. When Molly arrives at Christmas House, the festive rental home that she and her family are sharing with her sister’s fiancé and his wealthy family, she discovers that Liam is one of the new in-laws. Oops.

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Snowed in together in a quaint cabin during a winter wonderland, Nate introduces me to the warmth of spontaneity, festive cheer, and maybe even a ...

I liked the characters and story. A nice, sentimental holiday tale.😊
I really dislike AI narration. Words are sometimes mispronounced so badly that I can’t even figure out what they were going for. Also, emphasis is put on the wrong words in sentences.
