🎄📚 ARC Review: A Christmas Inn, Maine by Aaron Kyte 📚🎄

When Adam Wheatley returns to his Maine hometown after a breakup and career setbacks, he discovers his aunt’s beloved inn is in danger of closing. Determined to save it with a Christmas Eve reopening, Adam takes on a renovation project that quickly becomes more complicated than expected… especially when a charming, kindhearted contractor named Graham enters the picture. ❤️

I REALLY enjoyed this one! Adam is a little high-strung, but he’s such a fun character, and I absolutely loved his obsession with lists. 😂 After a truly terrible month, he finds himself on a path toward figuring out what he actually wants from life versus what he thinks he’s supposed to want. He also learns that asking for help isn’t a failure… and sometimes, a change of plans is exactly what you need.

And Graham? PERFECT book boyfriend material.  He’s sweet, caring, hardworking, and just so easy to love.

I also adored the meddling side characters, the cozy small-town Christmas setting, and especially Adam’s relationship with his aunt. Watching everyone come together to save the inn was such a lovely part of the story!

With great banter, a heartwarming romance, and plenty of holiday charm, this was a quick, cozy, feel-good read that left me smiling. If you love small-town Christmas romances with lovable characters and a little found-family magic, add this one to your holiday TBR! 

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

💬 QOTD: What’s your favorite holiday romance setting… a cozy inn, a snowy small town, a Christmas tree farm, or a big-city Christmas?
