Once Upon a December
Book Feature - Once Upon a December by Amy E. Reichert
HBL Note: A “Hallmark Movie on Paper.” That’s how ONCE UPON A DECEMBER by Amy E. Reichert was described to me and I am a sucker for a good winter holiday romance, whether on the screen or on the page. It features a Christmas market, a heroine known for her baked goods, especially the kringle, and (of course) a budding romance. It is also being compared to holiday favorites such as This Time Next Year, One Day in December, and The Holiday Swap.
"Delightful in every possible way! With Reichert's trademark bone-deep wisdom threaded beautifully throughout a riotous, otherworldly, and marvelously unexpected novel, Once Upon a December is an absolutely perfect holiday hug."--Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of In A Holidaze

From the publisher:
With a name like Astra Noel Snow, holiday spirit isn’t just a seasonal specialty—it’s a way of life. But after a stinging divorce, Astra’s yearly trip to the Milwaukee Christmas market takes on a whole new meaning. She’s ready to eat, drink, and be merry, especially with the handsome stranger who saves the best kringle for her at his family bakery.
For Jack Clausen, the Julemarked with its snowy lights and charming shops stays the same, while the world outside the joyful street changes, magically leaping from one December to the next every four weeks. He’s never minded living this charmed existence until Astra shows him the life he’s been missing outside of the festive red brick alley.
After a swoon-worthy series of dates, some Yuletide magic, and the unexpected glow of new love, Astra and Jack must decide whether this relationship can weather all seasons, or if what they’re feeling is as ephemeral as marshmallows in a mug of hot cocoa.
