A Mackenzie Family Christmas: The Perfect Gift (Mackenzies & McBrides, #4.5)

by Jennifer Ashley

Angela Dawe (Narrator)

Revisit the Mackenzies in this heartwarming Christmas tale of the New York Times bestselling Mackenzies series.

The Mackenzies gather for a clan Christmas and Hogmanay in Scotland. In the chaos of preparations for the celebration--the first of Hart and Eleanor's married life--one of Ian's Ming bowls gets broken, and the family scrambles to save the day. Daniel busily runs a betting ring for everything from the hour Eleanor's baby will arrive, to whether Mac's former-pugilist valet can win a boxing match. Ian begins a new obsession, and Beth fears that the loss of one of his precious bowls has made him withdraw once more into his private world.

3.5 stars for me. I enjoyed seeing everyone and loved that the book was from so many favorite characters' point of view. The deal over the bowl felt a bit over done, but overall enjoyable. Definitely setting up for future books.

First: this was a lot longer than I expected!
Second: while I enjoyed it (especially the Ian&Beth plotline), it was kind of all over the place. I didn't like how some people had like... one scene from their POV, and then nothing. It felt too open.
And the time jumps... *shrug*
All in all, I enjoyed it, but I like to books better. LOL
