A Gift Like No Other (An O'Connor Christmas)

by Julie Lessman

[Molly J(Cover To Cover Cafe)]

Have you ever read books that you fall in love with just from the blurb? And then, when you open the book and read it, it didn’t let you down? Yea, I get that with every single Julie Lessman book I read. No matter if it’s a full length, or a novella, I get all the feels and am never disappointed. Lessman truly delivered us a gift like no other with this read!

I fell in love with Faith and Conner in Lessman’s Daughters Of Boston series, so when I learned this novella was part of their story, I couldn’t wait to dive in! I missed the sweet passion, and the way they held strong to their faith and love. I will tell you this right now, if you didn’t love them before, you will absolutely love them now!

Watching as Faith had to weigh her heart and her dreams was beautiful. Lessman made me feel as though I was Faith while reading this, her emotions and passions becoming my own. Seeing Collin conflicting those emotions was stunning. His troubles with what he wanted for his family weren’t accrued lightly. They were legitimate and powerful, but Christmas time is a time for healing and love to shine through and reading their story, really gives me hope for my own life!

This is beyond 5 star worthy novella. The messages that are woven within aren’t overbearing but are just right to renew the reads hope. The passion that Lessman incorporates is the perfect spark-inducing amount, and makes the reader feel good that they’ve taken a chance on this read. If you’ve never read a Julie Lessman novel, then run, don’t walk, to grab this one up. You will not be sorry! Then, when you’ve finished this one, grab up all the others!
