The Magician's Angel (The Christmas Angel Book 3) Kindle Edition

Vaudeville stage magician Christopher Fiend lives for the spotlight. His chance at big time stardom awaits him in Chicago, the next stop on the circuit after the little town of Twelfth Junction.

Edward Smith wants nothing to do with his family's theater. Until Christopher catches his eye on opening night, then treats him to a very special performance during intermission.

When a dead body turns up in the middle of Christopher’s act, suspicion immediately falls on him. If Christopher and Edward can’t work together to clear his name, Christopher won’t make it to Chicago in time. Edward knows he shouldn’t get attached to a man who will be gone in two days, but his heart—and a very special angel—have other ideas.

The Christmas Angel series of holiday romances follow the travels of an angel ornament through the decades as she inspires (and sometimes nudges) lonely men to find their Happily Ever After. The Magician’s Angel is the third in series, which can be read in any order.

* * * * *

In 1750, a master woodcarver poured all his unrequited love, passion, and longing into his masterpiece—a gorgeous Christmas angel for his beloved’s tree. When the man he loved tossed the angel away without a second thought, a miracle happened. The angel was found by another who brought the woodcarver True Love.

Since then, the angel has been passed down, sold, lost and found, but its magic remains. Read the romances inspired by (and perhaps nudged along by) the Christmas Angel through the years. Whether it’s the 1880’s New York (Kim Fielding), 1910 Iowa (Jordan L. Hawk), post World War II (L.A. Witt), Vietnam-era (N.R. Walker), the 1990’s (Anyta Sunday), 2018 Europe (RJ Scott), the Christmas Angel has a way of landing on the trees of lonely men who need its blessing for a very Merry Christmas and forever HEA.

I'm having a lot of fun following the adventures of this Christmas angel. I like how each story ties into the one before it by referencing where the angel came from. I've been hooked on mysteries this year so I really liked that there was a murder to solve in this book. I did pretty well guessing the who and why but totally missed the mark on how. I liked the relationship between Christopher and Edward, especially the flirting. At first, I was worried that too much of how the tricks are performed would be revealed but that wasn't the case at all. The mystery is safe.

I love Jordan L. Hawk's books. He is an amazing author and The Magician's Angel was a wonderful Christmas in July present to myself :) I can't believe it took me this long to read it but Christopher and Edward are wonderful. Accountant meets magician in this little holiday romance as Christopher and his troupe are in town for a performance at a small family theater owned by Edward and his brother. The history of the theater and why Edward wants nothing to do with it is sad. I love how the Christmas Angel ends up in Christopher's hands after he left Port Angeles. When he finds it in a certain department store's window...let's just say I had flashbacks of Summerfield and a certain cowboy. You'll love this book :)

I wish Hawk had put their installment in the series on KU the way the rest of the series is. I didn’t think it was any better than Eli Easton’s kick-off of the series, and that was on KU. It seems a little pretentious to think that your work is so much better than all these other established authors that people should pay for yours and not for theirs. I will probably return it, as it wasn’t as great as Hawk’s books usually are and I feel resentful told their attitude.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute historical novella
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2018

Jordan L Hawk is an amazingly talented author. This novella, like her other work, is well written with great pacing and an engaging plot and characters. The only reason I don't give it a full set of stars is because I'm always a little put off by plot lines that run sex first/love later. Obviously that's a personal preferences, sex has great non-emotional elements, but I just want love to be a part of it, even at the beginning. In this novella lust at first sight leads to a quick bout of sexual activity and the emotions for each other only come later. But it's all so well written that overall it is absolutely worth reading, just not one of my all-time favorites.

This was a wonderfully sweet and sexy Christmas story. The time period was excellent and I loved the background look at the vaudeville show. Since it is a Jordan Hawk story, I had expected more actual magic but the touches of the angel and Chris's show not to mention the magic between him and Edward more than made up for it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fast-paced murder-mystery romance
Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2018

The Christmas Angel is back, this time in 1910 small-town America. While she doesn’t make as many appearances in this book as in the previous one, she’s still there to witness yet another improbable couple fall in love. I liked the pacing, as well as the alternating points of view of the two main characters, as we could get a feel for what they thought of one another. While I figured out the murder mystery fairly quickly, it was still a good read. Both Edward and Christopher were likeable, and Chris’s fellow performers were well drawn. A nice addition to the series!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous and sweet.
Reviewed in Canada on December 29, 2018

An accountant and a magician, an intermission liaison, and a murder set the stage for a very fine Christmas mystery.

I've been known to complain about insta-love stories, how I often find them unbelievable, but, due to the deftness of the author, these two men finding love over the course of two days is somehow entirely reasonable, and utterly convincing.

The mystery is well plotted and just tricky enough to keep you guessing. Which is less common than one might expect. The steamy bits are well-written and not so numerous as to beggar belief, given the characters are quite busy solving a murder.

This writer, in my experience, has a real way with words and they have packed an awesome amount of details and story into a relatively short tale. Highly recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Misdirection

A beautifully built historical romance that manages to create a world that these two can live in even with the strict times working against them.

Edward is stuck in his hometown, a small nowhere, running a theater that should by all rights die. In fact it is dying, but his brother won't give it up. One last chance to revive it brings in the Christmas Train of performers, along with magician Christopher Fiend. Christopher loves the theater, but he longs for the big show, to finally make it and get off the small circuit. All those dreams will come true in the next stop, but when he is framed for murder in the small town theater everything could come crashing down. Knowing that Christopher is innocent, as Edward is his alibi and yet cannot be, the two work to find the real murderer before Christmas.

Edward seems to be cold and closed off but he has only done this outwardly to protect himself. Between his dangerous orientation and the sadness he feels from the theater's past, Edward simply hasn't felt a hope for the future in a long time. His time with Christopher is surprising and shows him a side of the theater he has forgotten. It also shows him a side of himself and a willingness to give to others that he has pushed down for years. But Christopher is leaving and Edward will still be stuck in his nowhere town.

Christopher is an excellent magician and knows that he can make it to the top. It has been his every dream for so long. Companionship is fleeting and somewhat perilous, but not something that he could ever deserve to have in a lasting capacity. When Edward sticks up for him and opens his home and his heart Christopher sees another path his life could have. But dreams for the future don't die easily and picking between a secret love and the love of the crowd won't be easy.

A beautiful and atmospheric story, this had just the right dose of Christmas but can easily be read anytime.
