The Christmas List: A Small town, single dad, holiday romance (Strawberry Hollow Book 3) Kindle Edition

by Maren Moore (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.1 out of 5 stars 2,650 ratings
From bestselling author of The Mistletoe Bet, Maren Moore comes a brand new second chance, single dad, holiday novella full of Christmas sugar and spice.



I love Christmas.
So much so that in my smalltown I’m known as The Queen of Christmas.
And no one knows holiday festivities quite like Strawberry Hollow.


Only this Christmas season delivers an unexpected twist in the form of Wyatt Owens.
The handsome single father of my new student…
Who just so happens to also be my first love.

The one who broke my heart all those years ago.

I haven’t seen Wyatt since he left our hometown behind, but a piece of my heart has always been his.
And all those old feelings come rushing back the moment we see each other again.
Only now the boy I once loved is a charming, delicious and intoxicating man.

One I’m not sure I can resist.

Especially when neither of us can deny his daughter Lucy’s holiday wish- for the three of us to compete together as a team in Strawberry Hollow’s Annual Christmas List tradition.

At first, he’s determined to win every festive challenge on the list but the more things we check off, the more it seems like he wants to win me instead.
Soon things are heating up between us, and suddenly I find myself at risk of falling… for my ex.

But I’m not sure I could survive the heartbreak of losing him again.
Is this just a holiday fling…
Or is this the second chance I’ve always secretly hoped for?

✨ 𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 ✨ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗮𝘀 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗯𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗗 𝗜𝗙 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘: ❤️ holiday novella 🎄 small town romance ❤️ single dad MMC 🎄 kindergarten teacher FMC ❤️ second chance 🎄 holiday competition ❤️ open door romance 🎄 dual POV 𝗕𝗟𝗨𝗥𝗕: Josie loves her job so much as a kindergarten teacher. She has formed a bond real quick with her new student, Lucy. When Josie meets Lucy’s father, Josie is shocked to her core when it’s Wyatt Owens; the love of her life growing up. Josie & Wyatt parted ways when Wyatt left to achieve his dreams & now he is back in Strawberry Hollow. Wyatt cannot believe that his Josie is his daughter’s teacher. Lucy knows Josie is the queen of Christmas so when Lucy hears about the Christmas List competition that Strawberry Hollow is facilitating, Lucy begs Josie to be on her & her dad’s team. As they complete all of the tasks for the competition, Josie & Wyatt slowly realize that maybe their feelings for each other never went away after all. 𝗠𝗬 𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗚𝗛𝗧𝗦: I LOVED this holiday novella so much! Wyatt is so swoony in his tight Wranglers, old work boots, & Carhartt jacket. Josie cannot even deny how attractive he is as a MAN. There’s just something about a single dad who will do anything for his little girl that makes me absolutely weak in the knees. Josie is their missing puzzle piece & when they are all together, you can’t help but feel the coziness of knowing they are all home. I also love reading about teacher main characters because I can connect with them since I’m a teacher as well. When Josie says “One thing I learned very early on… being a teacher is never a nine to five job” I out loud said “PREACH, GIRL!” This was the perfect little spicy, second chance, single dad holiday novella!

    I absolutely adore this book. The Christmas List is such a cute Christmas novella with some steamy scenes.

    Josie is a kindergarten teacher and she just loves Christmas so she truly enjoys sharing all with her students. She especially enjoys Lucy who is new to her class and new to Strawberry Hollow. Lucy reminds her of herself with her love for Christmas.

    When Lucy tells Josie that she is waiting for her daddy because he wants to meet her new teacher, Josie says okay. What Josie wasn't expecting was her old high school boyfriend who broke her heart eight years ago to walk into her classroom.

    Wyatt left Strawberry Hollow and Josie eight years ago to go to college and play football. Unfortunately he got hurt and couldn't play ball any longer and when he found out he was going to be a dad, he did everything to raise his daughter. Now back in town to help his family, he sees Josie and all feelings come back.

    An unexpected working together for a Christmas List brings these two together along with Lucy. Will old feelings resurface for both?? Need to read this to find out. Just thoroughly enjoyed this book!

    It was a quick read that didn’t leave you hanging either. I fell in love with all of the characters and I had a good time with the banter with the siblings.

    I’m sorry but if my boyfriend dumped me with no goodbye I would be pissed years later regardless of a little girl. This story would’ve been much better if it had some righteous anger, but it felt insta love forgiveness. Short cute read but missed potential.

    We're back in Strawberry Hollow! I absolutely love this small town that Maren has created and so happy we are back again for another holiday treat! This time we follow Josie Pearce and Wyatt Owens as they reconnect after 8 years apart. Wyatt broke Josie's heart before going to college and has returned to his hometown with an absolutely adorable little girl at his side.

    This novella is so sweet and full of holiday cheer, especially as the trio team up for the town's annual Christmas competition! Josie and Wyatt's connection is undeniable and leads to some tension and good spice! This is a Hallmark Christmas After Dark story for sure! 🔥 I'm a sucker for a single dad trope and absolutely love that Lucy has Wyatt wrapped around her finger (and Josie soon too!). 😍

    This was a lighthearted Christmas novella. It was the kind of book that makes you believe in the magic of the holiday romance. That you can move back to your hometown and find your high school sweetheart waiting for you with very little drama and a heavy dose of forgiveness.

    Josie never expected her only live to move back to Strawberry Hollow after he left eight years ago. But it turns out he’s her new student, Lucy’s father and the town Christmas competition pushes them back together. As they spend more time together they find their attraction never faded and Wyatt finds himself working to convince Josie that this time he’s here to stay.

    I really liked this second chance, Christmas romance between the single dad and his daughter’s teacher.

    Aaahh this was so good. I finished it in a day.

    Josie is a teacher (I love when the FMC is a teacher). She is shocked when she finds out her newest student is the daughter of the love of her life, Wyatt, who she hasn’t seen in 8 years. He moved away and broke her heart. Josie, crowing on herself the queen of Christmas, gets roped by Lucy, her student, to compete in their towns Christmas List, forcing her to spend time w Wyatt.

    This was so freaking good! I am so obsessed with this book. Wyatt was so romantic, and a gentleman, but spicy at the same time. So good! And then Josie was fun, and sweet and still so in love with Wyatt.

    This really was a beautiful book. I loved it!

    The Christmas List is a sweet addition to the Strawberry Hollow Christmas novellas. Wyatt and Josie were each other’s first loves, but when he left for college, he broke both their hearts but calling it off. Years later, he’s returned him, a single dad to a little girl who just so happens to be placed in Josie’s kindergarten classroom. It’s not long before the former couple reconnects and sparks fly once again.

    Maren wasn’t kidding when she said this was a Hallmark after dark. The whole concept of the Christmas List town competition was adorable. And then when Josie finally has her f-it moment, Maren brought the spice to go along with the sweet. This was a super quick novella but had a good balance of plot and spice, so add it to your holiday TBR today!

    I loved every bit of this. It was just too good! This series is not only my favourite Christmas series ever. But one of my favourite romance series ever. The characters are just so good. If there’s one thing maren moore does well, it’s write a book boyfriend. And Wyatt Owens did not disappoint.

    A second chance romance, grumpy x sunshine, single dad Christmas novella, it really did have it all.

    I’ve absolutely loved this series so I was eager to visit this town for a finale time. As a major fan of Hallmark movies, Strawberry Hills holds all those vibes but make it spicy.

    Josie’s time to shine is around Christmas as the proclaimed ‘Queen of Christmas’ around her small town. While gearing up for the annual Christmas Competition, she is shocked to find out that her former lover Wyatt as moved back to town with his daughter Lucy.

    Lucy and Josie share the same excitement for the holidays and when Josie is asked to join her team and knowing that she would have to work with Wyatt, she puts her feelings aside for the happiness of this little girl. She tries to keep her feelings separate but the more time she spends with them, the harder it is.

    Wyatt sees this as an opportunity to win back Josie and her affections. He stops at nothing to show her how much she still means to him. I love watching them reconnect and the addition of Lucy was perfection. I loved them so so much!
