I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley. Love this heartwarming cute story about second chance love. Ian lost his wife in accident and has no interest in dating. Katie is Ian’s son teacher and she’s attracted to Ian since the first day he dropped Kyle off at school. Kyle’s Christmas wish is for his father to be happy and he feels that he would be happy with his teacher. When Kyle invites Katie to join them for dinner Ian sees her in a different light. After two years decided he wants to date again and he’s interested in Katie. Let just say that Kyle is happy with the outcome. Recommended read.

This was a very cute Christmas story. There's not a lot of character development, and I could easily see it being a full length novel, but I liked that it was short. Ian is a single dad still hurting from the loss of his wife, and his little boy, Kyle, wants his kindergarten teacher to be his new mommy. Katie is the teacher who was raised as a foster kid and has no family. The relationship is quick, the love is instant, but it's a cute story that really gives you the feeling of Christmas. If you're looking for a quick happy read...this is it! **Provided by the publisher for an honest review.

Just what I like to read, especially around the holidays, a novella that gets it right. Joy Brooks' premise isn't new; a child wants a Mother, there is a meet cute between teacher and Father, happy ending for everyone. If that sounds a little simplistic, my apologies, know this - Christmas Wish is a lovely, gentle read with a feel good story and a very happy ending. I would definitely l;like to read more from Joy Brooks.
