#BookReview: It Started at Christmas... by @jomcnallyauthor






Synopsis: She was hired to design his house.

Instead she created a home.

Interior designer Amanda Lowery can turn Blake Randall's crumbling castle into a Gallant Lake showplace. But helping the real estate mogul with his guarded heart and his troubled, orphaned nephew? A much bigger challenge. With demons in her own past, Amanda yearns to help them both heal. But will she find the family and safety she's craved...or become a Christmas casualty in Blake's latest business plan?

About the Author: Jo McNally lives in coastal North Carolina with 100 pounds of dog and 200 pounds of husband – her slice of the bed is very small. When she's not writing or reading romance novels (or clinging to the edge of the bed...), she can often be found on the back porch sipping wine with friends, listening to great music. If the weather is absolutely perfect, she'll occasionally join her husband on the golf course, where she always feels far more competitive than her actual skill-level would suggest.

Rating: ★★★★
My Review: The writing in this one was great and spot on for the story.  The characters all came together and I loved every page.  I wished this one would have been a little longer as in parts it felt like things were a little rushed.  But overall it was wonderful!! The story had a great pace and I will be checking out Jo's other titles.  


Overall, if you love Jo's writing and or love all those holiday titles then this one will be right up your alley. 



Go Into This One Knowing: Castle and an Orphaned Child 







Jo McNally has a real winner here! She evokes passion, love and a sense of the importance of family in this story.

This was a pretty good contemporary romance. I enjoyed seeing how things played out. I enjoyed getting to know the characters, seeing their past demons, seeing how Blake was raised and how it impacted their lives to show how it made the two characters the way they where.
