Summerfield's Angel

I like holiday fluff, historical romance, and Kim Fielding, so of course I had to read this book. If you like those things, you'll probably enjoy it as much as I did.

I especially liked the view of 1880s NYC. Many of the book's locations were familiar to me, and it was interesting to see a historical version of these places. I really felt like I was walking around with Alby and sharing his experiences.

The matchmaking angel was a great idea for a multi-author holiday series, although I'll probably only read one more of the books. The angel plays a big role in this story, of course, and she even has a little bit of a personality herself.

I am so, so glad the second book in The Christmas Angel series was pretty great too. I absolutely love the idea of different authors writing their own version of a prompt, but at the same time I was wary because I am not familiar with some of these authors (one in particular I don't really like, but more about that when I get to their book) and the first book, Christmas Angel written by Eli Easton, was great. So I was a bit fearful that the next books won't rise up, perhaps, but I am glad to say that while I did like Easton's story more, I liked this one as well. There are really a few small things that make me rate it less.

While the plot was great, pretty solid, and well thought through, I felt like things were advancing too fast between the two main characters, next they came to a slower speed, and then took off again. I understood later why I thought that was happening and I have to say I would have benefited of Xeno's point of view as well. I liked Alby, but him alone wasn't quite enough for me since I think I actually like Xeno more, he was a ray of sunshine.

I liked Alby's story a lot, everything made sense, the events flowed nicely and it all came together to build up this nice character. All in all, Summerfield's Angel is a great story, I definitely enjoyed it and is, obviously, a great read for the holiday season.

I have to add that the title is pretty clever, too.
