Back into my comfort zone and the well read regency romance. BUT with this one there is a twist… the story begins with a death… the death of our Lord’s wife. Just in time for him to realize how badly he had treated her. With a broken heart our hero to be settles in to spend Christmas drinking his sorrows away only break a angel statue, a gift he gave to his wife that she had left behind, and from the shattered pieces appears his beloved wife… there to teach him to live and love properly but only for a day… 

Emily has been sent by an angel to heal Nathan’s heart and allow him to love her and himself properly without malice and ill humours. They travel (on Emily’s suggestion) out of London for Christmas Eve on the suggestion of an angel and our story continues from there. There is some minor sexual content but well within the realm of a loving (now) couple… Nathan calls Emily his bride and showers her with not gifts but emotions and compassionate gestures as she teaches him to stop being selfish and look for the joy and support of others. 

There are moments of joy and heartbreak, sweetness and life in the face of death and a parting. I love the growth of Nathan and the rebirth of their marriage and how this journey impacts the people around them in the small village they travel to. Love in the face of separation… joy in the living in the moment. What a wonderful story with a bit of a twist ending! Eugenia Riley does an amazing job with this Paranormal Romance Christmas With An Angel.
