Thank you to NetGalley and Crown Media for the e-arc in exchange for my honest review.
If you've seen the Hallmark movie than you don't need to read this book. It followed the movie exactly and was a nice reminder as I wasn't able to watch it this year.
The time travel and seeing a character learn how to deal with modern technology is always interesting to see.
Overall I really enjoyed this book and I hope to be able to watch the movie next year.

This is a cute feel good story with a happy ending. This is based on a Hallmark movie. I have not watched it but I did really enjoy the story. This kind of reminded me of It's a Wonderful Life except it goes from 1945 to time traveling to 2016 and the main character sees the impact she has had. At the end of the story is a recipe that I would love to make.

I love Hallmark movies, and I loved this audio book. A sweet story, a bit implausible, but not ridiculously sappy. Perfect to read in the weeks leading up to Christmas!

This was a fantastic time travel tale centered around Christmas. I loved the focus on the impact a single person can have on the lives of others!

I adored this sweet sweet story. A perfect Christmas themed tale. Hanna was such a great character and I loved Toby. I am so excited to see the movie!!

This is the last book that I read in 2017, which is interesting. I did not watch the Hallmark holiday movie, though it is waiting for me on my PVR.
This book seemed to be a romance novel from the first couple of chapters, but it really was about something more. It's about all that can be forgotten over time, as the years pass by and how sometimes getting rid of traditions is not the best thing.
Hanna is a lovely woman, trying to be positive after moments of feeling sorry for herself.
Sarah is stubborn, but interesting in her own right.
The family that comes together, both blood related and otherwise, in this book is one of love, compassion and a need for a new way to relate to each other which they do find in this.
This is a Christmas tale, and yes, it is a bit cliche, but isn't that what makes it good? I think so. Good, quick reading, filled with warmth.

Read this in a day. Such a cute book. Looking forward to watching the sappy movie to go along with it!
