Review of Sugarplum Homecoming

Author: Linda Goodnight

Series: Love Inspired/ Whisper Falls
 
Chapters: 15

Pages: 224

Genre: Christian Romance

Rating: 5 stars

            Lana Ross had been the bad girl in school in her small town. Now she’s back to try to make a better life for her and Syndey. Davis Turner just happens to be a widower and her high school crush.  She just wants to forget the past, but many in the town have a long memory including Davis’s sister. It will take a Christmas miracle and the prayers a little girl, as well as the friendship of three kids for the adults of Whisper Falls to see that Lana has changed.
            Like other Love Inspired novels and Linda Goodnight’s novels I enjoyed Sugarplum Homecoming.  It was a sweet Christmas read. That showed the miracle of Christmas and the love of a Savior. That with God all things are indeed possible. When I started reading it I didn’t realize that it was the third book in the Whisper Falls series but it can be read on it’s own. Without reading the first two.  Like all the books in the Love Inspired line it is a clean romance at most they would be PG if you are going with a movie rating but most could be considered G. I would recommend it to most woman 17+.
