GRR Reviews Santa's Secret (Christmas Wishes Book 1) by Serenity Woods

Santa's Secret is about reconnecting with the Christmas spirit.

Rudi came to Santa's Secret Village in the Arctic Circle, looking to sell the place after looking at it one last time. He bought his daughter, but they had already lost their Christmas spirit, as he and the mother are no longer on speaking terms and the poor kid picked up on that. Rudi did not count on meeting Eva and her young son in the next room over. Eva was a virtual recluse after the death of her husband 18 months ago, but they were already not on speaking terms before he wrapped his car around a tree. Eva is just there to make her son's Christmas more festive, but she unexpectedly brought life and hope to Rudi and his daughter. But will magic be still there come Christmas morning?

It's a bit of an insta-love, but well-tempered by the cold. The two kids are adorable, and overall a pretty good read.
