A Christmas they won't forget . . .

After spending every waking moment hunting the world’s most wanted terrorist, Colt Mitchell and Brenna Wilson decide to take a break and go home for the Christmas holidays. The minute they touch down on Canadian soil, however, they are pulled into an international conspiracy that would leave the son of a Kuwaiti diplomat dead. Colt and Brenna finally locate the target, but a contract killer is hot on their trail. Retreating to the Canadian wilderness to keep everyone safe, they'll need all their skills---and maybe a Christmas miracle---to make it out alive.

My Review 💙

It wasn't the Christmas reprieve that Colt and Brenna had expected, but it was an unforgettable adventure that I couldn't stop reading.  For being a novella it packed a lot of excitement and suspense, in true Griffin Force fashion.

Even if you haven't read any of the books from this series (which if you haven't you definitely should!) this is a great way to introduce you to a few members of the team, and get the overall feel of the series.  The characters are great and the situations the Force finds themselves in are insane!

Though the majority of the story revolves around protecting the sheik's son, and trying to outmaneuver a Russian terrorist, the moments that Colt and Brenna have alone are so sweet and pretty passionate given the situations they find themselves in.  I loved reading about their relationship in The Captain, but in The Captain's Christmas Promise you see without a doubt their love and devotion for each other.  They are truly a couple that is meant to be!

I have been on a big holiday novella binge these past few weeks, but this one has stayed separate in my mind.  It has the perfect balance of suspense and action, and though it is not a traditional Christmas tale, it is still unforgettable and full of blessings, the love of family, and cherishing every precious moment we can with the ones we love, just like a Christmas novella should.  Awesome read and the perfect addition to the Griffin Force series!

My Rating: ★★★★★
