Description from the publisher:
After years away from the North Pole, Kris Kringle happily accepts her Uncle Santa’s offer to move back to Christmas Central as head chef. With her young daughter in tow, Kris returns home with two objectives in mind. Goal number one, bring her love of healthy eating and nutritious fare to the North Pole dining service. Goal number two, recover from heartbreak and forget Kyle Masterson, the man who broke her heart. But when Santa hires Kyle as a new co-chef for the holiday season, Kris suddenly realizes that replacing the elves’ beloved sugar cookies with carrots is going to be a piece of cake compared to working alongside her ex-fiancé.

THE RETURN OF KRIS KRINGLE is the third book in the Christmas Central series.

What a great short story to put you in the holiday happy mood, no matter what time of year it is.  Which is why I listen to or read holiday stories throughout the year – IMHO, we all need to keep that happy frame of mind twelve months of the year.

I am such a hopeless romantic that I was rooting for Kyle to win Kris back before I even heard the first word of this story, just from the blurb. 

Poor girl is fighting two losing battles:  refusing her heart’s desire (Kyle) and the elves’ sweet-tooth.   She might as well face it – rabbits eat carrots, cats chase mice, and elves want sugar.  Even her daughter, though loyal, can see what is plain as day.

I highly recommend this story and this series.  In fact, I think I’ll go listen to it again now.  See you later!

Narration:  The narrator is perfect.  I loved listening to her voice.

Note:  while I was given this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
