My Views:
This is a sweet, romantic  and uplifting love story that I really enjoyed reading.

Lucas and Tess may not be your typical main characters, with him just out of prison and her known as the town slut, but once I learned their stories I fell in love with both of them.  

I was able to get lost In this short story, I found their relationship believable  and book as a whole flowed really well.

The Christmas Wish is a perfect holiday read that I will definitely be recommending.

About the Author:
KATY REGNERY, winner of several regional RWA contests, has always loved telling a good story and credits her mother with making funny, heartwarming tales come alive throughout her childhood. A lifelong devotee of all romance writing from Edwardian to present-day, it was just a matter of time before Katy tried her hand at writing a love story of her own.

As it turned out, one love story turned into a series of five Heart of Montana romances, following the love lives of the Yellowstone-based Lindstrom siblings. In addition to small-town contemporary romance, Katy is presently writing a paranormal romance that takes place in northern New England and the forests north of Quebec.

Speaking of forests, Katy lives in the relative-wilds of northern Fairfield County, Connecticut where her writing room looks out at the woods and her husband, two young children and two dogs create just enough cheerful chaos to remind her that the very best love stories of all are the messy and unexpected ones.

My Views:
This was a really sweet, romantic read. I enjoyed the storyline that flowed brilliantly, I fell in love with the characters and I adored the hot sexual tension between Mike and Taryn that is present throughout the book.

I picked up Mike's Way Back and was glued to it until the finish, I could not put it down! If there is something I love it's when a book can make me laugh and this one certainly did. It had me laughing out loud several times at Mike and Taryn's banter.

 If you like a good love story with a bit of raunchiness that will leave you feeling a mixture of warm and fuzzy and hot and bothered than this is a must read for you!

So to sum up, would I recommend it? Hell yeah I would! I give this book 4 very well deserved stars ****

About the Author:


When asked ‘when do you have time to write’, Amy Gregory simply laughs.  The real answer is, “in bits and pieces”.  She and her husband live in Kansas City with their three fantastic kids that keep them running in three very different directions.  Because she sits so much, she always carries a notebook with her at all times.
She has an off the wall, snarky, off the cuff sense of humor that often shocks even those who’ve known her for years.  And she loves that her children have all been blessed that ability to make others laugh as well.  At least she’s grateful most of the time!  Her husband often teases her about how she “makes this stuff up” when he’s reading a piece of her work. … The answer—“it just comes to me when I’m typing”. Scary thought, huh!
