Review / Release Blitz: A Christmas Mystery (Green Valley #5) by Noelle Adams

A CHRISTMAS MYSTERY
Noelle Adams
Release Date: December 13

When I return to my hometown for Christmas, I have only two goals. Spend time with my family and discover the identity of my mystery pen pal. I'm not interested in holiday festivities or reconnecting with old acquaintances, specifically grumpy, infuriating Theo Humphrey

For the past two years, I've been traveling the country in my tiny house, building a substantial social media following and recovering from the death of my fiancé, who died three weeks before our wedding day. Now I'm feeling more myself, and I want to find out who has been writing me anonymously for more than a year. Our online correspondence has become one of the best things in my life, and I'm determined to follow the clues to unravel this mystery.

My plans keep getting disrupted by Theo. He was the best friend of my former fiancé, but he's never liked me. He always thought I was too frivolous and superficial to be a good match for his friend. Now he's always around, glowering and muttering sarcastic comments and generally making a nuisance of himself.

My priority should be revealing my secret pen pal, but instead all I can think about is Theo.

MY REVIEW

Maya has been traveling around the country in her tiny house since her husband passed, and has even become somewhat of a travel influencer. But the time has come to be home for awhile, visit her family, and just be. And perhaps figure out the mystery of who her pen pal is. They've been writing back and forth and she may have developed some warm feelings for him, even though she doesn't know who he really is. Then Theo is roped into helping her figure out that mystery. Yes, that Theo. The man who's her late husband's best friend. The man who can't stand her. The man she's starting to realize she may have completely misjudged.

I'll be the first to admit I do love me an alpha. So I guess I was naturally expecting Theo to be one, as they're the most common hero type these days, but Theo is not really that. He's shy and a little awkward, but so damn sweet once Maya figures out who he really is, and I was here for every word. Let me just say that a non alpha hero is the perfect kind for a holiday romance. He embodies the sweet, the warmth (once she got past what she thought was his grump), and the love that I am so drawn to in this season. And Maya, wow. She is so relatable, so easy to see all her emotions as she processed her grief and her new feelings for someone other than her husband. I adore her and Theo's holiday romance. There's so much heart here, so much sweet that I am still smiling even though I finished reading awhile ago.
