See all formats and editions

A Christmas wedding becomes chaos for Harper and Cameron in this heartwarming romance, a sequel to Finding Southern Comfort. Mistletoe and magnolias turn to mayhem when Savannah meets Chicago. Families can’t agree about anything, from the venue to the menu. Harper’s heart sure isn’t in it. Her mother’s wedding gown isn’t the only thing that doesn’t fit. The impending celebration frustrates the Savannah couple as they’re swept into a frantic countdown to Christmas. When Cameron’s sidelined by a broken ankle, his little girl Bella reverts to bad habits. Only in each other’s arms can the bride and groom find comfort while around them the planning threatens to become a second Civil War.

Cameron’s family refuses to travel to the “frozen hinterlands,” and Harper’s glorious wedding day frays further. Frozen pipes and water damage cause a change in plans. But even when the ceremony is moved to Cameron’s Savannah mansion, his family might be a no-show.

Harper’s friend Julep suggests a solution and Cameron’s mama reluctantly agrees to handle the menu. When the dreaded chicken becomes jambalaya, hope is on the horizon. A trip to Bleubelle’s provides the dress of Harper’s dreams, and everything seems to finally be falling into place. But not quite ... and that’s the fun of this continuing southern saga.

I really enjoyed this book, just as much as I did the prequel. I read them in order and thought this was a perfect ending. If you're looking for a good story and a quick read this is the book for you. It is what I would call an excellent beach or vacation book. I would totally recommend to anyone!

Another hit in the Windy City series

Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2016

When we first met Harper and Cameron three years ago, she was taking any job just to pay her rent. That didn't work out so well for her. Until she found an add for a live in nanny... at the same place her last unsuccessful job had been. Cameron was working nonstop to keep his multiple jobs afloat and had little quality time for his daughter.

Three years later, and they are both working hard but making family time a priority. They have a wedding planned for Christmas Eve, that suddenly needs some major changes, and several other issues that add to an already overwhelming month.

Having read all the Windy City/Southern Comfort novels by this author, I believe this is one of the best. It is a fun, sweet, happy read that entertaining, yet solid story and character wise. I really enjoy the relationship which Harper and Cameron have built. They are a team and find ways to work through things when they don't agree. Their love and respect for one another and with Bella is very obvious.

Barbara Lohr has written a very detailed, honest, and realistic novel that is engaging from beginning to end. It leaves no stone unturned throughout and only one question remaining at the end that will most likely be answered in the next novel. The strength in the writing, storytelling, plot, and the characters shine through in this novel. It can be read as a standalone novel, but reading the first book in the series, "Southern Comfort," will allow the reader to understand some aspects referred to in this novel.

I highly recommend this novel and the series. An easy, fun and wonderful read for anytime of the year.

I love the way Harper was loved by Cameron and his daughter Bella. Harper originally applied for a nanny position for Cameron's daughter. They eventually fell in love. She also fell in love with his daughter Bella. She had an interior design business but 2 of her customers were being difficult. They agreed on a certain design then when Harper showed them the sketches they changed everything. But 1 of her customers became her good friend. She took the color scheme the other 2 rejected. Then she found out she was going away for Christmas and gave it all to Harper to use. Cameron and Harper became engaged and were planning their wedding when things went wrong. Cameron's family was being very difficult ,especially his mother. But Harper latter found out she was just shy. She had put up with things from Cameron's father for years before he died. They got married at Christmas. They didn't tell the family but they did tell his daughter Bella that she was pregnant. They asked her if she wanted a sister or brother and Bella was very happy. Bella calls her Mommy .

slow as the South is protrayed to be

This story is about a young woman, the nanny, falling in love with her boss. He is the father of a girl in first grade at a private school. he is a contractor that renovates old homes. The setting is Savannah, Ga., the very south that everyone reads about. She is trying to start a business in decorating. She is running into the problem of the old Southern belles thinking the world revolves around them. The episode that happens in the book really happened to a friend of mine that did all the work for a big wedding. The woman constantly changed her mind on every little thing and my friend did it all. When it came time to settle the bill the husband refused to pay for all the changes since HE didn't contract for them. So, my friend wound up paying for this gals wedding. My friend was just so sure they would pay based on their word. Lesson learned. this happened in Florida right south of Savannah!! They experienced no shame!!

the young woman seems to me to be a bit young from her actions. The hero seems to be a bit older and more mature. They are engaged to be married and even though she sleeps in a different bedroom for appearances, they have sex anywhere there is a vacant spot. They definitely have chemistry and it explodes at every opportunity.

The story just didn't seem to get off the ground to me. I kept waiting for something exciting to happen and it just sort of went from day to day things. One reviewer said it was not the best book in the series so maybe that was it. It is a good enough story and there is definitely romance between the two of them. The little girl is quite the character as well.

I was not paid for this review. I am not a writer nor do I know one. I am not kin to this writer. I am a reader an this is my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. 12/22/17

Warm and Christmasy with great characters

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2016

The Southern Comfort Christmas is thoroughly delightful Christmas centered romance. Warm and humorous book details the month before the wedding as Harper struggles to meet the decorating demands of the ladies of Charleston and the needs of her almost family. It seems that when times are tough or tight they just get tougher or tighter and her stress blooms first as her clients completely reject what they said they wanted with only a week to go before she is schedule to decorate their houses but they still want her to decide what to! Then Cameron comes home with a cast on his ankle and refused to lighten his work load. That should be enough but she discovers that her mother who really wanted to plan the wedding is finding it difficult to keep up with all the work and stress. Finally the Chicago reception site is flooded in freezing weather. With less than a month until the wedding, Harper now has to take over wedding planning starting almost from scratch and still keep that almost family going. Note. The sex is mostly behind closed doors, or at least out of our sight.
My only negative was that she seemed to put things off without much concern even when the timeline should have been really tight.

A must read... Barbara Lohr Windy City series

Reviewed in Australia on June 18, 2017

This is my favourite of all of the books in the Windy City series. I have spent the last few days reading all 6 books so far. Each character is so rich, the way they intwine with the family and non family members. Laughter, sadness, difficult moments and personalities, all created to make a wonderful family story that I just could not put down. These books are a keeper. Let your friends and family know about this author and the Windy City series. They won't be disappointed

I loved this well written story, so many things going wrong it had me wondering if the wedding would happen. Barbara Lohr kept me turning pages and yearning for my own Cameron.
