All mothers like to play Cupid. Even if your mother is Mrs. Claus.
Mrs. Claus is a tad unhappy with her son. She is happy he wants to take over the family business except for the fact that is willing to look for love. So she decides to get some advice from Cupid and get things rolling along the path she wants.
But Nick has met Heather. Heather is an artist who is facing a Christmas alone. for the first time. And Nick is helping out in her town and meets Heather. And jingle bells do really jingle. Can these two admit that they actually are meant to be together? Can Nick forgive his mother and her meddling? Can Nick share the family secret with Heather and make a life together? Well since this is a HEA, we know the answer is yes. But the real magic is the trip they take along the way to admitting they do love each other.
I did receive a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for a fair and unbiased review.

This was a fun read with a great spin on the traditional lore of Santa and his family as well as others, you can't help but love Carol Kringle and you get her wanting to see her son Nick happy especially now she doesn't have much to do with everything being automated, so you know what they say about "idle hands". Carol decides to join Nick on his yearly visit to a town to spread joy and Christmas spirit, while Carol decides to do a bit of matching with the list of names her bestie Valentina aka Cupid gave her for Nick as well as a few lucky people she meets along the way, thankfully Nick meets Heather before his Mum! You get plenty of laughs, a meddling but well meaning mother, loss and finding yourself as well as a sweet love story with a sprinkle of magic and Christmas spirit.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy from the Author. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Cupid Claus by Sarah Fischer and Kelsey McKnight is an enlightening holiday romance that makes me smile.
Carol Kringle is our Cupid Claus and the reason why we have this book. She is a bit nosy when it comes to her only child having a love life and not just focusing on work. He is a Claus, though, and that is hard. Carol grows from being this nosy mom that wants what is best for her son to realize that maybe she shouldn't be butting in. She is a marvelous character who wants her son to be happy and have a support system built in like when his dad took over being Santa. Carol would also like some grandkids.
Nicholas, Nick, wants to be a great Santa and without having to take someone away from their lives to be his wife. He is a great guy for thinking that and is a romantic at heart. Nick loves spreading joy and cheer when he can before Christmas. He is open to the possibility of changing his mind, but he doesn't want his mom to push him.
Heather Arnett is another fantastic character in this line up of characters. She wants to skip over Christmas entirely. Too many memories are wrapped up in this holiday that makes her sad. She puts on a brave face and goes through the motions of everyday living. Until Nick shows up and tosses her plans out the window when they meet at a homeless shelter. Heather ends up changing throughout as Carol does, and I love seeing that.
Cupid Claus by Sarah Fischer and Kelsey McKnight is about a nosy mother who wants what is best for her son. It is the perfect holiday romance that has a bit of fantasy in it and being close to the ones that someone will consider family. I am giving this book five stars and recommending it to anyone that loves reading holiday romance books.
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of Cupid Claus by Sarah Fischer and Kelsey McKnight.
Until the next time,
Happy Reading!

This book was so freaking cute! It's over 100 degrees right now in California and this book was exactly the Christmas in July sort of book that I needed. It was straight out of a Hallmark movie and I absolutely loved every minute of this book.
Heather and Nick are both such caring, thoughtful, giving individuals, I loved watching their journey unfold. AND there was some super awesome magic tied into the book and some lore that made me love this all the more. Can't wait to read other books by these authors!

I love this story about Santa’s family. I have, since a child, wondered about Santa, Mrs Claus, the elves...were there children? Did elves marry? Have families? What did the North Pole really look like? Did Santa know the Easter Bunny, the tooth fairy, St Valentine? Were the shoemaker’s elves kin to Santa’s elves? I thought about it all, dreaming about it. Am I still curious? Yes. I’m not even going to try lying. I clap for fairies and believe in Santa.
This book was perfect for me. When Mrs Claus, Carol, called on her friends..you have no idea how delighted I was! Reading about the North Pole and how Nicolas was changing it with technology fascinated me. Yes, it also saddened me. I like the elves working. But the best was in reading about Nick, Heather and Carol. I’m not going into that because it would take away the reason to read. Make no mistake, I want you to read it. I want you to feel the wonder, delight, anxiety and worry. I want you to crave chocolate chip cookies and hot chocolate made special. Stop reading the review and go read the book.
I received an ecopy of this book from BookSprout for review consideration. All thoughts are based on my feelings while reading the book. My review is voluntary.
