If you’re only planning on picking up a single Christmas story this year - it should be this one! Christmas on Firefly Hill was sweet, snarky and swoony with just a pinch of angst added.
I completely adored Logan and Remy! I loved their instant connection and attraction to each other, and the mutual pining over their missed opportunity was a great foundation for their story. They had me intrigued from the start, and I was completely hooked after their first sizzling kiss.
Logan’s life as a single dad and firefighter felt realistic and was well written, I could feel his strain and efforts through the pages - he worked so hard to create the best situation he could for his kids. While Logan’s life was highly domestic, Remy was a free spirit, and I loved seeing them fall for each other despite their differences.
In true Garrett Leigh spirit, the characters have to suffer a bit before they get their happily ever after, but even so, the story didn’t have a lot of angst. For being a rather short book, the characters and story had a lot of depth and development which was beautiful to read!
An incredible and wonderful holiday romance, warm and sweet with some hurt / comfort to it. A very realistic story that still managed to feel magical.

I love Remy and Logan’s story so much. It’s so well balanced and paced. It’s emotional, smart, sweet and steamy.
The two opposite’s with an age gap made it sexy and fun.
Both characters are deeply kind and caring men, I adore that aspect of the story so much. They both are so incredibly lovable, I was rooting for their HEA.
The second chance meeting was beautiful, it felt like fate.
I love the part Logan’s twin sons play in the story. They add heart and a great dimension to the relationship and story.
It was entertaining and emotional. I love the authors writing style, it has a smart subtlety that really made the emotional experience great for me. It wasn’t all spelled out loudly, it was in the characters actions and thoughts, though.
It’s a really beautiful romance and emotional journey for both characters.
This was a wonderful story, with memorable characters that are multidimensional. The holidays play a part, but it’s a great read for anytime. I loved it!

Enjoyable story. Liked both MCs and proximity/living situation. Love how the author writes characters who are down on their luck and manage to find happiness. Avoided all the Christmas themed holiday romances before reading this one - won’t be avoiding them anymore!

Soulful and sweet
This was my first book by this author, but will definitely not be my last. Just...wow. The writing, the feelings..this was such a gorgeous story and one I know I will revisit in the future. My heart is so happy and satisfied right now.

I love books with men in uniform and age gap, and this one was done so perfectly. It's a nice short holiday read that has wonderful characters and such chemistry between the two mc's.

Single dads and an age gap are my favorite things.
There is not much of an age gap in this book but I can work with that.
I liked the story and the characters.
Please do not think that this is a light Christmas story. It has angst and sad moments but is quite hopeful and takes place during the holiday season. So let's call it Christmasy.
I think I would like it even more if it was a bit longer. It felt a bit short and rushed.
But don't get discouraged, it is a nice and emotional read.
thank you @gayromancereviews for the copy!

This was mostly just an okay read for me. Logan, single, divorcee father, meets Remy at a festival where there’s instant sparks and chemistry. They share one amazing kiss before separating. Through fate, Remy moves into the workshop Logan’s uncle owns up the hill from his own home. The sparks fly when they reunite. While their love story was sweet (Remy calls Logan, Papa, which while it shouldn’t work … it definitely does lol) I found myself a bit bored? This should’ve been a quick read but it dragged at parts for me. I loved the hurt/comfort parts but I think it just needed a bit more drama? Not a break up but idk some angst! I did like them together though even though I found Remy wildly more interesting than Logan.
Was it steamy? Yeah! And sweet. But I wouldn’t classify this as a holiday romance. The holiday is definitely at the background here. Their love story just happens to HAPPEN at the holidays. It’s sprinkled throughout but meh. I think maybe this book suffered from being too short? Things could’ve been expanded on had it been 20k words longer.
Also fuck you Leigh for all the Locke teases and then dipping out on saying who was with him!!!!!! I’ve been obsessed with Locke since his intro in Rebels MC. And I know I probably sound quite insane but if I don’t get Locke/Nash/Orla then what even was the point.
