Top Ten Tuesday: Holiday Freebie

This week's topic is a Holiday freebie. Last week I talked about Holiday movies I've enjoyed. This week I have a few more to share, plus a few that I'm looking forward to watching. I haven't watched as many thins week, clearly I need to get busy!

Holiday for Heroes

I really liked this one! And it was filmed in Connecticut, so I recognized a few places. Plus I saw two familiar faces (CT romance writers) as extras.

Picture a Perfect Christmas:

A photographer has some downtime at Christmas and spends it with her grandmother. The next-door neighbor is a single dad who needs help with his son. I liked this one, especially the moments between the grandmother and her granddaughter.

Sense, Sensibility, and Snowmen

So I liked this one - except they had the characters names/attributes wrong for the storyline and it did drive me a little nuts. But I loved the party planning aspect. 

Still to Watch:

Christmas Wishes and Mistletoe Kisses 

(I'm waiting to read the book first)

Christmas in Rome

Christmas Town

Let it Snow

Christmas Duet

Check Inn to Christmas

Christmas Club

Christmas at Dollywood

Are there others that I should be watching?

Christmas Book Review: Sugar Plum Seduction

The worst thing for single father Gunnar is telling his daughter no. She's excited to try out for the Nutcracker at her dance school, but the auditions and the practices will wreck havoc on his schedule. When the dance teacher offers to help out, he can't disappoint his daughter.

However, Norah awakens feelings in him that he feels guilt for having. Cancer took his wife from him and he's not sure he's ready to move on. But fate has a different idea...

My Thoughts: I really enjoyed this novella. I love this trope - the single father with a very cute daughter. I enjoyed the banter between Gunnar and his friend and co-worker Sean. I loved reading about the Nutcracker. Funny, sweet, and sexy - I read this novella in one sitting. If you're a Hallmark movie watcher, you'll want to read this book!

Fun Fact: The author (a friend of mine) was an extra in a Hallmark channel movie Holiday For Heroes. She in the barn scene at the end. You can glimpse her face on the far left
