Reviewer’s Thoughts:

I went back on forth on this review a lot.  After reading the summary of the book I was a bit lukewarm but I love Christmas love stories so I decided to take the chance. Three pages in and I had a different plotline mapped out in my head than what appeared to be developing.  Fortunately, Melissa Hill must live inside my head because she gave me exactly what I hoped for.  From that point on I devoured the story.
A Gift From Tiffany’s has quite a few twists and turns.  It goes back and forth between Ethan, Gary, Rachel and Vanessa.  I did not enjoy every character, in fact, Gary was my least favorite but he did add to the story.  The book’s weakest point was the ending.  It felt a bit rushed and was less satisfying than I hoped.  All in all, this was a fun read, good for those long waits for a flight during your holiday travels.
