One to share with a friend

I almost passed this one by. I love historical romance and I thought this might be too frivolous. Boy was I wrong! Ms. Wynn was able to tell a delightful tale about a female elf trying to seduce a human male to win a dare by her elfin brother. Well known for their beauty, this elfin maid embarks on this adventure, certain that she will win the man's heart, but unaware that she will lose her own. The characters are well developed(and surprisingly believable!) and the story line is very interesting, yet it is a quick-read just right for the holidays. What could have been a silly story is in fact a heartwarming tale full of humour, adventure and romance. I recommend this book for anyone who enjoys a light-hearted, entertaining tale.

Mischievous elf saves malaria victim in time for Christmas

This book has every quality that makes a book a masterpiece. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and when I finished reading it, I was filled with elation that there was an author out there with the ability to make me feel that way. Wynn creates a magical experience unrivaled by any other. With a beautiful cover and a sparkling plot, The Christmas Spirit is a fantasy rivaling any one of Jane Austen's titles

Trudy the elf falls in love with a human man

Trudy/Faye is a terrific character, and Matthew is a dark, broody man who perfectly offsets Trudy's mannerisms. This is a love story to read again and again. Ms. Wynn is a great writer. A must-read for the X-Mas holidays
