The Jonathon Island series is created by USA Today bestselling, award-winning author Susan May Warren.
When a cynical novelist and charming military doctor become accidental roommates over Christmas, 'tis the season for unexpected romance!
Bronte Parker is a successful very-much-non-romance writer who gave up on her own happily-ever-after long ago. With a looming deadline and a bad case of writer's block, Bronte decides to rent a quaint cottage on Jonathon Island for some holiday peace and quiet. But her plans for solitude are completely sleighed when the cottage owner's brother, Jonah, shows up unexpectedly. Now Bronte is stuck sharing eggnog, Christmas movies, and way too much time with her new accidental roommate—and the last thing she needs is a distraction.
After two years away, Army surgeon Jonah White is finally going to be home for the holidays. And he’s got a big decision to make about his future—something he needs to talk through with his parents. Except, much to his surprise, he arrives to find his family gone on a tropical Christmas cruise and a seriously uptight author in their place. And thanks to a blizzard, he can’t even escape.
Determined to make the best of it, Jonah pushes Bronte out of her comfort zone and tries to help her overcome her writer’s block by showing her a real Christmas—something foster kid Bronte has never had. And as the unexpected pair are swept up in the magical Jonathon Island Christmas festivities, they start to envision a different kind of life for themselves…one where maybe a happily-ever-after could actually exist.
But with a looming book deadline and their temporary living situation nearing an end, can they be brave enough to rewrite their expectations about love and family?

MY THOUGHTS.....
I've enjoyed this series, and now, I've had a chance to celebrate the holidays on Jonathon Island! Imagine a blizzard outside, two very opposite people on the inside, and no way to escape each other's company. One person only wanted a quiet place to finish her book, and the other longed for the joy of Christmas with family. Grumpy versus cheerful. How would this scenario play out?
I loved Bronte and Jonah! From a hilarious first meeting to intriguing snippets of their pasts, from heartwarming awareness until a perfect ending, this is a book you don't want to miss! I was engaged with the characters, the Christmas holidays, and the budding romance. My only reservation? This is the last book in the Jonathon Island series!
I recommend "Meet Me at the Christmas Cottage" to all who enjoy contemporary Christian romance. Kudos to Christen Krumm and Susan May Warren!
I received a complimentary ARC from the author and Sunrise Publishing. There was no obligation for a positive review.
