A Royal Christmas Wedding

Avery hurried to Susanna's apartment. Would she marry Colin if he really rang the bell for her? Bet your bottom dollar she'd marry him. In a Georgia minute.

Book: ARoyal Christmas Wedding by Rachel Hauck, Zondervan Publishers, 2016
Genre: Romance
Target Audience: Adult Women
Subjects: Love, Trust, Parent Relationships, Trust in God
Summary: The bell rung. No one knows why. Tradition states that a man rings the bell in the old abandoned chapel to announce his intentions to marry the woman he loves. But no one admits to ringing the bell. The media says Prince Collin did. But he hasn't been willing to admit it and there certainly aren't any goats arriving at the home of the girl he has been seen with the most, as tradition dictates. In fact, Prince Collin hasn't been spending much time at all with the girl he is supposedly dating. Instead, Colin is spending his time with the sister of the queen - and goats are arriving at her place of residence! Years ago Avery and Colin were in love. An engagement was even possibly coming soon. Then, all of a sudden he broke off all contact with no explanation whatsoever. Avery's heart never fully healed. She loved him, really genuinely loved him. Now, due to the events of the season, they are thrown back together and reminded again of how much they loved one another.  Love isn't what was lacking before though, and it's not what's lacking now. Trust in God to guide and direct them, even when others advise a different direction is one element needed. There's also a need for rekindled trust in one another after the brokenness of the past. So the questions become: Will Colin ring the bell on Christmas Eve? And if he does, will Avery show up on Christmas morning to marry him?
Notes: A Royal Christmas Wedding is the conclusion of the Royal Wedding Series, finishing the story began in Once Upon A Prince, telling the story of the royal family from Brighton. As with the others in the series, it is a story of trusting God to do crazy amazing, even miraculous things to bring two people together. Each character has to learn to trust God enough to step out in faith and pursue the one God has placed on their heart. I highly recommend this book and the series for the spiritual elements and the gentle fairy tale romance.
Spiritual Content Recommendation Scale: 5/5
Reviewer: J:-)mi

Hebrews 11:6 - And without faith it is impossible to please God because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.
