About the Book
Book: Christmas on Breakers Point
Author: Chautona Havig and Christa DelSorbo
Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance
Release date: September 1, 2020
One man’s last Christmas wish might change two lives forever.
Mallory Barrows has one last Christmas with her uncle. She’s determined to make it the best one he’s ever had.
She knows when she asks what he wants as his final gift, it won’t be a tie or a new mug. He won’t need those where he’s going, and he’s quite happy about that.
Mallory just didn’t think he wanted a miracle wrapped in paper and tied with a shiny red bow!
In a twist on a “last chance romance,” Christmas on Breakers Point introduces a new series featuring five islands, six authors, and a boatload of happily-ever-afters.
Christmas on Breakers Point is the introductory book to the Independence Islands Series.
The Independence Island Series: Beach listens aren’t just for summer anymore.

In My Opinion
I didn’t read the back cover copy of Christmas on Breakers Point before listening to the audio book, but I was aware of the contemporary romance series and several of the authors. Chautona Having’s introduction to the series is not your typical romance. And while it took me aback when I realized this fact, it also added a unique twist to the story.
This is also not a light-hearted, feel-good Christmas story. While it takes place during the Christmas season, there is a lot of turmoil happening with Mallory, Uncle Bud, Joanie, and Geoff. And you get all of their perspectives in this short (under 200 pages) read.
For those who prefer their books in audio format, Christa DelSorbo does an excellent job of bringing the island to life in her narration.
If you are looking for a feel-good Christmas story or one heavy on romance, this is not the book for you. But, if you want to be challenged to take a look at where you are in your faith and how you project that on to others, then Christmas on Breakers Point is exactly what you are looking for.

Thank you for listening and reviewing!
Suzie, Thank you for sharing your wonderful review!
Thank you for taking the time to listen and review. I sure wish there was a category for “Romantic sorta women’s fiction but not really.” That’s where I’d fit most of the time! hee hee
This is a great book!
This book seems to be more realistic. Christmas is not always sweet in the real world.
