Peachtree Bluff #4
Christmas in Peachtree Bluff
The newest installment of the New York Times bestselling Peachtree Bluff series follows three generations of Murphy women as they come together to face a hurricane that threatens their hometown—and the holiday season—in this “book equivalent of a warm and fuzzy pair of socks” ( E! Online ).
When the Murphy women are in trouble, they always know they can turn to their mother, Ansley. So when eldest daughter Caroline and her husband announce they are divorcing—and fifteen-year-old daughter Vivi acts out in response—Caroline, at her wits end, can’t think of anything to do besides leave her with Ansley in Peachtree Bluff for the holidays. After all, how much trouble can one teenager get into on a tiny island?
Quite a lot, as it turns out.
As the “storm of the century” heads toward Peachtree Bluff, Ansley and her husband, Jack, with Vivi in tow, are grateful they’re planning to leave for the trip of a lifetime. But Vivi’s recklessness forces the trio to shelter in place during the worst hurricane Peachtree has ever seen. With no power, no provisions, and the water rising, the circumstances become dire very quickly…and the Murphy sisters soon realize it’s up to them to conduct a rescue mission. With the bridges closed and no way to access Peachtree Bluff by land or air, they set sail on Caroline’s boat, The Starlite Sisters , determined to rebuild their beloved town—and their family.
In “pitch perfect tones” ( Publishers Weekly ) and written with her signature Southern charm, New York Times bestselling author Kristy Woodson Harvey explores the magic of Christmas, the power of forgiveness, and the importance of family in a tale that reminds us that, no matter the circumstances, home is always where we belong—especially during the holidays.

I’m a huge fan of Kristy Woodson Harvey’s books. I discovered Dear Carolina shortly after its release and have been hooked ever since. Peachtree Bluff is a well-loved series, and Kristy has brought the series back for one more round with Christmas in Peachtree Bluff.
Three generations of Murphy women are celebrating the holidays with a hurricane on the way. It’s a big storm, too, both literally and figuratively, as the bonds of this family are challenged just as much as their beloved coastal Peachtree Bluff.
Oh, how I loved re-visiting this family and setting during the holidays. There was just the right amount of Christmas sprinkled in. If you enjoy a sweet, small town story full of heart, you have to check out this book and series (or all of Kristy’s other books, too!). They are comfort reads, and this book definitely added to my holiday spirit!
I received a gifted copy of the book.

This is a Christmas Romance/Family Drama, and this is the 4th book in the Peachtree Bluff series. I have not read the other books in this book series, but I did not feel lost while reading this book. I think you can read this book as a stand alone with no problems. I really loved the characters in this book, and the setting of this book is everything. I loved following this family, and I felt the loved of family that each character had for each other. I really enjoyed reading this book. The Christmas parts of this book was really good. I was kindly provided an e-copy of this book by the publisher (Gallery Books) or author (Kristy Woodson Harvey) via NetGalley, so I can give an honest review about how I feel about this book. I want to send a big Thank you to them for that.

Kristy Woodson Harvey’s new book is like a warm cup of cocoa on a chilly winter night. Her legions of fans will adore this fourth installment of her Peachtree Bluff series, and newcomers to her work will love it on it’s own and be compelled to go back and catch up with this quirky but loving Southern family.

Such a cozy, cute Christmas story! I love the Southern hometown feel in Peachtree Bluff. Going into this book, I did not realize this was a series with previous books. However, the book was still easy to read and perfect as a stand-alone. There are lots of characters In this book which took me a little longer to grasp and remember each characters background and storyline. The book is told from all the women’s point of views, each chapter switching between them, which I enjoyed. Overall, a really enjoyable holiday read! Im looking forward to reading the previous books in this series and more from Kristy Woodson Harvey in the future.
Thank you Net Galley and Gallery books for an ARC of this book in return for my honest review!

Book four in the Peachtree Bluff series.
Squee! This is a truly magical and heartwarming holiday story about the Murphy family; three generations of women that are strong, independent, and love unconditionally, and the waterfront, small town of Peachtree Bluff, Georgia.
I love this series, I adore the Murphy women, and SURPRISE! this fourth book has a hurricane named Pearl (my sweet Malty girl’s name), a long-hidden secret is revealed, and a (finally solved) mysterious pirate tale you’ll never believe. Family dynamics, motherhood, marriage, friendships, forgiveness, and second-chance love.. this has it all.. and more. So good. Not to be missed.
Oh how I wish this and the next generation of Murphy’s could continue on.. possibly to see what unfolds for Caroline and her first love, Wes, and what the future brings to Vivi and Tyler.

Loved going back to Peachtree! 🎄🎄🎄
July 21, 2021
They say you can’t always go back home again. But, ladies and gentlemen, you CAN go back home to Peachtree Bluff on October 26th... and it's good to be home. ❤️❤️❤️
There's something so special about revisiting dearly beloved and admired characters a few years after a series has ended, because you KNOW the characters so well, you know how their minds work, their personalities, and you just slip right back into the story effortlessly, and that's what Kristy Woodson Harvey has accomplished here with Christmas in Peachtree Bluff. It was every thing I wanted, and more.
When the Peachtree Bluff books ended with Southern Side of Paradise, Kristy said she wasn't going to write anymore PTB books, but this is "the book that the fans wrote" essentially, we begged and pleaded for it, and I promise you, Kristy has delivered a fitting, adorable, emotional, rollicking ride of a journey back to Peachtree and back to the Murphy women.
As Christmas is approaching, all of the Murphy women have descended on Peachtree Bluff, and Jack and Ansley are about to take off on a destination vacation, but then the "storm of the century" pops up on the map, and a hurricane is headed toward Peachtree Bluff in late November, and no matter how convinced that Ansley is that it isn't coming, the town must prepare for it, and then suffer the consequences. It's a warm, uplifting book, with a great family story and a beautiful ending.
Fans of Kristy Woodson Harvey are not going to be disappointed. And I got to read it early and have all the “Christmas in July” feelings. 🥰 Thank you Gallery Books!

Refreshing and a tad crazy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As I was reading this book, I kept thinking I knew these people, and sure enough, I had read one of the prior books. Unlike the other book, I did feel a bit lost starting this one. There was not much in terms of the tie in's some author's do, other than reminding you of some of the bigger events. This one seemed even a bit more crazy than the last story I read as it includes all of the family, and some of the ex's too! Whew.
But underneath the wild, crazy family drama comes a heartwarming story of strong ties that binds the family. Forgiveness and fierce connection that catches you off guard. Plus, Harvey gives us a few budding romances that are so sweet and a much needed break from the swirling activity and issues.
All of this is wrapped up into a perfect coastal town with the right amount of the Christmas spirit to lift your mood, bring a smile on your face, and leave you wondering how you can move there too. Christmas in Peachtree Bluff is the epitome of Southern spirit and a delightful women's fiction that begs to be read this season!
But before you grab up this one, do yourself a favor and read at least one of the prior books for the full effect!

There is nothing better than diving into a new book from one of my favorite authors and it felt so damn good to be back in Peachtree Bluff. Being back during Christmas made it that much more magical and checking in on the Murphy family was an absolute delight. I remember when I finished the previous book in the series I was so sad thinking there would be no more books and then when Kristy announced this book I was so thrilled. Although I read the last book back in 2019 I had no problem jumping back into this world, it’s a place that’s so memorable and felt like reconnecting with old friends. My favorite part of this one was seeing what kinds of traditions the Murphy’s participated in during the holiday season and they were just as special and magical as I had hoped for. If you still haven’t caught up on this incredible series do so asap so you can cozy up with this special book this holiday season, I can’t say enough good thing about it, so I’ll just leave it with this 👉🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a magical, heartwarming holiday read!
I absolutely love the Peachtree Bluff series by Kristy Woodson Harvey (and every other book of hers that I've read), so I was super excited when I found out she was writing another book in the series, especially one set during the holidays.
Y'all, Kristy didn't disappoint with Christmas in Peachtree Bluff...it was the perfect visit with the Murphy women-Ansley, Caroline, Sloane, Emerson, and Vivi, characters who feel like old friends-and the town of Peachtree Bluff, Georgia, a place that feels like home because of Kristy's evocative, descriptive writing. No worries though if you haven't read any of the previous books in the series before because this one can be read as a standalone since Kristy gives plenty of details so you won't be left in the dark!
I admit this one made me cry more than once, but not because I was sad. It's heartwarming and touching in all the best possible ways. My heart felt so full while reading the dynamics of this family and this town, their bonds in the most trying of times. I wish the town were real because I would definitely want to live there, especially at Christmas!
Highly recommended (and all the Peachtree Bluff books...all of Kristy's other books too)!

This small-town holiday novel will get you talking.
We have a family that has to pull together during a stressful time and three generations of the Murphy women are up for the challenge. Because I enjoy the author's writing style I am looking forward to reading her other books in this series to catch up on the back stories.
I recommend this warm and fuzzy Christmas book to you.

"Sometimes, the best dreams come true are the ones we don't even know we have."
KWH, Christmas in Peachtree Bluff
Ok.....here is my honest review. This book was fabulous. F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S. Read in all caps.
It is no secret I am a huge Peachtree Bluff fan. I cried when Emerson's story was over in book 3 because I adored the characters, the setting and the writing in general. This was the cherry on top of the sundae. Delightful. I adored every single second being back in Peachtree Bluff. Oh and bonus. It's Christmas. I mean charming Christmas in Peachtree Bluff does not get better. I have loved the Summer's spent in Peachtree....but Christmas, it hits different.
Now, let's talk about whether I "recommend" this title.
Yes ma'am, I do. (or sir). I will say this. I would like for you to start at the beginning. I think you would miss so much by skipping any of the previous books in the series. You need to fall in love with the Murphy sisters and their mama. You need that back story. Could you read this book alone? Sure you could. But Why?
Long story short. This might be my favorite of the Peachtree Bluff series. Maybe....or maybe I love them all like my kids. Equally, with different highlights and personalities? Yep, I think that may be it. Pick it up. For real.

This is book 4 in the Peachtree Bluff series. I only read book 1,which I absolutely loved, and have been meaning to get to the others, but just haven't yet. I have loved a few other standalones I've read by her and couldn't wait to read this Christmas one, so I just went with it. I really enjoyed it.
Kristy has such smooth writing and I just loved this story of the Murphy family. I love the setting at Peachtree Bluff coast. This was told through each woman's pov, as it switches with each chapter. There is plenty of family drama and there is also a big storm heading their way, as they end up stranded!
I loved reading about their family holiday, and Christmas. I thought the storm suspense really added to this one. This was heartwarming and definitely had some funny parts, but also has some suspense. I enjoyed the time with the Murphy family and I'm looking forward to getting to the others in the series. So enjoyable!

“If we let them, even our largest challenges can be our greatest allies.”This was my first book from Kristy Woodson Harvey and her Peachtree Bluff series. Christmas in Peachtree Bluff is the 4th installment in a collection of themed standalone novels. This book follows multiple family members as they all weather the storm of life and make it out the other side with resilience, optimism, and love.
I promise I’m not a grinch, but I’m not 100% feeling Christmas this year. If any book was going to change that it would be this one but it didn’t and all I felt was slightly annoyed. This rating is for my personal enjoyment only and not a reflection of the story or writing. This is a heartwarming story (except for the angsty teenager bits) and it will compliment a readers existing Christmas spirit beautifully.

Southern Fiction at its finest. Small towns, kind people, plus a hurricane during the holidays. Oh my 😱
Ansley and her 3 adult daughters come from generations of residents on Peachtree Bluff, an island off of Georgia. Each daughter has their own struggles in love and life, but their bond as a family keeps them protected and gives them strength.
Despite living all over the country, they come together for Thanksgiving and most retreat to NY with the hurricane approaching. Ansley and her husband, along with her teen granddaughter Vivi, are set to head out to Australia for a cruise of a lifetime. Vivi is a teen girl, and anyone who knows teen girls, knows she isn't the easiest person to deal with between her foul mood and selfishness. Both combined together result in their missed flight so they are forced to ride out the storm.
The family comes back together in the days leading up to Christmas to rebuild the town and stays together to celebrate the most wonderful time of year.
I loved this wonderful story about family, new love, old love, young love and mature love. And any book that has a reference to Love, Actually is a winner in my book. This is a sappy sweet book, just the way I like them ❤️
This is book 4 in the Peachtree Bluff series and my only regret is not starting the series at the beginning. Don't get me wrong, she perfectly crafted this story to stand on its own, and it does so perfectly! I just loved the characters so much and wish I knew them even better. So I bought the back list 🤣
Thank you Uplit reads for my gifted copy

Kristy had me at Peachtree Bluff! 🎄❄ CHRISTMAS AT PEACHTREE BLUFF is truly a gem. A charming tale that will simply capture your holiday heart.
In CHRISTMAS AT PEACHTREE BLUFF, Kristy transports the reader to the quaint coastal Georgia town for a heartwarming Christmas tale of family, friendship, new beginnings, and finding a home and a chance at unexpected love when you're not even looking.
Kristy Woodson Harvey has made Christmas miracles come true for all book lovers and readers out there who have fallen in love with this series and the Murphy women. Beautifully written, my favorite of the series. The author has outdone herself.
In this fourth book, a lot is happening in the small coastal town of Peachtree Bluff, GA!
Jack and Ansley are set to finally go on an extended vacation that they have planned forever. They deserve some time alone. After all, they have waited years. However, fate steps in and their simple life turns into anything but. Now they are stuck with a teenager (and not a happy one, at that).
Caroline and her husband, James are divorcing, and now their teen daughter Vivi is not happy with life and wants to be miserable. Now she is supposed to go on this trip with her grandmother and Jack.
However, right before they are leaving, the biggest hurricane is approaching and this time they must take it seriously. The town is shutting down and the other daughters and family members have left for New York. The bridge is closed and now Viva is missing after hearing some news.
Too late to leave for the trip now, Ashley and Jack are frantic trying to put up shutters on the houses and prepare for the impending storm and now they are searching for their missing granddaughter.
In all the drama Viva meets Tyler (hope we see him again-love) a local boy that changes her mind about the town. A nice little romance here. Kyle and Emerson have some exciting news, we get more beautiful letters. Sloane and Adam get some surprises. Caroline reunites with an old friend from the past, the business has some special news, Jack finds a treasure for Ansley and the girls, and best of all, a magical enchanting Christmas for all!
I LOVED THIS BOOK! I love all the characters and so much fun catching up with friends and family of Peachtree Bluff. Now we must continue this in future books with generations to come. Maybe another Christmas book down the road, please!
A beautiful novel about a little town you'll want to visit, and a love story of a family you won't soon forget.
Reminds me of my special Christmases in Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island every year. I love this town at Christmas. (also in the novel the sisters traveled by boat from Palm Beach to Fernandina —which brought a smile to my face).
When Kristy announced she was writing this holiday fourth book in the Peachtree Bluff series, during our Q&A Author Elevator Series for her Under the Southern Sky back in the spring, I was overjoyed!
Who else misses those magical holiday events in the charming quaint historical towns? I know I do, from tree lightings, snow falling, bed and breakfast Christmas tours, boat shows, twinkling lights, and all the magical and enchanting moments. This novel brings back so many fond memories.
Now we need a TV series. Right? I have read all Sherryl Woods' books, and back when - I always knew someday Chesapeake Shores would be a TV series. Fans of this show and her books will adore Peachtree Bluff.
Wouldn't it be something to have Peachtree Bluff set in the coastal Southeast as a TV series? A Hallmark Movie in the making. Then Kristy would have to keep writing more Peachtree Bluff books. 💖 This is a big family, and we will have lots of generations, friends, and family connections.
Kristy gives special thanks to all her readers and states in the acknowledgments, "this book is for you, my readers." I am truly honored to be one of them. Thank you!!!🙏 What a God-given talent she has. We appreciate her taking the time to pen her second book in one year, on behalf of all readers. Also, during a pandemic, while sharing a little of her own inspiring and charming Beaufort, NC disguised as the fictional Bluff, GA.
I adore NC authors and have been a fan since her debut and read every subsequent book. Here we are at number eight, and she just keeps getting better and better with her winning signature style. She reminds me of Reese Witherspoon. I knew Kristy would be a star from her debut and deserving of this title in every way. She is the real deal!
Magical. Nostalgic. Heartwarming. Full of adventure and romance! Highly Recommend for book clubs and holiday gifts.

A special thank you to the author, Gallery Books, and Netgalley for a digital and beautiful autographed print copy. I also pre-ordered the hardcover copy for my home library collection.
Cannot wait for The Wedding Veil where Kristy takes us to Biltmore House Asheville, NC, March 29, 2022 —a sweeping new novel following four women across generations, bound by a beautiful wedding veil and a connection to the famous Vanderbilt family. (available for pre-order now).

In CHRISTMAS AT PEACHTREE BLUFF, Kristy transports the reader to the quaint coastal Georgia town for a heartwarming Christmas tale of family, friendship, new beginnings, and finding a home and a chance at unexpected love when you're not even looking.
Kristy Woodson Harvey has made Christmas miracles come true for all book lovers and readers out there who have fallen in love with this series and the Murphy women. Beautifully written, my favorite of the series. The author has outdone herself.
In this fourth book, a lot is happening in the small coastal town of Peachtree Bluff, GA!
Jack and Ansley are set to finally go on an extended vacation that they have planned forever. They deserve some time alone. After all, they have waited years. However, fate steps in and their simple life turns into anything but. Now they are stuck with a teenager (and not a happy one, at that).
Caroline and her husband, James are divorcing, and now their teen daughter Vivi is not happy with life and wants to be miserable. Now she is supposed to go on this trip with her grandmother and Jack.
However, right before they are leaving, the biggest hurricane is approaching and this time they must take it seriously. The town is shutting down and the other daughters and family members have left for New York. The bridge is closed and now Viva is missing after hearing some news.
Too late to leave for the trip now, Ashley and Jack are frantic trying to put up shutters on the houses and prepare for the impending storm and now they are searching for their missing granddaughter.
In all the drama Viva meets Tyler (hope we see him again-love) a local boy that changes her mind about the town. A nice little romance here. Kyle and Emerson have some exciting news, we get more beautiful letters. Sloane and Adam get some surprises. Caroline reunites with an old friend from the past, the business has some special news, Jack finds a treasure for Ansley and the girls, and best of all, a magical enchanting Christmas for all!

This was a really cute, feel-good family drama! This is the 4th book in the Peachtree Bluff series. I haven't read the other 3, but this worked as a standalone and I still really enjoyed it! Each chapter is told by someone else (the grandmother, the sisters and the oldest granddaughter), but the book flows seamlessly and I enjoyed each point of view. The characters were lovable and the Southern coastal hometown feel of this book was perfect.

Thank you UplitReads / Gallery Books for the gifted copy.
It’s no secret that I love Kristy Woodson Harvey and her books. To say I was thrilled when I heard she was revisiting the Peachtree Bluff series would be an understatement – I loved those characters and was ecstatic to have a chance to spend more time with them…and what better time to be with them than at Christmas?
Even though this book is the fourth book in the Peachtree Bluff series, it definitely can be read as a stand-alone. Kristy gives just enough back-ground on each of the main characters so that you understand the relationships between everyone without giving everything away that happened in the previous three books. However, I highly suggest picking up the earlier books because they are just sooo good and really make this book pop if you know what I mean. And if you decide to read this one first, I think after falling in love with these characters, you will definitely want to go back and read the earlier ones!
One of my favorite aspects of Kristy’s writing is her ability to create characters that you are immediately drawn to. She allows us to see the perfectly imperfect world of her characters that any of us can relate to and I think that’s what makes it so readable. You will fall in love with them right from the start, cheering at their successes, cringing at their missteps, and feeling humbled by their hardships.
This book really had a personal connection for me because I have lived through a few hurricanes and big storms living on Long Island, NY. I could feel the anxiety and stress that the Murphy women were dealing with first in trying to decide whether this storm really was going to be as bad as predicted and then once it did hit, navigating the aftermath. I’ve been there and there is nothing like that community spirit that comes through like we see in Peachtree Bluff. I loved that seeing that, but I also loved that we also see the individual storms that the characters are facing and seeing how they weather them.
These characters have definitely found a place in my heart. They are so well-developed and real, they are flawed and complex and I feel as if I see shades of myself in all of them. I think that is why I love them so much. Relationships continues to be the heart of this series – mother-daughter relationships, sister relationships, relationships between spouses and significant others – and with all these with see the natural ups and downs that take place. Nothing is perfect one hundred percent of the time and I loved the way Kristy makes these true to life. They take work but there is always love behind everything.
I cannot recommend this book, and this series, enough. These books are the perfect mix of emotional and comfort reads. And I loved that this one had a holiday spin – it’s perfect to add to your upcoming seasonal reading list!

It's wonderful to spend time with old friends during the Christmas season. This book gives us a chance to spend time with the Murphy family in Peachtree Bluff. It put me in the Christmas mood even though it's a 90 degree July day. I'll need to read it again closer to Christmas.
Ansley loves Christmas - decorating at the store and at home and she always looks forward to the activities in her town -the tree lighting, the candlelight tours and Christmas markets.. They are all important traditions for her and she enjoys spending time at these events with her children and grandchildren. The entire family is home for Thanksgiving and Ainsley and Jack are excited because they are leaving right after Thanksgiving to take their dream vacation on a cruise in Australia.
Emerson and her family are there from California, Sloane and her son and daughter Vivi are there from New York City and Caroline and Adam live in town. When the sisters get together it's always fun for everyone but this year there are two problems - Vivi and Pearl. Vivi is typical teenager who is hateful to her mother and blames her for the divorce between her parents. Pearl is a hurricane that is scheduled to come on shore at or near Peachtree Bluff. Ainsley isn't paying any attention to the hurricane warnings because she thinks that it's too late in the year for a dangerous storm.. The sisters and their families go to NYC after Thanksgiving with plans to return for Christmas. Vivi is giving her mother so much trouble that Ainsley and Jack decide to take her on their cruise. As the storm gets closer, Vivi runs off in anger and they weren't able to evacuate and now have to ride out the storm and it's a vicious storm that will cause damage and flooding. The section of the book about the hurricane was very tense I wanted Peachtree Bluff to be undamaged and was really worried about Ainsley and Jack because their home was on the water. The three daughters are afraid for Jack and Ainsley and Vivi and know that they have to rescue them. Do Ainsley, Jack and Vivi stay safe? Are the daughters able to rescue them after the 'storm of the century'?
As always, Kristy Woodson Harvey has given us a story about family and the problems and love that every family has. Her characters are spot on and remind me of people that I know. She says that this is the last book in the series but maybe - hopefully - she'll change her mind. I hate to say goodbye to the Murphy family. Kristy's legion of fans are going to love this book. If you haven't read her books - read this series and I guarantee that she will become one of your favorite authors!
Thanks to netgalley for a copy of this book to read and review.

It is so very me to start a series on book 4.
Luckily this read perfectly well as a stand alone with the author kindly adding little snippets of the character’s back stories to clue me in.
This is family and community oriented and it is as funny as it is charming with all the characters coming together to rally round. Whether that’s over wine to be there through personal difficulties, to brace for a hurricane (that Ansley swears will not happen) or simply to pass a coffee to its rightful owner.
Now I am English but unless you’ve been living under a rock you will probably have heard of Southern charm and manners. Where everyone is respectful and family is of high importance. I loved the television series Hart of Dixie and this encapsulated the same wonderful features.
With Vivi acting like the devil incarnate after her parents split and her mum Caroline close to breaking point, maybe a break to Peachtree bluff and being surrounded by loving family will be just what they need. From a teenage tornado to a full blown hurricane this family will need to pull together to save what really matters.
Narrated by Ansley, her daughters Sloane, Caroline, Emerson and granddaughter Vivi. Each character having their own stories running parallel to the main story. The author writes as easily from the view of a grandmother as she does a stroppy self absorbed oh woe is me the world is ending teenager.
This has drama, comedy, romance and characters that will hook you in. The writing flows beautifully and I became so absorbed in the story I was sad to reach the end.

Quaint, heartfelt, and evocative!
Christmas in Peachtree Bluff is a delightfully amusing, festive tale that sweeps you away to Peach Tree Bluff, Georgia and immerses you into the lives of the Murphy family, especially four strong women, as they gather to celebrate, support, interrogate, heal, grow, communicate, close doors, open new ones, take chances, and survive mother nature.
The prose is vivid and expressive. The characters are genuine, compassionate, and reliable. And the plot, including all the subplots, intertwine and unravel effortlessly into a bewitching tale of life, love, friendship, family, self-reflection, determination, community, happiness, holiday traditions, romantic moments, blossoming relationships, stormy weather, and the special bonds between sisters.
Christmas in Peachtree Bluff is another absorbing, uplifting, magical tale by Harvey that does a brilliant job of highlighting her exceptional ability to create relatable characters, idyllic places, and memorable storylines that thoroughly enchant from start to finish.

It's Thanksgiving and Ansley and Jack are preparing to take the cruise of a lifetime in a few weeks. All of the Murphy's gather for a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday meal when they get the horrible news of a category 4 hurricane named “Pearl” is heading their way and they must evacuate immediately. Just as Ansley and Jack are ready to evacuate, Vivi, Ansley’s granddaughter, gets some shocking news and disappears without a trace. Will they find Vivi in time and make it to their dream vacation? You will have to read to find out.
CHRISTMAS IN PEACHTREE BLUFF is a wonderful, cozy novel. I really enjoyed it. I have not read any of the other books in the Peachtree Bluff series, but this one can be read as a stand alone. I definitely plan to go back and read the rest of the series. I loved this book so much and highly recommend it to those who love books that put a smile on your face and laugh out loud. Kristy Woodson Harvey has become an auto-buy author for me.

3.5 - A big-hearted multi-generational Southern holiday story full of strong women and second chances. The Murphy women have all come home for the holidays to their beloved town of Peachtree Bluff but with a hurricane looming and lives in turmoil things are about to get messy. When disaster strikes there's nothing like family and good friends to band together and help rebuild.
Great on audio with a full cast of narrators for each of the characters. And while this was part of a series it also worked as a standalone with enough backstory to keep new readers in the loop. Overall a perfectly enjoyable, feel-good, Hallmark movie style story perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber or Jill Shalvis.
