From the #1 bestselling author Leeanne Slade, get into the festive spirit with a comedy about rings, reunions and reconciliations.

This Christmas is a special one for Kitty and Leo: not only is it their first since becoming an official couple, but it’s the first in their brand new home. After a whirlwind summer together, they are planning to spend the Christmas period curled up in front of the open fire, exchanging gifts and making new traditions.

But when not one, but two sets of in-laws but two sets of in-laws unexpectedly arrive on Christmas morning, they are forced to host Kitty’s Mum and her aggressively frisky cat, Kitty’s Dad and his Scrooge-like attitude, and Leo’s Mum and her treasured family heirloom: a diamond ring she wants Leo to give to Kitty. Kitty and Leo thought they had this Christmas all figured out. . . It might be time to think again.

For listeners who fell in love with Kitty and Leo in THE REBOUND, and for those meeting them for the first time, get ready to swoon - and laugh - under the mistletoe.

Featuring an original theme song written by by Shelly McErlaine, with lyrics by Leeanne Slade, performed by Hey Ho.

Same great writing, same easy-to-listen-to storyline, but with the new “Leo” narrator they made it sound like kitty started dating a 50 year old English teacher. Still good! Download it!

Everything except Leo’s new voice

I really enjoyed listening to this story, loved the continued characters/story. I wish the same voice had been used as in the first book as it took me a while to get used to the change. I preferred the book before this but still found it to be a very enjoyable listen.

Great Christmas listen

Truly enjoyable easy to listen to story, that has great characters. I would think this would make a beautiful movie. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Excellent

Claudia Jesse and Tom Bateman could read the phone book and I’d listen. Luckily for me it’s a sequel to The Rebound and thankfully not as heartwrenching! Kitty and Leo deserve their second chance that they earned, and it was funny (though stressful) to see them hold their first Christmas with both sets of parents and all their parental pressure. I loved that we got more on how Leo and Kitty have landed on their [spoiler] backstories and let’s just say I’m so glad the author didn’t pull and Abby Jimenez ‘miracle’ bc I detest those plot twists. This book instead acknowledged that some lives will be different and not cookie cutter picket fence. Thank you Leeanne for this Christmas treat, if you ever feel like another Kitty and Leo adventure I wouldn’t be unhappy ;)

Loved it
