Dancing by the Christmas Lights

Carlisle Bay, Book 2

By: Angie Ellington

Narrated by: Jamiy McMasters

After returning to Carlisle Bay, Connecticut, and rebuilding a summer romance once lost with the moonlit tide, Brady Carlisle and Olivia Shields are happier than they've ever been. All that's missing is reconnecting their families. A task only a Christmas miracle could bring. Perhaps, a snowstorm and a little holiday magic may bring them all together. Although, being together by circumstance rather than by choice may prove to be more salty than sweet in this coastal cove along the New England coastline.
Brady wants nothing more than peace in his family, as does Olivia. When his sister, Lauren, returns to Carlisle Bay, with three kids in tow, will this become the first of many future holidays together again, or the final break of the rushing tide.

This is book two in a series.

Please note: The visual copies of this book have had very minimal updates, so you may notice a slight change here and there if following along with a visual copy while listening, including the name of Bart in the audio that has been changed to Noah.

Dancing by the Christmas Lights

I really liked that the story brought in some favorite characters, along with some new additions. The book could stand alone, but I think you would enjoy it more with book 1. I like how the author brings in the factors that all is not perfect and families have issues. Weather small or large they can impact each family deeply. The narration is very nice and the story is perfect for the holidays or anytime!

Christmas Fun with Family at the Core

Loved this continuation. I think I would've enjoyed it almost as much without listening to book one first, but I would've missed out on Brady & Olivia's story that led them to this point. So...I do recommend listening to both & am always uplifted after listening to this author's stories & enjoy the narrations very much.

Wonderful Story & Continuation

I've been anxiously waiting for the sequel from this author. I loved Meg Price's narration & love Jamiy McMasters' in this one, also. The perfect mix of holiday sweetness with a touch of spice akin to eggnog. The sassy characters are back & I love them all. I wanted to find out more about Lauren & was happy to have her story weaved in so well!!!

Brady and Olivia part 2

After listening to Book One in the series, I was excited to listen to Book Two. This sweet Christmas book continues the story of Brady and Olivia and shows the rocky path to healing for Brady's family. As with book one, this book follows the growth of several different couples in the family and in the town.
Excellent narration on the part of Jamiy McMasters. Very easy to listen to and get lost in the story.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

Lovely!

I love the way that, even though it’s a sequel, this book can actually work as a stand-alone. I actually read this one first, then found out about the first one, so it made for a cool experience. Great feelings of the holidays and romance!

Christmas In Connecticut

We pick up 6 months after Dancing in the Moonlight. This book focuses on the Carlyle family. We meet new characters and revisit with the original characters. I loved getting to know Lauren and seeing her interact with the family she hasn’t seen in 13 years. Love this town, love these characters and love love love the ending of the book.
Unfortunately I loved the narration so much in Dancing in the moonlight that I just couldn’t accept the new narrator. I know that’s probably unfair and narration is a personal choice but for me I just couldn’t get past it.

Dancing by the Christmas Lights

A sweet continuation of the first book in this series that gives you a great happy ending and so much family love that you can only see good things. A nice, fun listen for everyone.
