Once Upon a Christmas Legend is such a charming Beauty and the Beast retelling. It was such a cute and cozy read! I read this in one day, I could not put it down. This book is small but mighty exploring mental and physical wounds the characters are facing in their own life. I absolutely adored Audrey and Ramen’s story and feel like the dual POV did a lot for the story. This book was made for me with a countdown to Christmas, forced proximity, grumpy sunshine, and small town. If you are looking for a small town cozy holiday read with no spice this is for you! This was my first Ciara Knight book but it will not be my last!

A great festive read. I.liked how it was told from both points of view. Looking forward to more books in this series.

This was such a wonderful and enjoyable read!!!! I loved this book and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys this genre. Thank you so much to the publisher and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

who doesn't love a collections of cozy stories. This one was a good one and didn't miss. all stories were good. Read it today.

A great read, the story of Audrey and Ramen. She is supposed to just be passing through town, but the she tracks him down and needs him to give her a second chance in her career. He has been hiding away so will he give her a chance. I liked how it is told from both points of view.

All due to a book and a legend. This is quite a different, yet adorable, take on Beauty and the Beast. Audrey and Ramen have so many of the same character traits, stubbornness possibly being the main one. Yet, he absolutely did not trust her thinking she sought him out because she is a reporter. Sweet Audrey is just trying to find the legendary book so she will find her own true love.

Both of them have been horribly hurt; Audrey, by her former fiancé and former best friend; Ramen, by a lion that attacked and disfigured his face. After they are literally snowed in, then, kept together due to illness, they begin to open up and accept that neither of them is out to hurt the other. Healing begins, friendship develops, and love grows.

Will post on Amazon on release day.

I’m not sure what I’m thinking of this read the cover is absolutely adorable but the contents of the book I just wasn’t wowed it was an okay read but I’m not sure id read others from this author

Such a lovely, wholesome book! No spice at all, and lots of cute moments between the two main characters as we see their relationship develop over their time together.
Set in a small town over the build up to Christmas, the vibes of this book are just all out cosy! This is the perfect book to read on the build up to Christmas with a hot drink, and it’s also not an overly long read. This can definitely be finished in a day!
A beauty and the beast retelling, and the commentary on how the two MCs see each other and how they come to terms with their physical and emotional scars was written well.
I also loved the Christmas legend aspect of this.
Will definitely be recommending!

My review will also be posted to my Instagram page on the 23rd October, @readingrosies
