This was such a fun, cute holiday book! I loved the family dynamic the Lords had and how they made Penny feel so welcomed. This gave me a Hallmark movie feel and would definitely recommend!

Great Christmas romcom book, really enjoyed the overall story but did think it was a little long. I had a hard time getting through it which is usually not the case with this genre! I loved all the characters but feel like there were parts that could have been a little shorter, but overall loved the story and the characters! Really heartwarming romantic holiday book... would read another by this author!

What a great book! I enjoyed learning about each of the characters. They were believable, relatable, and loads of fun to get to know. I would definitely recommend this book to others and I hope to see a follow-up!

this was a lovely read for Christmas season and was a very enjoyable read. I would recomend this especially as a gift

2.5 ⭐️

I decided to start reading this on my vacation in Europe, excited to kick off the holiday reading season! While the premise was cute enough (a London woman moves to Dorset after a brutal breakup to work as a nanny for a wealthy family, featuring a Darcy-esque love interest), unfortunately this just didn’t land with me. Penny, the main character, was a bit too unrealistically “I have no confidence even though I’m beautiful”, and her “I can’t believe this handsome man would even pay attention to me” routine got old fast. 🙄 The author was clearly going for an enemies/rivals-to-lovers romance, but literally nothing happened for the first 65%, and then all of a sudden they were madly in love. It just seemed like the pacing was wayyy off.

Ultimately, this was fine for a vacation read I didn’t have to pay too much attention to or work too hard to finish, but the ending fell flat and I could have done without reading this one. 🤷‍♀️

I very much enjoyed getting to know Penny and the Lord family. Such a cozy family Christmas read.

If closed door romance is your jam this is for you. I did find myself wanting a bit more from the romance in this story. However, I loved everyone so much! I found myself wishing for a cozy pj breakfast and tree decorating with the Lords.

This is my first time reading a Christmas novel but i have to say it wont be the last, Christmas with the lords gives all those feel good vibes, from found family, to a slow burn relationship that has you hooked to the end, The Main character Penny has come out of a long term relationship and is wondering whats next for herself. She finds herself in a small town a nanny for a dysfunctional wealthy family, As the story progresses we get some great character development and i found my self giggling thru out the novel with the family's interactions. My only negative feedback would be that you dont really get much of the relationship until almost the end of the book then it kind of feels rushed, where i would have liked to have read more.

The beginning of this dragged on for what felt like forever, but once things picked up I ended up really like it. It was cute and fun, and thought it was a sweet holiday read!

Despite taking a few pages to get into this book, it was well worth it. A lovely Christmassy feeling came with it and is worthy of 4 stars.

Christmas with the Lords is the first book that I have read by Hannah Langdon and it won’t be the last. This is a sweet Christmas romance story about a lady who recently was hurt by her long time boyfriend leaving her, so she decides to make drastic changes to her life in order to protect herself from getting hurt again. Will she take a risk and go after what she really wants or will she go the safe route to protect her heart from being hurt again? Read Christmas with the Lords to find out.
I really enjoyed reading this great story set at Christmas time. The way that the characters were written made them feel so real, which made you become invested in their happiness. I highly recommend this story to anyone looking for a sweet Christmas romance novel with unforgettable characters.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC!

After a breakup Penny decides she needs a change in her life so she gets a job as a nanny. This is a cute Hallmarky book during Christmas. I loved this cute cozy holiday read.

Penny, having been dumped by her boyfriend of ten years, takes a job as a mother’s help over Christmas break, at the Lord’s’ family home. Bunny, is the mother whom Penny will be helping. Bunny along with her twins (Caspian and Seraphina) are staying at her brother-in-law’s home. Lando, who is known as the grump of the family, doesn’t like Penny, right away.

As time goes by feelings develop between Penny and Lando, but will they succumb to these feelings or not do anything? Will the idea of trying a new relationship scare either of them?

This was an amazing holiday read. There were parts that had me in tears, and parts that made me laugh uncontrollably. The whole Lords’ family are an amazing bunch.

Thanks Netgalley for being a part of the ARC for this book.

After a sudden out of the blue breakup from her boyfriend Penny decides she needs a change of scenery. She takes a job as a nanny & hopes for a magical Christmas post heartbreak. This was a feel good festive Hallmark movie in a book! A very sweet story with a Christmassy backdrop to add to the feels!

When a friend mentions a family that needs help with their 4 year-old twins over the holidays. Penny thinks why not, Christmas at a manor house in the country is the opposite of a lonely Christmas at her house and will give her time to plan for a way to add more adventure to her life. She finds adorable, energetic twins and a family that embraces her, except for the owner of the house, Lando. He is a grumpy loner that tries to stay away from the chaos in the manor house. But as Christmas approaches he seems to be around more and Penny catches glimpses of the man beneath the cranky exterior. How can Penny create a future that includes all the things that she wants? Will this family and Lando be a part of it?

I enjoyed this holiday story. Family played such a big part and made me smile as I read it.

I absolutely LOVED this Holiday read! It was so cozy and cute! I felt like I was reading a Hallmark movie. I love the connection between Penny and Lando and how Penny got very connected with the Lords family. This was such a sweet read and I cannot wait to read more from Hannah Langdon. Also the connection with Bunny and how Penny always helped her I loved!

I received a free copy of, Christmas with the Lords, by Hannah Langdon, from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Penny is shocked when her boyfriend dumps her out of the blue, to forget her troubles she decides to be a short term nanny. Penny loves her job and the people she works for, maybe this wont be a dad Christmas after all. Penny is a great characters, I really enjoyed reading about her.

A classic feel good holiday novel. I really enjoyed reading about an older (40ish) MC. It felt more realistic as well because of this. I enjoyed this one. I’d read more from this author for sure.

Christmas with the Lords

A feel good holiday story of a woman looking for answers to her future while healing a broken heart. If you love Hallmark, are looking for a fireside easy read look no further!

Penny, a recently brokenhearted mid 30s teacher decides to postpone her next term of teaching to help out a family who is need of a nanny for the holidays. She takes the time to heal, find a bit of contentment & begin to discover what she really wants from life.

As she begins to go from stranger to one of the family she finds the calling to “run away” fades to the back. Realizing how much her original plan, of relocating to India, doesn’t really make sense, she begins to reopen her heart to Current Lord of the manor Lando. The home where the whole Lord family is staying for the holidays.

This story is then to be revealed that it isn’t just one finding healing from a broken heart, instead many rolled in to one. As each member of the Lord family finds healing, a deeper love of family & the love of the holidays!

You will love each character you meet in these pages!

Happy reading!

I really enjoyed this book! It was such a great Christmas read for me. It was heartwarming, sweet moments, family fun, overcoming heartbreak and plenty of comedy moments too.
Once I started I found it hard to stop reading, it hooked me in with all the cute moments.
Whilst I adored the main characters the side characters were amazingly well written and had such good depth to them. They were extremely likeable too. The twins were so cute! I loved that there were dogs too!
Penny is our main character who is setting out to be a ‘Mothers Help’ over the Christmas period after breaking up with her boyfriend of 10 years. This is where she meets the Lord Family and Lando the Grumpy brother in law.
Lando who is overcoming a breakdown just wants to live a quiet life after he breaks away from his previous lifestyle. It doesn’t take long before attraction between the two is noticeable.
It’s not long before both characters have their exes turn up and it gets interesting!

Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publisher for an eARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
