Review: Christmas at the Beach is a short novella that links the past novels 10 Beach Road and Ocean Beach with her next full length novel The House On Mermaid Point.
This is a super quick read, with what seems like more pages spent on teasers of Ms Wax's other novels. Christmas At The Beach is only about 50 pages long.
I really couldn't find the point to this novella. Kyra isn't a character that you really care about. She's a celebrity because of someone she slept with. Her son, is adorable, but there's only so much you can do with 50 pages.
What she does do in these pages is get you ready for the next novel, which is getting the ladies ready for the next Do Over house and some family drama which always makes a read more exciting.
Fans of the series will devour this while they wait for the next book.
