From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Proby comes a new story in her With Me In Seattle series… Christmas together one she’ll never forget.
Noel Thompson has gotten her share of strange requests in her career as an interior designer. The call to design a beautiful home for Christmas is more like a dream come true. And that was before she met her new employer—sexy and mysterious, he’s everything she ever hoped Santa would bring her.
As Noel showers his home with holiday spirit, Reed showers Piper with love. And the busy life he’s created for himself no longer seems nearly as important as the one Noel is helping him build with his daughter. But if he can’t convince his decorator to stay, this could be the only year he feels the true wonder of the season.
Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.

There is nothing better than Kristen Proby’s with me in Seattle series and this edition did not disappoint. Reed Taylor and Noel Thompson have great chemistry. Who can’t love a unknown child story and Piper is too cute. I could not put this story down and not root for the three of them. Of course seeing people from other books is always a bonus. I LOVE this series and I highly recommend reading this and every book from this series even though you don’t have too.

Meet Reed, bachelor with out a care in the world, until one day he receives a visit that he wasn’t expecting.

Follow there story as you read along and enjoy their banter and relationship! Grab this asap!
Reed Taylor, a successful investor in Seattle, was surprised when he is visited by a social worker with an unusual “gift”: his 4-year-old daughter he didn’t even know existed.
Piper’s mother, Vanessa Downey, had recently passed away. She was a quick affair he had about five years ago.
Having to completely change his single life, Reed bought a beautiful home and hired someone to decorate the house for his first Christmas with his daughter; He wanted everything to be absolutely perfect, especially after the difficult year the little girl had.
But he didn’t know that there was one more gift from fate…
Noel Thompson had, with two other partners, a decoration company; and at this Christmas time, work always increased. When a new client showed up willing to pay anything to get the house decorated for the holidays, Noel personally took care of the project. And she found himself face to face with a gorgeous man that didn’t hide his immediate interest in her.
She couldn’t imagine marrying anytime soon. There was too much work for it, but Noel couldn’t resist Piper’s charm.
And this festive season, so special for her – after all, her name was Noel! – maybe it was the right time to give love a chance.

Wonder with me is a novella where you see the “hearts” jumping from the pages. Cute, romantic and Christmas everywhere.
4 stars
This is a short and sweet holiday novella that hits the spot at this time of year.
Reed Taylor’s early holiday gift was a four-year-old daughter, Piper he never knew about. But this work-a-holic is taking his Daddy duties seriously and wants to give her the best Christmas ever. He is honest, outspoken, and used to being in charge. He knows what he wants and is not afraid to go after it.
And it seems that one thing he now has his eye on is his new designer, Noel Thompson. She was recommended to transform his house into a Christmas wonderland. She is just as dedicated to her work as he is and does not think she has enough hours in the day. But she cannot resist this fun and profitable project, and she is also finding it hard to resist her bossy and persistent new client. She is talented, witty, sassy, and equally strong-willed.
Their fun and flirty banter and easy attraction grow organically but quickly due to the length of the novella. It is an easy, no angst, delightful story with an adorable kid, compatible couple, and all the wonders of Christmas. But it also makes you think about priorities and making time for things that are important. It made my heart happy to see how loving little Piper could be such a catalyst for change.
I read most of the earlier Seattle stories but not many of the recent ones. This can be read as a total stand-alone, but there are a few cameos for fans of the series as well.
I received an ARC for an honest opinion. Kristen Proby never disappoints. Her books make you feel right at home. Reed and Noel are a natural match. Reed makes you swoon with his authority and charm. This story was pleasant with two characters who were not looking for love, but fate had something else in mind. I definitely would recommend this book and author to others.
Christmas time novella? Yes please!!
Throw in a single dad who wants the best for his daughter on her first Christmas with me? Hello swoon Inset Noel (Joy’s sister from Love with Me) there are some instant sparks with Reed. You will fall in love with these two!
As with any of Kristen Proby’s Seattle books, you see a couple familiar faces that just make you smile.
Absolutely love the world Kristen has created and this book is no exception. Will put a smile on your face for sure!!
I loved this book! It was the absolute perfect nugget of holiday romance. Kristen Proby is the queen of the swoon worthy hero!
I absolutely loved Reed and Noel. Throw in a 4 year old little girl and I am in heaven. Their story was so sweet and loving. From the beginning Reed accepted little Piper and the love he showed her was perfect. This story is what romance is all about. Sweet, loving, sexy, hot, and everything in between. Almost from the beginning they were a family. Neither one thought it was something that would happen to them but they jumped in with both feet and made it work. A fairy tale come true.
