The Fairy Shop by Tara Lain 5*
Blurb: When Nate Hawthorne meets Asher Dane, the huge, tattooed hunk is the personification of Nate’s dreams. But Nate knows there’s no future, because Asher is also the personification of his beloved five-year-old daughter Delly’s nightmares. She’s frightened of big men. Things turn around for both of them, however, when Delly goes Christmas shopping at the Fairy Shop and begins her quest for a wand that will make her brave. Neither of them guesses that the Fairy Shop will be the source of far more than Delly’s courage. On Christmas Eve, under the influence of a very unusual fairy, Nate’s life will change forever.
My Review: I received an ARC from Enchantress Design & Promo in exchange for an honest review. I am writing this review on 22nd November but setting it to post on release day so as not to spoil things for everyone.
The reason for reading it so early? I can't resist a Tara Lain book in my library, I have just got to read it as soon as possible. This one was exactly the kind of writing I expect from a Tara Lain book. Magical and full of feelings, with interesting characters and great world building. Especially given that it as a very quick read that was written as part of the 2019 Dreamspinner Advent Calendar: Homemade for the Holidays. It will be available today as a stand alone but if the other stories in the anthology are up to this standard they are going to be well worth buying too.
