This is the story I was dying for. As soon as I finished Rise After Fall, I literally wrote that I wished Amber would come out with novella and here we are. This was exactly what I needed, catching up with all the family members and friends. We get a chapter from everyone and there was soooo much to love about this story. I don't want to give away all the good stuff but there is plenty to love about Cozy After Snow. There is such a feeling of family and everyone is always there for each other. Also, Sara Beth and Leona can throw together a party like no ones business!!!!
This was the perfect ending to the Balsam Ridge series and everything I needed in my life!!

“Well, that’s a wrap”. Amber Kelly said it best. Cozy After Snow wraps up her Balsam Ridge series in a tidy little Christmas bow. You get to see the endings, the happily ever afters for all the Tuttles. It felt like a long, joyous good-bye celebrated around Christmas, with weddings and memories shared. I felt happy and sad all at the same time. I love that she wrapped up the series this way, gave us all a way to “close the book” so to speak and feel satisfied with how everything turned out. A quick, lovely read.

Amber came full circle giving her fans what they wanted; a delightful story from our favorite characters from Balsam Ridge. I love her writing and they way she pulls you in and makes you fall for her characters even more.
This story was like reading a Halmark movie but with a little spice mixed in and no angst. All the fluffy romance and family your little heart will desire.
I can't wait for whatever Amber has in store next. I'll keep coming back for more.

This was the perfect way to end up back in the Balsam Ridge. We meet the whole entire crew again right before Christmas. It’s not a book based on a couple but novella on everyone, We even get perspectives we have never seen before! It was quite honestly one of the most heartwarming books of the whole entire series. It pulled everything together, so completely so perfectly that it was just amazing. We get to see so many peoples hit so many milestones in this book that it just makes you reflect on everything that they’ve been through and that they’re gonna get to go through and it just warms your heart. The whole series was fantastic but quite honestly. I think this is my favorite out of everyone of them. I am so sad to see them go but I loved visiting again and getting wrapped in the holiday spirit.
I was blessed enough to receive this arc from Amber Kelly and Wordsmith publicity but the thoughts and opinions of this review are my own.

The best wrap up to the Balsam Ridge series! I loved seeing all of the couples again and reading about the next steps in their lives. It was so fun to see points of view from some of the older generation parents too!
This series by Amber Kelly has definitely become a comfort series for me. It's low angst, has great spice, and feels like coming home. If you haven't checked it out yet, make sure to very soon! Thank you so much to the author for the advanced copy of this book, I loved it so much!
"They've grown into strong , capable men, and moments like this fill my heart with immense pride, as I'm secure in the knowledge that they will always have each other's backs. They're a living, breathing testament to the values we tried to instill in them-the importance of family, loyalty, and unwavering support."

COZY AFTER SNOW by Amber Kelly
Absolutely perfect!! I love that I get to have a little bit more of each of these couples. It is a great ways to start and try to get my mind ready for the holidays. This was the coziest of cozy Christmas novellas and you will definitely will want to read it if you have loved the entire Balsam Ridge series. We get to see what our favorite couples are up to as the holidays near us and it what I didn’t know I needed. Sure is was a hit bittersweet because it’s like a final goodbye to these couples but yet it made me happy to get a final lol at how happy they are. It’s absolutely perfection and the novella you need going Inter he Holiday season highly recommend you reas the entire series including this amazing novella to close it all up.

This was a really sweet, quick and easy read. I loved seeing where the couples now and it was the perfect way to wrap up the Balsam Ridge series.
The entire series was full of beautiful romances and major found family vibes, giving me the warm and fuzzies so I loved being back with the Tuttle brothers and their families when they come together for Christmas.
Having the POV from mama Tuttle was super special. The family dynamic and banter was so fun and you could feel the love between them.
I would recommend reading the series first if you haven’t already as this does follow on from each couple so there are a lot of POV’s from the six couples and the two mamas.

This was absolutely the cherry on top of the Balsam Ridge cake. Literally. Our favorite Balsam Ridge characters come together in this novella to celebrate a Christmas Eve wedding. We get a little visit with all of them as we see how each couple's HEA unfolds. And yes. I cried. Multiple times. Amber has a way of pulling at my heartstrings, even in novella form, apparently.
It's just a cozy, heart-warming completion to a wonderful series. I love the Tuttles so very much and plan on returning to this series over and over again for comfort and smiles in the future. I can't wait to see what Amber Kelly has planned next!

Cozy after Snow is a novelette by Amber Kelly. My very first novelette. I have to go back and read the Balsam Ridge series. I was give this as an ARC for my honest review.
These were the cutest stories and once I go back and read the series I’ll have more context. I did however fall in love with Weston. His nickname for Anna’s daughter Kaela Baby Duck was so cute and the way he stepped up was just amazing. The permission he got to or propose melted my heart. I resonated with Isley and her dad having Alzheimer’s. Each story was just so sweet can’t wait to go read the series. I enjoyed this novelette.

Cozy After Snow is the best wrap up to the Balsam Ridge series! It was like a dinner with seven dessert - sweet and comforting. We get a chapter from everyone's POV and it's so good. We catch up with all of the members of the Tuttle clan . There's so much love and hope , understanding and accepting in this story. The Tuttle men couldn't get more swoon worthy. And I loved the girls gang shenanigans. For someone like me who lives for the bonus epilogues Cozy After Snow was a chef's kiss read. If you haven't read this series I highly recommend to do it. And it's even better now that the series are complete you can binge read it.

Cozy After Snow was the perfect ending to the Balsam Ridge Series. I enjoyed having a chapter dedicated to the main characters and seeing through their point of view. There was so much love throughout this book. As each chapter was through a different character, there was a wrap up of each of their lives. I really enjoyed seeing Leona, Sara Beth's and Hiltons point of view.
I have enjoyed all of the books in this series. If you haven't read it yet, I would highly recommend to do so.
Thank you Amber Kelly and Wordsmith Publicity for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

We follow along with all the couples from the series as they gear up for Garrett and Ansley’s Christmas Eve wedding. It was so fun to revisit everyone and was a great hit of Christmas magic!
This was such a great series and I love Amber’s writing! This one had lots of laughs and some heartfelt moments that just had me smiling and swooning!

4-star Review Cozy After Snow (Balsam Ridge #7) by Amber Kelly
I believe that this is the final book in the Balsam Ridge series and although a novella, it packed a punch. In Cozy After Snow, we get an update on the couples and their lives and it was good to see familiar faces and catch up on what has been happening.
I love any book set around the Christmas season and it just adds an addiitonal layer of magic to the story. This is a quick, sweet, romantic story which was a satisfying conclusion to the series and one that left me with a smile on my face.

Cozy After Snow is a fantastic novella that brings us back to Balsam Ridge. Ms. Kelly gives us all the characters from the series coming together at Christmas time. All the Tuttles come together and we get to see all the families and how happy they are. Christmas time with a wedding also brings out all the happiness that Balsam Ridge can offer.
This novella was a joy to read and it made my heart feel all warm and fuzzy. However, at the same time, it brought a bit of sadness to me because this is the end of a fantastic series. A definite must-read after the books in this series.

I loved every second of this book. It felt like visiting old friends and even better as we even got some chapters from Sara-Beth, Leona & Hank. I loved this so much and i just didn't want it to end as knew it signalled the end to our time in Balsalm Ridge. This family was everything and this book reminds us of all we have gone through with them all and i loved every moment and was so sad when it ended. I love a Christmas book and this one gave me reminders of Merry Hearts. Thank you Amber.

The perfect way to end a series that readers have fallen in love with!! Christmas is a time for family and love and with every chapter a Balsam Ridge character gets surrounded by just that. With new beginnings, weddings, new family members and an abundance of emotion Amber Kelly puts a perfect bow on a perfect holiday gift for her readers. The only sad part is that it is over - but the series will be read and re-read again and again.

This was a great novella follow up with the whole family. It was wonderful to catch up with everyone to see how they are all doing and the new adventures that await everyone. I also liked that we even got some chapters from the parents. It was great to see their POV.
Really enjoyed this series and I’m kinda sad it’s all over now. But that just means we will get to meet new families and characters to love.

Cozy After Snow is a novella following the Balsam Ridge series. I loved being back with the Tuttle Family and their loved ones.
This was such a sweet story. We follow all the couples from the series and some of their loved ones that leads up to a Christmas Eve wedding. I love an extended epilogue following characters that I just adore. This brings the joy, fun, love and family that is just the perfect recipe for a Christmas time read!

loved this sweet novella, great to wrap up the series
Cozy After Snow is the perfect holiday novella that brings us back to all our favorites in the Balsam Ridge Series. Loved catching up with all our favorites. I loved that each of the couples made an appearance, and we caught up on what they had done and were doing since their books came out. This novella was sweet, sassy, full of laughs, banter, love, and tied everyone’s stories perfectly. Nothing better than seeing all the Tuttle’s get their their full happy endings. Gonna miss the series, but what a way to wrap it up. Great read.

I don’t think I could ever get enough of Balsam Ridge and the captivating characters we met there but it was wonderful to see the changes in their lives.
This story allows us to spend a little time with each character and each couple to see how far they have come and all they have to look forward to in the future.
A family who is always there for each other and the friendships that were forged is what makes this novella and this series so special.

If you’re looking for the perfect little gift wrapped up for Balsam Ridge - then this is definitely for you. We get to catch up on every brother we’ve met, their significant others, and of course the matriarchs and patriarchs that are still with us! I love that we got basically every point of view leading up to the wedding of the century, and it showed the overall Happily Ever After for each couple. I don’t think this could have been done differently!
October 23, 2023
This was a lovely novella to finish the Balsam Ridge series, by far one of my favourite series of all time. I love all the characters and their storylines and romance! This was such a lovely festive read to get all the characters back together and I really enjoyed being back in Balsam Ridge and I’m a little sad it’s all over. A lot of spice in here as always which I adore, very happy with this quick read.

BEST STORIES EVER!
Start with book 1 and enjoy the best series you could ever hope to read. If I could give each book in this series more then 5 stars I definitely would. These are heart warming stories of the love of family and friends in their beautiful Tennessee mountain town. You will live through their tears and laughter but most of all the love and happiness they all share.

This book put me in my feels. This brought me such enjoyment but still sadness that this family's journey is over. In like true Ms. Kelly form she brought out a novella with each family member's point of view. I laughed while reading this. I cried while reading this. This was so much more than just a simple novella this was a beautiful goodbye.

I have loved the Balsam Ridge series - think I lost my heart to Graham Tuttle right at the start. This wonderful family of brothers and their lives has been great to read. The final novella to close off the series and bring a further round of happy endings was just the finale this great series deserved.
I received this as an ARC. These are my views given voluntarily.
