On a Midnight Clear is a beautiful holiday fantasy that captures the magic of the season, love, and believing anything is possible. I really enjoyed this story when I first read it, and I again found myself becoming fully immersed while listening to it. The narrator captures the wonder and vibrancy of this story perfectly, bringing more life to each scene and character to create a wonderful treat for the ears.
I really loved both Barnaby and Cosmo. Barnaby’s strident dedication to his family’s home and those he employs is admirable, as is his resilient spirit. Cosmo is just as lovely, with an earnest desire to experience it all and leave those around him in a better place. While there’s plenty of romance and a bit of conflict surrounding Barnaby’s financial concerns and Cosmo’s dwindling time with Barnaby, On a Midnight Clear is definitely light on angst and heavy on the sweet, swoony moments.
If you are looking for a story to sweep you away and enjoy a bit of magic with your romance, On a Midnight Clear is definitely worth your time.
