Un Noël chez les Mackenzie (Les Fréres Mackenzie)

The setting feels vividly real but also warm and festive. I'm curious how much research went into the historical details versus creating that holiday atmosphere.

The interactions among the Mackenzie family were so lively — I loved the mix of humor and tenderness. Did that make the romantic moments more meaningful for others?

The holiday backdrop really amplified the story’s warmth and message. I wonder if this was a story the author always envisioned for the season or if it came together later.
