    What a good feeling story. While this is a short, Aubrey Wynne has created a haunting, yet heart warming romance that brings the true meaning of Christmas. the story of a lonely, talented artist, Henry paints for the pure love of his art. He paints during the day, and at night he is a guard at an art museum. There he is enamored with a painting that is stark, but has a beautiful woman in it. And there the Christmas magic happens. This story has so much love and the way it progresses with Henry, his painting and the supporting characters is so touching, it will bring the spirit of Christmas right to your ears.

    Tom Jordan’s velvet voice brings this story to life. His portrayal of Henry is exactly as I imagined it to be, bringing that warm quality to this magical story.

    This was a short story, but sweet and romantic fantasy. The end was perfect.

    Tom Jordan did a great job of narrating.

    I requested this audio book from Audiobooks Unleashed and have voluntarily left this review.

    Security guard by night, artist by day. Henry was shy and reclusive.
    He’d given his heart to Rebecca and one Christmas eve, she gave her heart to him.

    I really loved the magic of this short story, it was so sweet and honest and so very human.

    The relationships between Henry and other characters is really lovely to see, his family connections are tenuous and stressful apart from with his aunt lucy and her unending support and defence of him and that she is the only person he sends a hand painted Christmas card and his joy at imagining her face upon recieving it.

    I especially liked his friendship with Melinda and her daughter Katie. It felt so genuine the way it developed and his realisation that he loved the idea of her but not actually her and that this developed into a deeper, truer friendship is lovely.

    The magical twist at the end and Melindas understanding of her friend is so sweet.

    The only thing that threw me slightly was that sometimes they referred to him as Henry and other times as Hank, at first I wondered if they were different characters but by the end it became clear it was meant as the same person.

    I could listen to Tom Jordan narrate anything.

    I love his tone and cadence, he brings a genuineness and softness to the story that just made it a really enjoyable listen.
