Welcome to the January 2026 edition of An Open Book, hosted both at My Scribbler’s Heart and CatholicMom.com!
I fully admit that my last reading selection of 2025 was chosen as a measure of expediency. I was one book away from completing my annual reading goal, and I spotted a glowing review of a short Christmas romance in my Goodreads feed. Enter ‘Tis the Season to Get Married by J.P. Sterling, a friends-to-more clean, Christmasy romance between Nick and Charlotte, two longtime friends who (somewhat jokingly) make a pact to marry in a year if they haven’t found a significant other. When they wake up in wedding attire the morning after their planned marriage unable to recall the evening’s events, they must piece together what happened and reconcile the events with their feelings.
