REVIEW: Holiday Mix Tape by Beau North & Brooke West

Review by Christina Boyd

Jane Austen’s Persuasion translated to modern day Portland, Oregon? The writing team of Beau North and Brooke West hit all the right notes when the worlds of an ex-Marine and an academic collide after nearly ten years apart. Romantic and thoughtful, Holiday Mix Tape is all about second chances, opening ourselves up to vulnerabilities—and then being brave enough to try again. This novella could only be better if it were produced into a holiday TV program.

Rated “Moderate” for some sexual references but not explicit.
