★ ★ ★ ★ ★ “This series is a heartwarming, small-town must read!”

Fans of Netflix's Virgin River series and Sweet Magnolias will love this small-town, feel-good romance!

Shelley Jones is an accountant by day and one of Santa’s Secret Helpers by night. Helping Pastor John organize the next fundraising event for the church should be easy. But taking children on a train ride around Flathead Lake in mid-December is asking for trouble—even if it is The Santa Express.



Pastor John McDonald wants to make the world a better place. And he’s doing it, one day at a time, from a small town called Sapphire Bay. Raising money for the tiny home village is his top priority.

When The Santa Express is in danger of being canceled, Shelley and John have to work together to make the event happen. And maybe, if they can leave their troubled past behind, they’ll create a little Christmas magic of their own.



THE SANTA EXPRESS is the fourth novel in the Santa’s Secret Helpers series and can easily be read as a stand-alone. Each of Leeanna's series is linked so you can find out what happens to your favorite characters in other books. Happy reading!

Praise for Leeanna Morgan’s books:

“I am addicted to Leeanna Morgan's books! The only problem with them is that I hate coming to the end of one, and can't wait for the next good read. I love how she weaves the characters together and draws you right into their lives. If you haven't discovered her, please do give her books a try. You won't be disappointed, except for not having found her sooner!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I couldn't put it down. I purchased it today and finished it just now. Captivating story from beginning to end. Definitely a five-star book.”

Q&A With Leeanna:

You live in New Zealand. Why did you decide to set your novels in Montana?

When I started writing Gracie's story in Forever Dreams I had no idea we'd end up in Montana. But Gracie is a determined woman. She hopped on a plane and left New Zealand for Big Sky country and the most incredible journey of her life. Along the way we discovered that New Zealand has more in common with Montana than we thought - amazing scenery, lots of wide open spaces, and people with kind hearts and warm smiles. We found a home away from home and decided to stay.

Who are the authors you enjoy reading?

I love happy endings :) My favorite authors are Nora Roberts, Jill Shalvis, Kristan Higgins, SJ McCoy, Melody Grace, Jayne Ann Krentz, Barbara Freethy, Pamela Kelley, Debbie Macomber, and Robyn Carr.

What are the best things about being an author?

I enjoy bringing a character's happy ever after to life. It's wonderful plotting out a book, seeing my hero and heroine overcome obstacles and find true love. I also enjoy receiving feedback from my readers. It's wonderful when a story touches someone's heart.

As usual Ms.Morgan did it again. She wrote a charming story of small town life with characters from other books along with some new ones. I loved reading about a very loving Italian family and the close relationship between the three sisters. I look forward to the next book in this series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Christmas is special in Sapphire Bay
Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2020

Sapphire Bay is a special place that takes care of people in need. They have fundraisers to help build small houses for the homeless, have places to stay and feed those who need it. Counseling for those with PTSD and offer help in many other ways. Pastor John who heads up these things at his church needs help and Shelly a sister of one of his main helpers and friend comes to town to do just that. A whirlwind personality overwhelms poor Pator John and something really special.

A sweet story set in a small town. It’s the holiday season and Shelley is in town temporarily to visit her family. Until she gets caught up in volunteering and gets to know Pastor John better. A story of new beginnings, finding true love, and a HEA.

Thoroughly enjoying this series with its great characters and well written storyline. I’m look forward to the final book which I believe ties up loose ends and takes the reader through weddings etc.
The only thing I’ve missed in the series has been a bit more details about the tiny home ie what they’re actually like. I’d love a description or even an illustration in the start or end of the book.
I can thoroughly recommend this author and the series.
