Snowboarder Gavin Blake wants to make things right with Rachel, and smoothing her way back in Yuletide seems like the best way to do just that. Making Rachel his date for a week of pre-wedding parties is sure to bring them closer. Except he underestimated how long a small town can carry a grudge--or how much the memory of a long-ago kiss could tempt him all over again.
As the wedding approaches, Rachel remembers all she loved about her close-knit, Christmas-loving neighbors. But even if she can win over the town again, will she be able to convince her footloose, mogul-shredding wedding date that they can find happiness beyond the holidays?
My Review:
I could easily picture this book being made into a tv movie. In a Christmas theme town, two old friends
get a chance at love that they didn’t get the first time around.
Rachel Chambers left Yuletide, New York, eight years ago after a
couple of embarrassing incidents that she wishes she could just forget. She returned
home after making a pact with her girlfriends to make peace with the people of
Yuletide and her former long-ago boyfriend who is planning on marrying her
former best friend the following week. What
Rachel didn’t expect was to run into her one-time crush, Gavin Blake, who is
now a popular professional snowboarder.
As it turns out, Gavin just might be the one who helps Rachel move away
from her humiliating past and get her the respect she deserves from her
hometown.
Some Christmas books you get mostly romance or too much holiday
feel. But this book had a perfect balance of
both. The Christmas theme town was a
little bit cheesy. I would never visit
it. But it fit in perfect with the
story. I couldn’t help but cheer on
Rachel and Gavin as their romance developed.
It was just the right speed too, not too fast or dragged out too long. I was really happy when the town finally
forgave accepted Rachel again. I really
enjoyed this book.
