Thanks to a bone marrow donation from her newly discovered sister, interior designer Allison Miers has just beat cancer and has been welcomed into her new family, the Bertrands of Cypress Bayou. She’s been curious about her birth family for years, and it seems they’re all trying to make amends for her mother abandoning her—even offering a trust fund if she’ll stay a year and give the town a chance.
As Allison arrives in town amidst preparations for the Cypress Bayou Christmas Festival, she’s quickly overwhelmed by the drama and competition between both sides of her birth families. Local mechanic Nick Landry is the most normal person she’s met so far, and it doesn’t hurt that he’s also handsome and friendly. Just as Allison starts to wonder if she’s finally found a new home, family, and a man to love, she discovers that Nick—just like both sides of her family—has been keeping his own secrets.
Family is all Allison has ever wanted, but should she listen to her head or her heart this unforgettable Christmas?
An amazing book to read at Christmas or any time of the year.
After beating cancer and meeting her biological family (in
the first book of this series), Allison Miers is back in Cypress Bayou getting
to know her family better. She is starting
her life over with a new job and a possible romantic interest, Nick, the mechanic/shop
owner who came to her rescue the day Allison arrived in town. Allison still isn’t sure if she will stay in Louisiana
or go back to Chicago, so she has a lot to think about; should she start a
relationship with Nick or open her own business, if she doesn’t plan on
sticking around. A lot of it is still up
in the air. But with a little holiday
spirit and the help of Nick, her family and new friends, Allison just might have
found herself a new home.
This book is a perfect addition to the Louisiana series. I hate to think this might be the end of the series. I love the Bertrand family and the town of Cypress Bayou.
i enjoyed your review. adding this to my tbr list.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good book. But be sure to start at the beginning of the series.
