Snowed In
Santa should hire Catherine Walsh, because this woman knows how to deliver holiday cheer!
Five years ago Megan pulled a runner from her own wedding and left her village for Dublin. Christian, an old schoolmate and the only witness to her nuptial no-show, watched her go.
Fast forward five years to a Dublin pub where a jostling crowd and one wrong turn result in a messy reunion for Christian and Megan. Shocked to see one another, they commiserate about their anticipated miserable trips back home for holiday visits after years away. Megan is now a pariah in their small village and misunderstood by family and friends as the one who broke “poor” Isaac’s heart. Christian’s string of broken relationships have his family doubtful that he’s capable of true love.
The solution? Christian proposes that he and Megan fake date and be each other’s backup for all events during the two-week visit. It takes some convincing and one ratty cocktail napkin of agreed upon “dating” rules, but Megan agrees. What follows is a two-week visit home that will take the reader through ALL the emotions and fully entertain in the process!
After loving Holiday Romance last year, I was delighted to find myself back in that world with characters I’d already grown to love. I didn’t know they’d be in this book, so that was a great surprise! For those who loved Molly and Andrew’s story in that book and enjoyed meeting Molly’s sarcastic sister, Zoe, and Andrew’s family, the Fitzpatricks, you’ll be happy to catch up with them while Andrew’s brother Christian takes center stage.
The flirty and playful banter between Christian and Megan was hilarious, and their chemistry was off the charts! I LOVED that Christian was portrayed as thoughtful, supportive and attentive to Megan. Why aren’t more male MCs written like this?! Please authors … many of us want this! The spice factor isn’t overly frequent, but it does get very descriptive in a couple spots, so skim those if you don’t like details! These two are easily one of my favorite book couples ever.
This was so much fun, with many laugh out loud moments, but also some truly touching and sweet moments between Christian and Megan with their respective families, but also with each other as they become more trusting and vulnerable with each other. This felt like a story that could have happened this way and the icing on the cake is that there was no third act break-up for a welcome change!
I hope we’ll see more books in this world … perhaps Christian and Andrew’s sister, Hannah, Megan’s brother, Aidan, or Molly’s sister, Zoe? I’d take any or all of them! I highly recommend you make this book and Holiday Romance part of your holiday line-up!
