REVIEW:
4 Stars - Be prepared for a
very different Christmas!
Anna runs her late grandmother’s
flower shop in Vermont, but due largely to some personal losses, she is not
very happy about the Christmas season.
Now, she has learned that she is allergic to poinsettias and other
holiday greenery, which doesn’t make it any easier. Then, with Christmas hardly a day away, a new
customer shows up, right at closing time.
Alexander is a very impressive Russian, visiting Vermont with his
family, and the chemistry between him and Anna is immediate and explosively
hot. Throw in Anna’s friends,
Alexander’s family, and two local brothers who want Anna for themselves, along
with a few personal secrets, and you will be celebrating an intense holiday!
I rate this book
worthy of 4 stars. It is an original, tightly
written holiday romance, set in a Vermont town that turns out to be just a bit
unusual. The characters are interesting
and nicely portrayed, the romance is fast and VERY hot, and there are some
wonderful surprises in store. The only
fault I found is that the romantic relationship gets too hot too soon –
personally, I would have preferred a slightly slower introduction, giving the
readers a little more time to meet the characters before the flames took over. However, it was still well worth reading.
I am grateful for
the free reviewer’s copy I was given.
