Synopsis
Curl up with this small-town Christmas romance--the perfect cozy holiday read. Christmas isn’t Christmas without snow. So Dixie Dunham believes. But she’s about to experience a Christmas with nothing but cold, gray rain after taking a job at the Starlight Winery in Pineview, Oregon, smack in the middle of wine country. Dixie likes her new job at the winery and she’s hoping owners Jamie and Ernest will soon name her to the position of national sales manager. She’s certain the proposal she’s working on for a city-sponsored contest will cement her claim to the job. That would be something to impress the friends and family she left behind in New York. And Dixie is desperate to impress them, seeing as how she fled after her fiancée jilted her at the altar in favor of her maid-of-honor best friend. Now as the December days shorten and darken and Pineview celebrates the season with lavish decorations and festive events, it’s hitting Dixie hard how much she’s lost. All she has left besides her job is the company of her loyal dog, Bo. And a Christmas without snow. When Jamie and Ernest introduce her to their good friend Max Pettigrew, who has just moved from Paris back to Pineview after a wrenching divorce, she’s instantly attracted to him. But Max Pettigrew never met a woman he didn’t want to flirt with. All in the strictest of innocence, of course. Too bad what he thinks is charming flirtatiousness is off-putting to Dixie. Ridiculously handsome he may be, but he’s also ridiculously annoying. And she does not need more annoyance in her life. When the two of them turn out to be vying to win the same city contest, her annoyance turns to anger. But Max grows more determined to win her over, inviting her to the Pineview Christmas parade and holiday parties, and turning to a stream of self-help books to help improve himself. Can Max mend his entitled bro ways? Will Dixie get her promotion, and perhaps more important, her snow at Christmas in rainy Oregon?
My Review
This was a brilliant novella. I loved every second of it. For such a short story the characters were fantastic and I really connected with them. They were realistic and fun. I just loved the Story line and how forgetful she was while trying to get her promotion it was fun and interesting. It was a brilliant heartwarming story that flowed so well. It definitely put a smile on my face and perfect for the holiday season. It was so refreshing to read a fantastic story free from spicy scenes. I really recommend this book as it is so well wrote and was a delight to read. The pace was great and it just made me want to read more from this brilliant author.
Only the highest of praise goes out to the author and publishing team for creating such a wonderful and interesting story that you will not be able to put down.
