Hi, book buddies :-) It's always good to have a place like this blog to share my favourite reads and covers. Do you enjoy blogging life? It's time-consuming, but alas, so are books and we love them :-D
Today I have a holiday romance fom one of my favourite authors. TANGLED UP IN CHRISTMAS, by Lisa Renee Jones is a gorgeous second chance romance. Be sure to read it.
MY OPINION
Coming from this author, I just about jumped with excitement over this second chance romance with a heavy dose of small town secrets and scorching-hot passion.
A good man who helps animals, a woman torn over her past with him, and a town alive with Christmas festivals and kids camps. It's sweet and heart-warming, yet also intense with regrets, deeply buried secrets and wild, consuming intimacy that sets fire to bedsheets everywhere.
I found Hannah's circumstances very engaging. She's back from a big city with a heavy heart but still intent on achieving her dreams. Face to face with the man who betrayed her, the sparks and emotions roar a storm in every loaded scene they share. And the explosion of steamy times is phenomenal.
I was moved and enchanted by the whole thing of going back to one's roots with family and friends welcoming Hannah and her fresh, exciting ideas to organize the Christmas events for charity. It mixed well with this broken couple's feelings of raw need and unfinished business. Cookies, animals, the couple from the first book, all are strong elements that support the chemistry and angst between Hannah and Roarke.
I truly enjoyed how this second chance works in stages from rage to longing to trust and reconciliation. This couple exudes love. And the story is filled with joy and hope and understanding, along with family warmth, so it's a perfect match for Christmas. I also enjoyed Hannah's ideas for the social events and how everyone pitched in to help with so much sense of community. Love for horses and boots, and sizzzling passion wrap it all up in one good ol' romance.
I'd have loved it to be even longer, but it comes with a surprise! SANTA BABY is one hot treat that appeals to our secret fantasies of becoming the femme fatale that lures the seducer and conquers him for a night of wild passion. The bookshop owner transforms herself from shy to emboldened and alluring thanks to a costume-themed gala and some magic feminine boldness. I loved it!
It is sweet yet vibrant with sultry desire. And packs a whole plot of suspense, investigations, and trust issues all along with the sensual passion.
Caron fights her insecurities regarding this suave, handsome hottie, and it becomes a renaissance of her strong character and an empowering experience.
The plot grows with the suspense I mentioned. Her down-to-earth, cute personality contast beautifully with his strong, generous yet debonair ways. They slowly fall in love while they are harassed by doubts on her part and business troubles on his. So big trust issues along with the law on their tails ensue, bringing intrigue and dishonesty that increases the tension in delightful ways.
It seemed impossible, but love conquers all and this romance feels warm and perfect in the end, with an extra helping of couples and some bookish paradise. A very worthy read.
