PAT'S REVIEW
The book opens with Joy and her daughter driving from California to Montana to see her husband’s parents. She is a widow her husband a firefighter, died fighting one. Now she has decided that since her daughter is five that it is time for them to go to Montana and for Piper to have a white Christmas. Once there after surviving getting run off the road by Cole, her husband’s best friend who was plowing the roads. She realizes that the grandparents don’t have any decorations up and all of the pictures are gone as well. Now it is up to her and her daughter to change their home. The biggest change comes in the form of Cole who was abandoned on Christmas and does not believe in the whole season. What he does believe in is Piper and when she is lost he finds her and he begins to change. He also begins to see Joy as someone he is attracted to and wonders if that is right or not. You see story goes along as hope about second chances and new beginnings. Will they stay in Montana, will she and Cole get together? Read this wonderful story to find out. I got this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 4 stars. Follow us at www.1rad-readerreviews.com |
