Hi there!
Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers...the place to be whether or not the weather outside is frightful, because the bookish fun is surely delightful!
Today, we're shining the spotlight on a holiday read that made its publication debut this November from an author whose well known in the reading world...just not so much here on my site. How come? Well, simple really...her works are generally housed in the Romance section of libraries and bookstores and it's only been this past year that I've ventured into a few select works in this area. Taking that whole "don't judge a book by its cover" bit to another level with "don't judge a genre by the majority of its inhabitants".
To each their own in the reading arena, hence why there are SO many options out there....but every so often my eye, nay my head was turned by a cute cover with a severe lack of heaving bosoms or a catchy title that didn't include someone's rank or a direct exposure of their "final destination", if you know what I mean. The title we're featuring today falls squarely into my narrowed down interests within the category and unfortunately due to time constraints, it's only going to serve to tantalize you and me both. *le sigh*
Spotlights....wonderful posts but they always leave you wanting more.
So, ready to want more? ^_^
Here we go!

Sharp-witted, independent and intent on guarding her heart, she's the last person Logan can see himself falling for. And Darcy is convinced that a relationship is the last thing she needs this Christmas.Yet between the snowy silence of the winter woods, and toasty moments by a crackling fire, their two lonely hearts collide. The magic of the season brings them each a gift neither ever expected—a love to last a lifetime.

Sounds good, right?
I thought so too!
*rechecks its placement on the wish list*
Oh and besides the story, you know if you needed more enticement, I have it on good authority that the author even included a few holiday recipes to carry the fun beyond the page! How cool is that? Just umm, careful who you're making what for especially when one is called 'Seductive Hot Chocolate' as opposed to 'Maple Bacon Bread Pudding'. *ahem*
