Finding Christmas
by

About the book...
With all the glittering decorations, twinkling lights, snow angels, gingerbread men and mistletoe, Christmas is Emmie’s first love.

This year, she can’t wait to share her favorite Christmas traditions with her boyfriend, Grant. She thinks he’s “the one.” So when Grant’s hectic work schedule has him more “Bah Humbug” than “Ho, Ho, Ho,” Emmie creates a holiday-themed scavenger hunt to help him find his Christmas spirit. At the end of the journey, Grant will arrive at the charming town of Christmas Point where she’s planned a romantic weekend filled with holiday activities.

But Emmie’s plan backfires when a mix-up has the wrong guy following her clues! Sam, a best-selling mystery writer, thinks Emmie’s clever Christmas riddles are from his agent, who is trying to help him get over his epic writer’s block.

When he arrives at Christmas Point and finds the stunned Emmie, he immediately feels she’s someone special, but she can’t see beyond the fact that the wrong guy has shown up. Inspired by the small, charming town, Sam decides to stay and convinces Emmie to join him in a little holiday fun while she waits for Grant.

When Grant finally shows up, Emmie is disappointed to discover he’s not enjoying the activities she planned and can’t help wonder if he’s really the one for her. She also can’t get Sam out of her mind and all the great times they had together. With Christmas coming fast, Emmie will need the magic of the season to help steer her in the direction of true love…

I'm dreaming of...
THIS AMAZING BOOK!

Seriously guys, if you're looking for an introduction to the holiday season that will transport you to a winter wonderland of delight, THIS is the book for you.  From the meet cute at the flower shop (ahh!) to the planned activities that went awry (or DID they?), the holiday decoration marathons to the unexpected decisions of the heart that must be made, I was IN LOVE!  Emmie is a sweetheart and totally deserved better.  Grant...well, we're not going to talk about him because I'm sure he's someone's ideal, I just wasn't feeling him for our little Miss Christmas.  Sam now, he was totally an ideal, and in reference to the claim for book boyfriend status...still saying he's mine.  I mean, come on!  He's sweet, caring, kind hearted, loves the holidays, has floor to ceiling bookcases, a stacked stone fireplace in a condo with a view, and he's easy on the eyes...*sigh* 

In the end, a wonderful addition to the holiday book genre filled with heart, humor, and holiday spirit to boot.  If you make it through this book without jonesing for some Christmas cookies, holiday decorations, or glad tidings...you might need to check your Grinch meter!  😊
