The Family You Make

 

During the snowstorm of the century Levi Cutler is stranded on a ski lift with a beautiful stranger named Jane. After strong winds hurl the gondola in front of them into the ground, Levi calls his parents to prepare them for the worst…but can’t bring himself to say goodbye. Instead, wanting to fulfill his mother’s lifelong wish, he impulsively tells her he’s happily settled and Jane is his girlfriend—right before his phone dies.

But Levi and Jane do not.

Now Levi’s family is desperate to meet “The One.” Though Jane agrees to be his pretend girlfriend for just one dinner, she’s nervous. After a traumatic childhood, Jane isn’t sure she knows how to be around a tight-knit family that cherishes one another. She’s terrified, and a little jealous. But an unexpected series of events and a host of new friends soon show Jane that perhaps this is the life she was always meant to have.

As Jane and Levi spend more time together, pretend feelings quickly turn into real ones. Now all Jane has to do is admit to herself she can’t live without the man she’s fallen in love with and the family she has always dreamed of.

My Review

I really enjoyed this book. Everyone was so charming and likable. It was nice that while, Levi and Jane may have been the main characters of the story, everyone was a pure delight to get to know. No one felt like a second or third string in the story. Thus the reason that I really enjoyed reading this book. 

Jane and Levi's first meet may not have been the ideal "meetcute" but it sure is not boring. I enjoyed getting to know Jane and Levi on personal levels. Therefore, when these two did finally start a relationship with each other it felt very genuine. I look forward to the next book in this series and maybe seeing everyone again in the future. The Family You Make is a heartwarming, delightful read!
