Sugarplum Way + Giveaway


Romance writer Julia Landon knows how to write a happily-ever-after. Creating one for herself is a whole different story. But after a surprising–and surprisingly passionate–kiss under the mistletoe at Harmony Harbor’s holiday party last year, Julia thought she might have finally found her very own chance at true love. Until she learns her Mr. Tall, Dark, and Broodingly Handsome has sworn off relationships. Well, if she can’t have him in real life, Julia knows just how to get the next best thing….
Aidan’s only priority is to be the best single dad ever. And this year, he plans to make the holidays magical for his little girl, Ella Rose. But visions of stolen kisses under the mistletoe keep dancing in his head, and when he finds out Julia has written him into her latest novel, he can’t help imagining the possibilities of a future together. Little does he know, though, Julia has been keeping a secret that threatens all their dreams. Luckily, ’tis the season for a little Christmas magic.

My Review

This book does kind of get you into the Christmas spirit. Yet, I felt like I was missing something and wanted more. Julia and Aidan were fine. I liked them both as individuals but the romance between them was mild and slow. Almost too slow. It would have helped if the version of Aidan from Julia's book was portrayed as more bold. It was indicated as such but never really shown. For example: Julia mentions that the dance scene with Aidan in the book was hotter than the one in real life. I would have liked to have read a snippet of this scene.

The children actually kind of stole the spotlight from the couple. They were so cute in the way that they just were bold in what they said and did. Additionally, the story did pick up in the latter half of the book. On the bright side, I did like the town of Harmony Harbor.
