Description

City girl Lacey Lane scopes out Christmas Mountain for a potential reality dating show location and gets more than she bargains for when feelings spark with small town guy Jacob Curtis who doesn’t want his hometown exploited for ratings.

City girl and former foster child Lacey Lane arrives in Christmas Mountain to do research for a hit reality dating show she produces. If the location gets approved for filming then she’ll receive a bonus that will allow her to buy her own house—a forever home after a lifetime of moving from place to place.

Jacob Curtis is a small-town guy who doesn’t want his hometown exploited for ratings. Lacey might think he’s her tour guide, showing her all the best places to film her show, but he has a different agenda: show her all the reasons the town wouldn’t appeal to her TV audience. 

Lacey catches on quickly to Jacob’s goal to undermine her research and soon they’re engaging in a dance that takes them from one end of Christmas Mountain to the other. Before long, she’s charmed by the town and its people, including Jacob, who is funny, heartfelt, and honest. For once in her life, she’s slowing down long enough to focus on things other than her career. 

But when it’s clear Lacey and Jacob have developed feelings for one another, Lacey is torn. Regardless of where the show is filmed, will she return to the city to buy her dream house? Or will she stay in Christmas Mountain and make a home with the man of her dreams?

    I enjoyed the book, but I was disappointed it didn’t continue in to a marriage.

    How come nobody makes utopian novels as great as this? This is amazing! All the characters are lovable and sweet, and the town itself feels like a paradise where it allows the reader making a second chance to be part of this along with the protagonist, much like James Cameron’s Avatar! I know I’m not into romance novels, but this is nothing like I’ve ever seen before!

    This is my voluntary review of a copy I received from Booksprout. Other than getting the job title of the female lead completely wrong, it was a great story. (The person with her job description is the location manager; her boss is either the producer or director, or the assistant to one of them.) The characters were well done; the dialogue great. The romance swoon-worthy. Both the town and it's inhabitants are charming.
