A cute and funny interpretation of "He said, she said,"White Christmasfollows Hal Benson and Lizzie Foster, two weather forecasters from two competing television stations. Lizzie is a scientist, with a degree in Metrology to boot; Hal is an actor, and he went to acting school; Lizzie is serious and presents weather with graphs and scientific terms while Hal presents weather with a casual tone just telling people, "it's going to be a wet day, and bring your umbrellas".A classic case of "opposites attract" with the twist of "he said, she said" makes "White Christmas" a very enjoyable Christmas read (actually whole year round, if you ask my opinion). This is a novella, yet author Emma Lee-Porter was able to flesh out the characters to be three-dimensional. I love the dialogue between Hal and Lizzie.This book is rated PG because of the use an adult language (used only ONCE actually). There are no sex scenes.
