Chris and Tammy's story was absolutely wonderful. Everyone else's reviews are spot on. He's broody, she's not really thinking she fits in. Then she thinks she learns about Ellie and Toby. (Not really what she thinks.) But, she has trouble with knowing what she thinks she know. On the road trip with Chris, she tries to tell him, but he doesn't want to know. They have some very intimate moments but have been derailed because the only condom is no longer where Chris put it (in Toby's shoe that Tammy borrowed and then flung in a tree back at the old campsite).  Believe me, the angst was truly something. Finally they reach the end of the road, Chris pulls up to a 5 star resort teasing Tammy that he thinks he'll be able to get a massage here after the long trip. Tammy says no way. They go in and Chris asks at the desk if he can get one. The clerks says only for paying guests. Tammy feels vindicated. but lo and behold, Chris pulls out a piece of paper and says that the reservation was made by Sean Murray. Tammy's jaw drops. She kind of squeals to find out that they will be staying here after all. The rooms are divided up, but Tammy has a problem with Ellie staying in the same suite as she is. She asks Chris to move her and he does. As they are dressing for the party, Ellie fixes Tammy's make-up and Tammy blasts her about her "secret". Ellie is very upset and Tammy doesn't think she'll be able to enjoy the party. The men have all worn suits for the New Year's Eve they are surprised by being let up to a roof top just for them. They get a prime viewing and listening place to watch the festivities. When Toby gets down on one knee in front of Tess, Tammy is super surprised. Everyone thought they were having trouble but Toby was quiet because he was scared that she would say no. Tammy is crying, Tammy says yes. Then Tammy realizes that Ellie wasn't causing trouble. And she goes to find her and ask her forgiveness. Ellie tells her why she was talking with Toby and Tammy is surprised by her admission. All in all, it was a wonderful read. I can't wait for more.
