This was my first time reading Rachel Dunning, I'm not sure if I'd be interested in reading her again.I just didn't like the characters.  Mitchell Langford is a 33 year old American who has had 3 failed marriages. Mitch is stranded in England for Christmas, it's unclear at the beginning as to why he is stranded or if he is truly unhappy about it.  Jacquie Conway is the sister of Mitch's business partner. She's a single mother to a seven year old, and generally the kind of heroine that I love to read. But I just could not like Jacquie, Even though in the end the author tries to makes her out to be a good mom, she just did not come off as a nice person in the beginning of the book.  In fact, I didn't like either her or Mitch so perhaps they were perfect for each other. Jacquie came off as full of herself and Mitch as uncaring, but at the end they magically couldn't live without each other. I thought Jacquie's family intervention was just completely inappropriate and I honestly didn't understand it at all. `1
