Review: A satisfying reunion romance
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 12 5, 2011
Mitchell Evans always wanted to leave his home in Texas behind and become a famous ballet dancer.  He's achieved his goal, but a bad breakup and losing a coveted role sends Mitch back home to deal with his father's estate that he's been ignoring for six months.  Driving into his home town, Mitch swerves to avoid a reindeer in the road. He's rescued by the man who crushed Mitch's heart twelve years ago.  Texas Ranger Web Eisley is as handsome as ever, and the attraction between them still burns bright and hot.  But it'll take a Christmas miracle for Mitch and Web to get a second chance at a relationship.LONE STAR features many of the romance tropes I enjoy and, as always, I can count on author Josh Lanyon to give the tried and true plot points of reunion romances his own spin.  Mitch and Web are both likeable heroes who are clearly meant to be with one another.  That being said, it surprised me that LONE STAR lacked the charm that Mr. Lanyon can usually be counted on to infuse his stories with.  LONE STAR is by no means a bad story, but it wasn't quite what I've come to expect from Mr. Lanyon.  There was also an added element concerning a reindeer only Mitch saw.  I'm not sure if it was a paranormal element, a hallucination or simply a tie-in to a Christmas gift from Web later in the story.  Still, LONE STAR is a satisfying read overall.LilyReviewed for Romance Junkies
