In Seeking Christmas we once again return to the seaside life in the small town of Ocean Mist, but instead of it being the sunny summer, this story takes place a few days before Christmas.Our main character is Courtney, who as the oldest has basically assumed the role of watching out for her mother and younger siblings. Nine years ago her father left them and since that time they had all been struggling to rebuild their lives.As with any child whose father has left, Courtney and her siblings have spent a majority of that time trying to figure out why he left and while until recently he wanted nothing to do with them. They have always known that things between their parents have long been shaken; the desire to know never goes away.After a failed visit by one of the siblings a few months prior, who returned home never to be the same again, Courtney has been reluctant to give into her father’s persistent demands that she come to visit him. Will Courtney take the chance to have her questions answered? Or will she lock away her hurt and anger and harbor it throughout her days. This could be the Christmas that makes all the difference if she can just open her heart.While this is just a short story and can be easily read in a short amount of time it is an enjoyable tale set in the always fun to visit town of Ocean Mist. Brenda has once again done a good job of writing another young adult tale dealing with teenage problems that are so common in today’s world.Product Pros: Renders well in Kindle format, editing is well done.Product Cons: None that I could findProduct Summary: If you enjoy easy to read, young adult books you will most likely enjoy this book.
