I was in the mood for something Christmassy and short in between book highs and I came out with Bah, Humbug! by Heather Horrocks. This is a very short book at less than 100 pages so it's a quick read. The story is pack full of laughs as well as aww moments as any romance should be.The story is about a woman meeting a guy that she thinks is rude at first and doesn't like him but there's just something about him. That's always the way! They live next door to each other as she and her two kids just moved in. They end up getting close and of course fall head over heels for each other but there is still a bit of struggle for the two of them in this tiny little story. I loved it and the descriptions of everything was perfect, I had no problem seeing everything in my mind.The only thing I didn't really care for was the ending and it kind of made me roll my eyes a bit. If you don't want to be spoiled then you might want to just go on to another post here or somewhere else because I'm going to rant about that ending.The ending, hmm, they have only known each other a week and he proposes marriage. Okay. I get it, when you know you're in love, you're in love but really? A week and already asking to be married and everyone just goes right along with it? No one in his family even bats an eye that hey maybe that's a bit fast? I couldn't believe that was thrown in there. I can see started a relationship but, marriage?! Come on.However, I really did enjoy the book and what do you expect when you're reading a short story of chick lit right? Light, fluffy, and happy endings all around.
