I received a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.This is a sweet romance involving an established couple.  Sean and Rusty have been together since high school.  They are originally from New Orleans and currently live in Boston.  It is Christmas time and they are going back to New Orleans to visit Rusty’s family.  Rusty is extremely excited to go back for Christmas but Sean, who dislikes the holiday, is struggling with the prospect of going home.As stated earlier, this story is about an already established couple and it is the 4th book in the series.  You really do not need to read the other books to know what is going on, but it would give you more insight into the characters.Sean obviously has had a troubled past.  Through the story you gathered his father was abusive and his mother stood by and allowed it to happened.  Sean actually went to live with Rusty in high school.  To this day he still struggles to let people in and show him warmth.  Though Rusty’s family looks at Sean as one of them, Sean still sees himself as an outsider.Rusty has been with Sean for a long time.  He gave up a job he enjoyed and moved away from his family just to stay by Sean’s side.  He will do anything to ease Sean’s suffering, but he will not give up the opportunity to spend Christmas with his family.  He needs this trip more than easing Sean’s nerves.During this trip Sean will confront his problems and Rust will acknowledge where his true home is.  Overall it is a sweet story, but I wished it was a more complete story.  I feel like the reader just gets a glimpse of a particular Christmas these two characters shared, nothing more.  Would I read more about these two….yes I probably would.
