Review: Quick, Fun Holiday Read
Rating: 4 out of 5

This was a fun, wintery read. Technically, it's a holiday story, but it's not overrun with Santas and elves and family get-togethers, which was a welcome change. All of the holiday books start to fade together sometimes.Lexie is spunky, spirited, and severely held back by those around her, especially her twin brother (who I did not really like...). She is klutzy and tends to act without thinking and has terrible luck sometimes, but she's ultimately lovable. I was so happy when he backbone finally appeared and she let everyone know just what she thought about how they were treating her.Then we have Fletcher. He was sweet, but ultimately SUCH a beta hero that he just frustrated me. I don't usually have much of an issue with betas, but he took it to the next level. He was so boring and blah at times that he drove me insane. He was more awkward and shy and kinda sad than any other hero I've ever read. When he finally started taking things into his own hands, I cheered for him.The story itself is fun. It's a search-and-rescue story and it's a quick one, but very entertaining. I liked the characters and I liked the chemistry between them. I hope the author has more where this came from.
