Review

This book, Holly Lane, is Book Four in the Destiny series.

The small town of Destiny sounds like a great place to live. In this story, the heroine, Sue Ann recently divorced her husband and faces her first Christmas alone. They share a child and thus, must communicate with each other about their daughter. Living in a small town, the heroine is unable to escape her husband and his love. She has a difficult time and decides to rent a cabin out by Bear Lake for some peace.

The heroine arrives at the cabin and writes out her Christmas cards and drinks some wine. Before long, a man arrives at the cabin. It seems her former husband’s best friend, Adam, has the key to the same cabin due to a mix-up at the office. There are, of course, no other cabins available and the hero and heroine must spend the night at the same cabin. They end up in each other’s arms and as a result, life becomes more complicated once they leave the sanctuary of the cabin.

I enjoyed the small town feel of the story and the wit of the characters. However, I didn’t enjoy the parts dealing with the divorce of the heroine. This may just be a personal preference as I work in the legal field but some of the bits regarding divorce matters seemed unrealistic. But as I said, these were just some details I picked on as I am familiar with divorce processes and readers who don’t have a legal background will be able to enjoy the book without being too concerned. I thought the heroine and hero’s interaction with each other as well as the other characters from the town, was engaging.
