Yes, it's October and I'm in full Christmas reading spirit already. I think Hallmark movies are starting this week. Christmas eve is about 10 weeks away. I'm in the holiday spirit and this book sure helped the mood.
You Make it Feel Like Christmas mostly takes place over the week of Christmas holidays. Maise is excited to spend holidays with family and friends. They've got all the traditional fun planned and even better her brother's husband's best friend just bought a Christmas tree farm and that's where they are all staying.
The only thing bringing Maise's Christmas spirit down is her mom who's always on her to go back to college. Her mom thinks her photography job isn't a real job even though Maise is very good at her job and her mom can't convince her she's not. Also, Maise's just discovered the guy she had a one night stand with a few months ago is her host's brother!
Maise quickly discovers her one night stand is no other than Nick King - a famous hockey player and that he had a very good excuse for leaving before she woke up that morning - his mother passed away. Maybe she's willing to give him a second look after all.
I know romantic hockey novels are a big thing right now and if you enjoy that style you will definitely like this novel. I really enjoyed the story despite not being a hockey lover. Despite the Christmas title the whole novel doesn't take place over Christmas and I think this story could be enjoyed any season.
