Sugar
plum fairies eat your heart out…
In
N. Jade Gray’s Tangled in Tinsel, Madison Reynolds returns to her
hometown in rural Colorado to help her sister manage the last weeks of a
difficult pregnancy—not fantasize about Ryder Sanders, the one who got
away. But how does a logical, centered loan officer forget about her high
school crush turned local architect when she bumps into him—literally and
figuratively—at every turn?
Will
these two deserving people need a gentle push from a couple of Santa’s elves,
aided and abetted by an endearing four-year-old to battle the machinations of a
determined former paramour who gives new definition to mean girls.
Our
Review: There are many
strengths to this delightful holiday story. At the top of the list is author
Gray’s talent for world building. The town of Cedar Bend is a place to come
home to, especially during a holiday synonymous with hearth, home and family.
From the local fire department’s Ugly Sweatshirt Dinner to the annual tree
lighting ceremony and local craft show which is spiked with booths filled with
the aromas of warm gingerbread cookies, tree ornaments in the shape of local
wildlife and brilliant light shows. Reading this book is like coming home again
and we thank N. Jade Gray for the gift.
On
a scale of 1-5, Tangled in Tinsel deserves a 4.
