Back cover: As if going home for the holidays jobless and single
wasn't bad enough, she's dragged into a holiday season full of activities
leading up to her sister's uber-romantic Christmas Eve wedding--to Starr's
ex-boyfriend. But when her brother's best friend, Waylon Emmerson, attends
their family Thanksgiving, she starts to wonder if maybe coming home for
Christmas isn't so bad after all.
As Starr finds the perfect distraction in
helping Waylon make over his late mother's Christmas shop, the most wonderful
time of the year works its magic and the spark between them grows. But with the
holidays fast approaching, Starr must decide what she wants out of life after
the gifts are unwrapped and the ornaments are put away--to go back to New York
City or to open her heart to a love that will last beyond Christmas Day?
Review: I am in
full holiday swing with a second Christmasy title this week. "You Make it
Feel Like Christmas" is a jingling, romantic, snack-sized Christmas tale -
spiced with tricky family politics and sweetened with an adorable romance. When
Waylon is invited to his best friend's family dinner, he just about falls over
when a beautiful woman opens the door - when did his buddy's little sister grow
up? He agrees to hang out over the holidays and help shield Starr from some
family unpleasantries, but the whole 'friend' deal? Yeah, that lasts all of two
seconds.
This
was a super cute Christmas story - Starr and Waylon were so sweet. I loved how
Toni Shiloh wove Biblical messages of prayer and seeking God's will into the
story. Well done!
Thank-you
