Synopsis:
"To college student, Katie Brandt, ‘Home for the Holidays’ sounds like hell. When her parents separated, their holiday traditions shattered like a dropped ornament. What could be worse than celebrating Christmas with her suddenly single mom and mom’s new boyfriend?
Alex Walker, an engaged 20-year-old, dreads going home for his own reasons. He has a daunting task ahead of him and wishes he could skip the holidays altogether. So when a friend of a friend needs a ride north, Alex finds that having beautiful Katie seated by his side proves to be just the distraction he needs.
A simple ride home for Christmas turns into a nightmare when light snow rages into a full-scale blizzard. Katie and Alex find themselves stranded, and a vacant cabin becomes a haven from the storm.
Under different circumstances, time alone with Alex would be the ultimate Christmas gift, but Katie knows Alex is engaged and she must hide her growing attraction.
However, Alex harbors a secret that just might change this holiday from the worst Christmas ever, to the best."
This has to be one of the best Christmas novellas I have ever read. This story was absolutely adorable and I wanted to stay up another night just to read it all over again.
Katie and Alex are such a cute couple and I loved both of them. You could see (or rather read) the chemistry between them without having to put any glasses on. They just had this thing from the moment that they first saw each other.
There was this one part I was freaking out and then I was smiling and Angie Stanton really does mix up your feelings and you don't know what to expect next, I really liked that.
My only wish for this book was that it wasn't a novella but a full length novel so I could have gotten to know the characters a bit more. I love learning more and more about characters until they are practically my best friends.
If you are looking for something to read, especially a Christmas read I highly recommend that you pick this book up. It is sweet, short, and a light read.
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars!!

Angie Stanton never planned on writing books, she wanted to be a Rockette. However, growing up in a rural setting with her brothers' 4-H pigs as pets, dance didn't work out. Instead she became an avid daydreamer. After years of perfecting stories in her head she began to write them down and the rest is history.She loves dipping french fries in chocolate shakes, natural disaster movies and Broadway Musicals. When not writing, Angie is concocting ways to make more dreams come true, whether it be tickets to a Broadway show or convincing her family they should rent an RV and travel the country. She's still working on that one.
Angie is a proud double finalist of the 2011 National Readers Choice Awards for Love 'em or Leave 'em, as well as a finalist for the Golden Quill Awards.
