Hott Synopsis:

amazon Goodreads
Eliza Hayward and her daughter Maddie may be down but don’t count them out! Sure so Eliza’s new job may have gone up in smoke – literally. Yes, that means no income or housing since she’s a live-in hotel manager. So, maybe they no longer have health insurance for her daughter’s chronic Cardiomyopathy. It’ll be fine! Eliza’s eternal optimism will keep them going even if it is just weeks before Christmas.

But even Eliza’s optimism flails when the man indirectly responsible for her husbands’s death, Aidan Caine, hits her with his car. He’s trying to take care of her while she’s trying to be angry with him for ruining her life. If only things were so simple…

Hott Review:

I LOVED Snow Angel Cove!

What I liked: It is the perfect Christmas romance! The characters and plot are perfect and though it VERY loosely reminds me of my favorite Christmas move, Borrowed Hearts, it’s SO MUCH BETTER! This is a the first novel in a new set by RaeAnne Thayne & you’re going to want to add it to your shelf!!

What I didn’t like: The only thing I didn’t like about this book was that while reading it I realized that I missed a book from RaeAnne Thayne’s last series that features Aidan Caine’s family in Hope’s Crossing and that I’m going to have to wait for the next one in this series!!

Author Bio:

I’m not one of those people who knew from birth she was destined to become a writer. I always loved to read and throughout my childhood I could usually be found with a book in my hands. To the disgust of my friends, I even enjoyed creative writing assignments that made them all groan. But I had other dreams besides writing. I wanted to be an actress or a teacher or a lawyer.

Life took a different turn for me, though, when my mother made me take a journalism elective in high school (thanks, Mom!). I knew the first day that this was where I belonged.

After I graduated from college in journalism, I took a job at the local daily newspaper and I reveled in the challenge and the diversity of it. One day I could be interviewing the latest country music star, the next day I was writing about local motorcycle gangs or interviewing an award-winning scientist.

Through it all — through the natural progression of my career from reporter to editor — I wrote stories in my head. Not just any stories, either, but romances, the kind of books I have devoured since junior high school, with tales about real people going through the trials and tribulations of life until they find deep and lasting love.

I had no idea how to put these people on paper, but knew I had to try — their stories were too compelling for me to ignore. I sold my first book in 1995 and now, more than 30 books later, I’ve come to love everything about writing, from the click of the computer keys under my fingers to the “that’s-it!” feeling I get when a story is flowing.

I write full-time now (well, as full-time as I can manage juggling my kids!) amid the raw beauty of the northern Utah mountains.

Even though I might not have dreamed of being a writer when I was younger, now I simply can’t imagine my life any other way.

I love to hear from readers. You can reach me at: author's website twitter facebook

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!

    UGH! I have yet to read a book from her! Her books are on my TBR list and I even own a few but just haven’t gotten to them yet!

    How was your Thanksgiving babe? I hope it was fabulous!
    After the holidays (again) we will have to start thinking about getting together!
