Romance Holiday
The greatest enemy to a public figure seems to be the media.
We all know stories about the invasive techniques of the
paparazzi. What they will do to get that photo, well the
tales are legendary and at times tragic. News writers,
journalists are perhaps just as guilty in their search for
that story, the one that could catapult their career.
SNOWBOUND WITH AN HEIRESS by Jennifer Faye centers on trust
issues. Not easy for someone to develop relationships when
they are sometimes shrouded by greed. Not easy to rely on
your instinct when in the past it has failed you. People are
only human and their failures are somewhat expected even
though at times unforgivable. It is the ability to forgive
that can open the door to something special. In SNOWBOUND
WITH AN HEIRESS Jennifer Faye faces that challenge and meets
it with her astounding use of dialog, care and wit. Serena Mae Winston was enjoying the quiet seclusion in the
snowy mountains of the Alps. Her puppy Gizmo loved roaming
around this vast area and Serena was fast becoming attached
to him. Another surprising change in her already spinning
out of control life. The last thing she expected was having
to rescue a newsman from certain danger after his car
swerved to avoid hitting her precious Gizmo. But life is full of unforeseen circumstances and the irony
of this one doesn't miss Serena's mind. Questions abound
as to what Jackson Bennett is doing up there, was he looking
for her and if not will he recognize her. Serena had changed
her hair color and certainly wasn't made up like the
actress she was. And she quickly decided to become just
plain Mae to this man who was not welcome to her little
secret holiday cabin in the Alps. Mae is a deeply caring person and it is her heart that was
directing the care and consideration she offered to Jackson.
It was certain to take time in this snow for rescue workers
to come to care for Jackson which meant she had no choice
but to allow this newsman into her cabin, her secluded
sanctuary, her life. Jackson it seems doesn't really have much of a personal
life. But to Jackson this Mae was becoming his own personal
snow angel. To him she was the most beautiful woman he'd
ever seen. But there was something almost familiar about
this stranger. And unfortunately for Mae his curiosity was
whet. An American in Austria, well there could be a story there.
No card holding journalist could resist a story. A story
that could certainly eclipse the human nature holiday angle
he had been set on. So let the games begin. Mae working tirelessly to protect
her secret identity. Jackson working equally hard trying to
get the story about what Mae was doing holed up in her comfy
but secluded cabin. She was tough, interesting, caring and
gorgeous. What's a man to do? Might as well make his time
valuable. Jennifer Faye gives us a great give and take escapade in
SNOWBOUND WITH AN HEIRESS. Full of laughs and amazing dialog
between two strong, driven characters. The entire story from
beginning to end revolves around these two fabulous
characters and of course let us not forget the puppy's
role. SNOWBOUND WITH AN HEIRESS is a delight to read and
still another winner from Jennifer Faye. Comedic romance at
its best.
SUMMARY
Stranded in the
snow—together!
Heiress Serena
Winston has gone off the grid for the holidays! She's
staying in a remote cabin in the Alps, looking to get away
from it all…
Since losing his wife, Christmas
isn't the same for TV presenter Jackson Bennett. He goes
where the work takes him, this time to Austria. But when an
American beauty runs him off the road in a blizzard and a
storm leaves them stranded, it seems like a disaster. Until
their time alone turns into an unexpected Christmas to remember!
