CHRISTMAS AT THE CHALET by
Anita Hughes is a contemporary romance novel that takes place during
the holiday season. The breathtaking snowy location of St. Moritz
makes a romantic backdrop for a steamy love story full of drama and
kisses hot enough to melt the snow! Hughes has created a cast of
characters that are relatable and dreamy. A setting that will have you
feeling the cool snow: close your eyes and picture the gorgeous people
or breathtaking scenery. The snowflakes, the festive holiday lights,
yards and yards of tulle, will make readers most certainly fall in love
with the idea that fairy tales do come true. That is why we love to read
a holiday romance. CHRISTMAS AT THE CHALET
transported me to a magical world full of romance and intrigue. A world
of beautiful wedding dresses and charming people who live an upper-
class lifestyle. The romance does not stop at one love story; there are
several love stories meshed together within the pages of the
remarkable romance. A lovely story of following your heart and not your
head, trusting yourself with both your career and your love life. The characters are well-developed and the tension they share take the
reader of a steamy story of love and a few surprises along the way.
While the storyline is a little predictable and you know that they will end
up together in the end, CHRISTMAS AT
THE CHALET is an amazing romantic escape with vivid flashbacks,
and it doesn't even need to be Christmas time to enjoy it.
SUMMARY
A delicious love story about a bridal designer showing
her new collection in the Alps during the magical week of
Christmas where hijinx of the heart
ensue.
It's the day after Christmas, and
Felicity Grant is at a gorgeous ski chalet in St. Moritz for
the biggest fashion show of her career. Felicity is a rising
star on the bridal design scene, and this is her best
collection yet. But when her boyfriend gives her a spa day
instead of a diamond ring for Christmas, she has to face the
possibility that she may never walk down the aisle in one of
her own stunning designs. And then there's Nell, the
top model headlining Felicity's show. Nell is planning her
dream wedding to her wonderful fiance with one catch: her
divorced parents can't stand each other and threaten to
no-show if the other is there. Add to that Felicity's
race against the clock to create a special gown for a
prestigious bridal salon, and what both girls need is a
Christmas miracle. What better place to find one than in the
Swiss Alps with its dark forests and sparkling
vistas? But for Felicity it's hard to recognize a
miracle even when it's right in front of her, and for Nell
one miracle might not be enough to fix the past. Can dreams
really come true or is that the stuff of Swiss
fairytales? Anita Hughes's Christmas at the
Chalet is full of romance, gorgeous gowns, and the
stunning scenery of the Swiss Alps. It's about love and
forgiveness, and creating one's own miracles during the most
festive time of year.
