Second in the Minnesota Christmas series, Heidi Cullinan presents readers with Arthur Anderson, a sweet thirty- nine year old looking for love. When his roommate and lover gets angry with him because he wants more than just the fling they've been having, he makes Arthur choose -- become more serious about their relationship or he leaves. When Arthur can't come to grips with it, it leaves his lover with no choice but to leave him and this is where Arthur's mother steps in, trying to play matchmaker with all the single gay guys in their town. Since it's Christmas, Arthur cannot seem to escape his mother's reach so when he is forced to take part in the sleigh ride fundraiser, it puts him in near proximity to Gabriel Higgins, the sweet and smart librarian.

Heidi Cullinan puts two opposites together and somehow makes them work together. Neither one of them is thrilled with the idea of being together during the holidays, but somehow their non-dates turn into real dates and their friendship becomes more than that.

SLEIGH RIDE isn't very long, but this book manages to put you in a good mood no matter what. I think it's because the author just writes some really sweet characters that you cannot help but love. Cullinan infuses the story with holiday cheer, charismatic characters and a whole load of charm. What else could you want from a holiday romance?

SUMMARY

The way to a man’s heart is on a sleigh.

Minnesota Christmas, Book 2

Arthur Anderson doesn’t want anything to do with love and romance, and he certainly doesn’t want to play Santa in his mother’s library fundraising scheme. He knows full well what she really wants is to hook him up with the town’s lanky, prissy librarian.

It’s clear Gabriel Higgins doesn’t want him, either—as a Santa, as a boyfriend, as anyone at all. But when Arthur’s efforts to wiggle out of the fundraiser lead to getting to know the man behind the storytime idol, he can’t help but be charmed. The least he can do is be neighborly and help Gabriel find a few local friends.

As their fiery arguments strike hotter sparks, two men who insist they don’t date wind up doing an awful lot of dating. And it looks like the sleigh they both tried not to board could send them jingling all the way to happily ever after.

Warning: Contains a feisty librarian, a boorish bear, small town politics, deer sausage, and a boy who wants a doll.
