The Cowboys
of Cold Creek has been a long running
series but I actually came on board with the Christmas
Ranch tales. Each one really delightful and THE HOLIDAY
GIFT by RaeAnne Thayne was one I was eagerly anticipating.
THE HOLIDAY GIFT is the story starring Faith and Chase --
finally.
An old adage of sorts -- marry your best friend. Faith and
Chase have it seems always been good friends. Then Faith
marries their mutual friend and has two lovely children.
Life was good and then Travis dies accidentally leaving
Faith to regroup and refigure her life, future and that of
her kids. But the one person Faith knew she could rely on,
lean on was Chase. Always Chase.
Chase has been in love with Faith for much of his life.
Needless to say he would never let on. His friendship with
Travis and Faith came first even if their marriage left an
ache in his heart. A dull ache that didn't go away. Chase
had tried and now divorced he haggled with his ex-wife for
more time with their daughter. Life is complicated. Chase
has been nothing if not patient and now he is beginning to
realize that being Faith's best friend just isn't enough.
He wants more. But Faith is constantly putting up
roadblocks even to the extent of setting Chase up with
potentially dates. What's a guy to do.
Well as I said previously this is Chase and Faith's story
and it's going to take a strong determined man to get
through to an equally strong determined woman to get her
to see that they are infinitely better together as lovers
than just as friends.
The burning question is just how long will Chase wait.
THE HOLIDAY GIFT is a story filled with the tugs and pulls
of two people trying hard to get where they both need to
be. Complicated by daily life, family and children their
voyage isn't going to be an easy one. But hopefully in the
end love will rule and give these two terrific characters
the life they both deserve. One can only hope. RaeAnne
Thayne once again delivers a story that is guaranteed to
tug at your heartstrings. Remember it's the holiday
season, the time of hope and love and faith. So have
faith.
