I completely understand Colbie's instinct to run away to avoid writer's block. I did it myself a few times when completing my PhD and it was always great to clear your brain. My writer's retreats never came with a side of true love, however, so Colbie wins on this one.

I adore Jill Shalvis's books - and to pretend otherwise would be silly. It took me a little bit to get into the Heartbreaker Bay series, but now I'm completely invested in this sprawling tribe of folks and their happily ever afters.

Not only is CHASING CHRISTMAS EVE a great addition to the series, but it is an absolutely delightful Christmas tale. Go read and enjoy.
