The Christmas Catch (Holiday Brides Series Book 1)

Book Description

Sometimes the best gifts are unexpected...
  
Since the death of her military husband two years ago, single mom Christine White has struggled to get by. By throwing herself into her work as a Chicago copywriter, she's managed to keep food on the table but has gradually lost sight of what really matters, like building a bond with her four-year-old son. When Christine's best friend insists she spend Christmas in Vermont so she can get her life in order, Christine initially resists. Little does she know she's in for a memorable holiday that will reignite her faith and reawaken her heart.

Bachelor professor John Steadman has given up on finding the right one. Spending time with his friends while keeping up with his job seems satisfying enough. Then one day close to Christmas, a beautiful woman from Chicago nearly runs him off the road during a snowstorm. What's more, she's got a kid in her car. It's only natural that John and his trusty golden retriever want to help drag them out of a ditch and steer them toward their destination. What John doesn't expect is that soon he'll be hoping Christine and her son will be staying in Vermont - for more than just a little while.

Book Review 

Christine is so busy trying to provide for her son Tyler, that she almost begins to disconnect from him. Her boss and currently only friend gifts her a holiday in the form of house sitting a cabin in another city. It seems like a good idea for her to recharge her batteries and Christine takes up the offer. On the way the sudden snow storm almost leaves them stranded when the vehicle skids off road. That's when John rescues them and becomes their "guardian angel".

The chance meeting would have been easy for her to forget, but then they bump into each other again at the market and talk some more. They discover they are from the same college and although both feel the attraction, they decide that this is not the time in their lives that they need to bring in the complication of a love interest. Fate of course, has other plans. The characters are lovable and the story beautifully narrated. By the end you are rooting for them to get together already! Nice, fun read.
