This book is a sappy contemporary romance featuring a Christmas wedding, a jaded wedding planner, and a love triangle set in a small town. This story is as much about finding yourself as it is about finding the one who completes you. The author truly embraced her characters' past and presented it to create a unique story where the female is the one who hates Christmas. The males are both completely different but equally exciting characters. I like that author focuses on Amber even though the story involves so many others. This was a sweet Christmas holiday romance read with a very clean and wholesome story.
The prologue of this book is of a happy memory even though it is tinged with sadness. Our main characters here, sister and mom, are having a delightful Christmas with her dad, but none knew it would be the last.
Amber is a wedding planner in New York. She detests Christmas primarily because of an accident that took her father when she was young. She is close with her older sister Andrea. Her job drove a doozy in her lap with a Christmas Day wedding to plan.
Okay, this story immediately caught my attention even though it is after the holiday. I am reading this for one; the woman hates Christmas, not the guy in the story, which is refreshing. She has a valid reason for not loving the holidays. But I can't wait to see what happens when she is subjected to Christmas Town, North Carolina.
She runs into a nice guy at the Inn bar, and they enjoy talking to each other. Sam is actually the best man at the wedding she is planning. Still, they flirt happily together, not knowing who each other are. This book has a bit of a love triangle between the wedding planner and two men at the wedding party. As they progress, they all get closer, at least until the proximity forces some of them apart. But of course, the age-old big city girl can't leave it for the small-town boy, which ends on the part of the triangle.
The wedding day is finally here, and our wedding planner has done a fantastic job. She is finally liking the holidays. Unfortunately, the live triangle site just getting started; who will she choose?
I'm surprised by her choice and subsequent heartbreak and even more surprised the other guy tried as well; unfortunately, neither got the girl. However, Amber did leave Christmas Town with a lot of personal growth and career growth. I love the ending, and yay, finally, she chose the right guy.

If you are looking for a cosy, Christmas romance then this is the book for you.
There is a bit of everything, finding yourself, a live triangle, a wedding, Christmas trees, snow and the most important part gingerbread.
This is the first book I've read by this author but I look forward to reading more of their work.
