A Wedding in December
by Sarah Morgan
Christmas settings eat your heart out! Winter snow, winter weddings, winter warmth...on and on.
In terms of the romances in this book, I was surprised to find myself most invested in Nick and Maggie's, especially as I cannot identify with any of Maggie's issues in terms of her self-esteem, or years spent prioritising children and homebuilding over anything else including her own happiness. I just felt that their respect and affection was still palpable, and I was shipping them as getting back together before I even knew they were the book's plan. Honeysuckle cottage sounded idyllic and their discussions felt fitting based on their relationship and experience together.
Rosie was sweet, and her relationship with her sister Katie juxtaposed with her fiance was such an area of growth for her that I appreciated it, and hoped she would get her HEA.
Katie and Jordan...I identified most with her ambitions, but struggled with her need to not tell anyone anything especially given her struggles. Her visit to the OH and therapist was excellent, and I have never been so happy as to find out at the end that Jordan wasn't lying to her about why he wanted to keep her in the cabin - it's very rare that someone shoot that straight in a romance, and nice to keep in character instead of just adding more angst. Despite Katie's utter inability to keep her nose out of, well, anything, her relationship with her sister is interesting, and her and Jordan had a lot of chemistry and I'm glad she chose to stick it out with him over winter. Though it is less permanent...more a Happy for Now than an HEA, it was no less sweet.
Whilst this isn't my favourite Sarah Morgan Christmas book (Snow Crystal Trilogy anyone?), it was sweet, emotional and festive. It left me with a smile on my face, a festive feeling and a desire to get on a plane and go somewhere snowy for Christmas every year.
