blackhermione 's review for:
The Christmas Pact
by Penelope Ward, Vi Keeland
I was just trying to read a cute, short, Christmas romance and with this premise I thought it would be just that, it wasn't. I knew I would have to ignore certain issues with a story this short, but it was just too much.
For some reason I feel the need to defend myself so here are a couple (spoilery) reasons this was so bad for me:
The entire opening premise where he reads her emails, pulls her out on to the dance floor at the holiday party, and then books the same flight as her even though she said no to his plan would be extremely creepy and inappropriate if he wasn't "hot".
The fact that the correspondence assistant had the nerve to breach confidence and tell the love interest to "grow some balls" and "man up" and he went and actually got that horse to ride for a whole 2 seconds ... like what?
I'm officially calling it on my hunt for a great Christmas romance book and will check out the Netflix selection instead.
