'Tis the Damn Season
by Kimi Freeman
'Tis the Damn Season feels like a book that would be enjoyed by fans of Jennifer Peel. It's a cute story that takes place on a current timeline over the span of a few months, while every other chapter, you travel 5-7 years into the past. It's nice to have the accompanying glimpses into the past so you can see the character progression for both Aspen and Rome, from age 17-approx 24.
I did feel that this was a tad bit too centered around Aspen being famous (it's mentioned a lot!!), and of all the "scandals" that seem to keep involving her/dragging her into them through no fault of her own. It just seemed like Aspen was on the defensive the entire time, but never really fought back against anything that was happening until the very last minute.
*Synopsis- Aspen is a bit of an outcast in high school. She's shy and is tormented by her peers, until she meets and falls for high school football player, Roman. Fast forward six years into the future every other chapter, and you'll see that Aspen has left her small Pennsylvania town for the chance at stardom in Los Angeles. She had been pursuing her acting and singing dreams, until being falsely accused of trying to sleep with her best friend/roommate's boyfriend. Feeling it's best for her career to take a bit of a hiatus from the spotlight, Aspen takes an extended visit to see her family back in PA, where she immediately reunites with her former boyfriend Roman (Rome). These two never got over one another. Aspen's father asks the two of them if they'd be willing to co-direct the annual Christmas play at church, to which they agree. Will this finally bring them together again for good, or will scandal after scandal in the press tear them right back apart?
