A Christmas In The Alps

 

 I have read several books by Melody Carlson and I've come to look forward to her Christmas novels.  Yes, I said Christmas.  I know it's only September, but what other way to end summer and go into the fall season than with a holiday book. The nights have even been a bit chilly here this week which make it perfect for a cup of coffee a blanket and a book.  

I always consider this Author's books what I like to call "easy reads".  They are usually kind of light hearted and just enjoyable.  This one continued in that category for me.  

Simone has had a rough year (relatable right). After a time of heartache and loss she discovers a letter from her French grandmother who has now passed away.  The letter informs Simone of a treasure that she is heir to and how she needs to travel to Paris in order to retrieve it.  Simone thinks that her grandmother must have not been in her right mind when she wrote the letter and doesn't want to go.  Her fear of flying doesn't help, but with the persuasion of a friend she heads to the French Alps.

During her flight she meets the charming Kyle Larsson and one of my favorite parts is when he helps her through a panic attack on the flight. When they land they part ways, but soon find themselves reunited. As she is trying to uncover the treasure that her grandmother spoke of is it possible she may uncover a romance between her and Kyle?

There were a few slow moments to the book, but overall an enjoyable read.  Thanks to Revell for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
