Description
Just call her Christmas Eve...
Eve Harmon has always enjoyed Christmas, but this year it reminds her of everything she doesn't have. Almost all her friends are married now, and that's what Eve wants, too. Love. A husband and kids of her own. But the B and B she manages, and even Whiskey Creek, the small Gold Country town where she was born and raised, suddenly seem...confining.
Eve's worried that her future will simply be a reflection of her past. There's no one in the area she could even imagine as a husband—until a handsome stranger comes to town. Eve's definitely attracted to him, and he seems to have the same reaction to her. But his darkly mysterious past could ruin Eve's happily ever after—just when it finally seems within reach. And just when she's counting on the best Christmas of her life...

The Whiskey Creek gang (last seen in When Snow Falls) reunites for this middling Christmas-themed contemporary romance. When Eve Harmon turns 35, she confronts a few unpalatable truths: she's single and childless, and has no prospect on the horizon for changing either situation. The old-fashioned girl who believes in commitment and white picket fences shocks her friends when she picks up a handsome stranger at a bar. They are even more concerned when Brent Taylor sticks around, especially since he is not telling the truth about anything. The chemistry between Eve and Brent is explosive, but Brent hurts Eve repeatedly by keeping her at a distance. Even as Eve tells herself she can't sleep with Brent again, she seeks him out and doesn't say no when he comes knocking. No simple hero, Brent has the scars to prove his complicated past. He knows Eve is too good for him, but he does little to improve himself, and watching Eve compromise her ideals, settle for his lies, and try to save him is uncomfortable.

Starred review from October 15, 2014
When Eve Harmon's tipsy 35th birthday celebration results in her taking a complete stranger home with her, she is appalled at her uncharacteristic actions but incensed when Brent Taylor seems determined to dismiss the event. In truth, Brent is Rex McCready, and he has reasons for keeping his distance--deadly reasons that could mean danger for anyone he cares about, including Eve. When Brent falls victim to Whiskey Creek's welcoming allure, his decisions about secrets, trust, and life in general become that much harder to make. VERDICT Series fans will rejoice to see Eve find her happily ever after in this engrossing holiday hit that has more than its fair share of suspense. Novak (A Matter of Grave Concern) lives in Rocklin, CA.
