Dashing Through the Snow, book #43

Merry Christmas!  Today I had the *distinct* pleasure of reading this entire book ~ in one day!  My day started a little rough, a lingering migraine from yesterday (ugh!) but THANK THE GOOD LORD BABY JESUS it finally went away and I was able to enjoy the day with my sweet crazy family.  Since I have three teenagers they literally didn't wake up and come downstairs until after 10:00, so I had a lot of time this morning to myself.  [I was up at 5:30 with the migraine and couldn't go back to sleep ... ]  Among other things like emptying the dishwasher, setting the Christmas Breakfast Table, catching up on my Christmas Advent Scripture Writing I started on this book.  I had already read the first chapter in one of my other Debbie Macomber Christmas books so I was a little hooked.

Again, like reading a Hallmark movie [Surprise!  It is one!]  but loved it none the less.


Ashley Davison, a graduate student in California, desperately wants to spend the holidays with her family in Seattle. Dashiell Sutherland, a former army intelligence officer, has a job interview in Seattle and must arrive by December 23. Though frantic to book a last-minute flight out of San Francisco, both are out of luck: Every flight is full, and there’s only one rental car available. Ashley and Dash reluctantly decide to share the car, but neither anticipates the wild ride ahead.  At first they drive in silence, but forced into close quarters Ashley and Dash can’t help but open up. Not only do they find they have a lot in common, but there’s even a spark of romance in the air. Their feelings catch them off guard—never before has either been so excited about a first meeting. But the two are in for more twists and turns along the way as they rescue a lost puppy, run into petty thieves, and even get caught up in a case of mistaken identity. Though Ashley and Dash may never reach Seattle in time for Christmas, the season is still full of surprises—and their greatest wishes may yet come true. (picture and description at Amazon)

I have one more Christmas book up my sleeve before I head back for regular books ... can you guess the author?  :)

Merry Christmas!
