Catching Christmas, book #39


I have been wanting to read this book for a very long time.  I would see it (in the good old days!) at the bookstore and think, "I should buy that book!" but for some reason I don't.  Then I would see it on Kindle and think, "I should get that, but did I buy the book somewhere?"  So finally I broke down and got the Kindle version.  This year, now that I am done with work, I had time to read and was looking for Christmas books.  Hooray!  Finally I can read this book!  It was well worth the wait!

As a first-year law associate, Sydney Batson knows she will be updating her resume by New Year’s if she loses her current case. So when her grandmother gets inexplicably ill while she’s in court, Sydney arranges for a cab to get her to the clinic.  The last thing cab driver Finn Parrish wants is to be saddled with a wheelchair-bound old lady with dementia. But because Miss Callie reminds him of his own mother, whom he failed miserably in her last days, he can’t say no when she keeps calling him for rides. Once a successful gourmet chef, Finn’s biggest concern now is paying his rent, but half the time Callie doesn’t remember to pay him. And as she starts to feel better, she leads him on wild-goose chases to find a Christmas date for her granddaughter.  When Finn meets Sydney, he’s quite sure she’s never needed help finding a date. Does Miss Callie have an ulterior motive, or is this just a mission driven by delusions? He’s willing to do whatever he can to help fulfill Callie’s Christmas wish. He just never expected to be a vital part of it. (picture and description at Amazon)


Happy Christmas!  Enjoy this season, however it looks for you!
