A Sleighride Kiss by Jen Geigle Johnson, New Release!
Book Summary:
A man she disdains and a man she loves. What happens when she finds out they’re the same person?
Odette Goodson lives with her grandmother in the beautiful Cheshire County. This Christmas she wishes for caroling, snow, sleigh rides, plum pudding, and a lit yule log, with friends and neighbors all around. Her matchmaking grandmother wishes for her to marry the Marquis of Wilmington. She’s heard only unflattering things about him. To her grandmother's consternation, Mr. Wardly shows up on a country lane, a man who seems to be everything the Marquis is not.
Henry Wardly, the Marquis of Wilmington, arrives from the East Indies in Cheshire County six months after his mother’s funeral. Mourning her loss, with a new shipping line at stake, and his own estate to salvage, responsibilities in Cheshire county frustrate him and slow his progress. But he cannot help but be jolly at Christmas time particularly after he runs into the lovely Miss Odette Goodson. Things grow complicated when she confuses him for a gentleman farmer and has shown nothing but disdain for the heretofore unknown Marquis.
Grandmother Amelie Laurent Goodson will work her matchmaking magic, but will it be enough to overcome the strong prejudice in Odette’s preconceived notions or the immediacy of Henry’s needs to be in London?
My Review:
Odette and Henry’s story is one for the ages. I loved the magical setting of snowfallen Cheshire during Christmas. The struggle that Odette faced with the marquess and Mr. Wardlow, it kept me page turning! When and how would she figure out what was actually going on? Odette’s grandmother was a great supporting character that I loved. Everyone should have a grandmother who loves like Odette’s grandmother loved her. I honestly wish there was another book because I could have kept reading on it was so good! If you want a story that puts you in the holiday spirit and has romance, A Sleighride Kiss is just the book for you! I received a copy of this book for free; all thoughts and opinions are my own.
Happy Reading!!!
