Southern Storms

Me: I don't like angsty romance novels

One day later: gives this book 5 stars. Consistency is not my friend apparently.

But LISTEN I think what really made this one better was that there was no back and forth in the relationship, it was relatively linear. There was no “let's get together we are soulmates” and then “oh no I'm going to push you away for years.”

This was really good, and the emotional aspect really worked for me. On my way to read her backlist now BRB

UGH - Kennedy and Jax have my whole heart

Falling in love under nature's Christmas lights is a magic all its own. Lise Gold brings this romance alive in Northern Lights for Hannah and Kristine. The two women could not live further apart, but under these lights they find each other. Gold focuses on the magic of nature and Christmas is an afterthought almost. Nature and its beauty is at the forefront and seriously who can compete with that? (laugh)

Gold lets love unravel naturally between Hannah and Kristine. What is just supposed to be some holiday fun ends up turning into something more for the two women. A nice holiday present to have on a vacation which brings more beauty than they both expected.

Gold is descriptive but not flowery. The romance is fun and sensual. Their journey continues in book two according to the story. So we get a definite HFN ending for the holiday. Beautiful lights and some really funny moments are what I am left with after the Northern Lights. Isn't that what the holidays are about?
