SKATING AT SOMERSET HOUSE by Nikki Moore

This was a fun and sweet novella.  It makes me think of a modern day "The Night Before Christmas" story, minus the Ba Ham-buging.

Holly Winterlake is having the most wonderful day on the most wonderful time of the year. Holly loves Christmas and every thing that goes with it.  

The best part (for her anyway) is getting to skate on ice again. So getting the job as Ice Marshall at London's Somerset House is a dream come true.

Noel Summerford gets grumpy around the Christmas Holidays.  Falling on his butt multiple times in the freezing snow does not help his mood.

Having promised to bring his Godson to skate on the, was not exactly his idea of fun.  But seeing the ecstatic look on his Godson's face was well worth the torture.

Things take an interesting turn when he is approached by the sexy Ice Marshall who is interested in giving his Godson some extra skating lessons, since he seems to be a natural on the ice.

Not wanting to disappoint the kid, but also having to keep a promise to his Godson's father, Noel has to decline the offer.  But that does not stop him from wanting to know more about Holly.  

Things seem to go up and down with them but when an accident on the ice, booze and a mad chocolate Labrador get involved, things get enthralling.  Find out the exciting conclusion to Skating at Somerset House.

Nikki Moore wrote a cute novella that had me going awwwwww.  Noel and Holly were meant for each other and that is just judging by their names alone, there both Christmas themed.  I don't have much to say because the book was too short for my liking, but good things, very good things happened in this book.

I always love books that involve kids, they just bring an innocence to books, which I love.  Kids and animals always do that, and this book had both, even if the animal came in at the end of the book.  Noel was all Scrudge McDuck and Holly was close to being Sponge Bobb (don't know much people who are happy all the time).

I know this book is late or early, if you think about it, but you cannot go wrong with it.


HAPPY READING!

BED OF ROSES (Book two in the Brides Quarlet) By Nora Roberts

I love flowers but not as much as Miss Emmaline Grant, she lives for them.  Emma is part owner of Vows, which is in the wedding business and Emma's part is with the flowers.  The bouquet, the table center piece, once it involves flowers, Emma does it and does it with a fairy tale quality. Growing up with a love story like her parents, Emma's head constantly romanticizes everything.  She keep looking for Mr Right and she found him in Jack. Jack Cooke is a enjoy them now and leave them before they get to close kind of guy.  His mindset encourages him into not wanting or needing a relationship knowing that they never last and people get hurt. With Emma, there was no holding back and he was constantly hesitating when she says or does something that he thinks violates his space. He constantly hurts Emma unintentionally and Emma feels as if she has to frequently hold back her feelings so as not to scare Jack off. Shit hit the fan when she couldn't take ho...

GETTING BETTER

Sorry for not updating for a while.  I have been sick for the past week and the glare from my computer screen made my eyes and head hurt more than it did, so I banned myself from my computer until I was better. It has not completely left me yet, but I am getting better and the computer screen no longer hurt my eyes.  The only thing is that I am backed up with all of my reviews.  I read a lot when I was sick, seemed like the only thing I could do.  I did not even have the energy to go to school for the first week. I'm getting better now and look forward for my new reviews and I might post more than one this week.
