Synopsis:
Event planner at the Bar V5 Dude Ranch, Meg Redstone is dreaming of a white Christmas with twinkling lights, sparkly decorations and strategically placed mistletoe. She loves making dreams come true for others, whether planning a holiday wedding or giving her young daughter the best Christmas ever.
Ranch foreman Tyler Murphy loves the holidays, but his newest employee has taken over his barn with her over-the-top decorations. He admires Meg’s desire to give her daughter the perfect Christmas while planning a winter wonderland wedding, but he wants to show her that a Montana Christmas is more than glitter and lights.
After raising his younger sister, an instant family is not on Ty's Christmas wish list. But he finds himself falling hard for the single mom and her little girl. Meg, however, is not interested in a romance with a cowboy like Ty, or any man. Getting her under the mistletoe is going to take a Christmas miracle . . . or a little help from Santa.
My Review: 4.5 Stars
At the young age of 18, Ty lost both of his parents in an accident and became the legal guardian to his little sister, Rachel. Yes he had to give up so much to take care of and raise her, but he wouldn't change it for the world. However, he does feel that he has already done the parent thing and is not interested in doing it again. Sure he wants to get married... someday. But whoever he marries needs to be on the same page as he is... no kids.
Enter in Bar V5 Ranch's newest employee, Meg, and her adorable daughter, Brooklyn. Being a single parent was never in Meg's plans. But the moment her husband finds out she's pregnant he files for divorce and gives up all parental rights to their daughter. Brooklyn is Meg's life now. She will do anything and everything for her daughter. Sure she would like to date again and maybe even marry... someday. But right now she refuses to do anything that would break her daughter's heart.
From the moment Ty walks in to see his barn chock-full of Christmas decorations and a sleeping Brooklyn curled up in his office, something in him slowly starts to soften. The same thing starts to happen to Meg when she sees how sweet Ty is with her daughter.
But nothing can happen between them. Friends. They can only be friends. Who cares that the kisses they share are the best either of them have ever had. Something more just isn't written in the stars for either of them.
Or is it?
Never underestimate the Christmas magic at Bar V5 Ranch. What's meant to be, will be. And no matter how hard they fight against it or how much they try to talk themselves out of it, a happily ever after IS written in the stars for them. All they have to do is open their hearts and believe.
This series is so much fun! I'm glad I decided to add it to my Christmas Swoon Fest list! Each book has just the right amount of romance, swooning and Christmas! It's definitely helping me get in the Christmas spirit! :)
I am so glad that I decided to take a chance on Ms. McClone. Her books are the perfect getaway! I can't wait to read more by her!
I know I say this a lot but I am seriously in love with this casting! *dreamy sigh*
Thanks so much :)
