Evergreen Lake: Under the Mistletoe #7

by Lynessa Layne

Coming home for Christmas is a time-honored family tradition. Seeking refuge from persistent press, disgraced national news anchor Tom Snow reluctantly returns to his roots in Evergreen Lake. His biggest problem should be old friends and a bitter family. Little does Tom know, up-and-coming journalist Kamrie Kole has just caught wind of his return. Seeking to make a name for herself, Kamrie uncovers secrets the whole town has whispered about for twenty years.

[Carol Nauss · Rating 4 out of 5]

Can a chance meeting at a writing convention lead to happily ever after? You'll have to read this romantic, suspenseful book to find the answer. Along the way, you'll get drawn into an investigation by journalist Kamryn Kole involving scandal, scams and fraud. Then there is actor and writer Tom Snow who falls madly in love with Kamryn and will protect her at any cost including his life and career. The book contains some steamy love scenes with an interesting plot and satisfying ending.

So many good laughs
