Snowed in Together in Pine Haven

Pine Haven #3

by Laura Abbott

A wanderlust and a businessman trapped together during a blizzard. What could go wrong?

Maggie has spent her life running from one adventure to the next, never quite ready to settle down. As soon as anyone gets too close, she's off to her next escape. But Pine Haven is different. For the first time in her life, she's building real relationships. And she will never let a man jeopardize that-especially not the infuriating local real estate agent.

Eric is all business, all the time. Nothing can crack his shell. Nothing but that loud-mouthed barista, Maggie.

But when their friends ask for help with some last-minute wedding details, Maggie and Eric agree to set aside their differences long enough to get the job done. The only problem is that they didn't realize the job would put them together alone in a honeymoon cabin during a blizzard.

The close quarters have their normally heated banter firing hotter than ever. The only question is, can they make it back out without getting burned?

Audiobook.

Eric and Maggie.

This was such a quick listen for me and one that I enjoyed ALOT. I dont know but there's just something about a short small town romance for me. And then the MCs who have been pining over each other. And yes they're in Pine Haven and pining over each other lol but I loved it and they were so freaking cute.

There wasn't a moment where I didn't enjoy this book. The push and pull then finally admitting feelings. The book was fantastic. I wouldn't mind hearing about what happens after but I know that although fictional, they're living their best life right now.

Overall I give this book a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5. Again, I love this book and Eric and Maggie deserves happiness with each other. They are realistic being afraid of falling for each other because they don't want to lose the friendship they've built or because they have such a tight knit friend group they don't want to ruin it and she didn't want to leave town again after finding herself so much. But no matter what they couldn't fight the feelings and then they got together and all was right in Pine Valley again. It was beautiful from beginning to end and also because of their banter which was superb.

2 stars.
So let us debrief.

(Hmm, getting cozy cozy in your soon to be married friends honeymoon cabin...not a fan.)

Was kinda disappointed because I know Ms Laura knows how to write one heck of a novella but oh well.

* Maggie kind of fell very flat and one dimensional for me and that made her so boring.

* Eric, him I actually liked but still kinda boring if I'm being honest.

The plot was cute but it was just so repetitive. It got to a point where even the banter was so mundane and meh. I genuinely didn't understand what was so hard about being together honestly, Maggie just overcomplicated things for no reason. Yes I get the whole security and being scared to commit to a relationship but they were both clearly not only into each other but ready to be together.
(Love Eric for saying he wanted to become the man she was right for)

This one was really good! I’m a sucker for forced proximity (as told by the title, snowed in together…not a spoiler lol), and this delivered hardcore. There was that in titan annoyance but banter with attraction…in my opinion the best way to start a romance book. It did read a bit like a first draft, but the chemistry was there and that’s all I care about.

I literally dissociated from life while reading this book. I blacked out and have no clue what was happening at all. It’s basically like I didn’t read the book. Mind you this took me damn near 3 weeks to read, what was going on. I actually am lost 😅

This one’s pretty cute, it plays out like a hallmark movie with the miscommunication “Can’t admit my feelings” kinda vibe

Eric and Maggie was trapped in a cabin doing some wedding business for Sophie and Ethan's wedding. Boring but also it was a short fun romance book!

I've got to say, I really wanted to like it. It was definitely cute but it felt a bit rushed and strained. Like the intimate tug-of-war was a bit misplaced or awkward at times.

[Sydney Whitkanack · Rating 3 out of 5]

It was a quick, cute read. I wouldn’t read it again. It was extremely predictable and very Hallmark-ish.
