It Takes the Right Reason to Change -
Ivy was sent from the city to Chimney Gorge to help promote the town, but her arrival was disastrous and the business owner she was meant to work with was a grump. Rhett was satisfied living his reclusive life on the mountain, so he wasn’t pleased with himself being in the public eye, but Ivy managed to convince him to work with her by proposing a compromise. Working together was initially awkward, but everything changed after Ivy and Rhett got stranded in his cabin and they not only had to share a bed, but they also got to spend time together getting to know each other.

Even though Ivy and Rhett agreed to maintain a professional relationship when they met, but the tension that grew whilst they were in close proximity exploded into a steamy encounter, that heightened their feelings for each other. Unfortunately, Ivy and Rhett’s happiness was short lived due his insecurities, but their pain didn’t last long as he got an unexpected offer, that gave him the chance needed to fight for the happiness they deserved.

This was an emotion-filled, lovely and steamy romance story with a wonderful cast of characters and a small town feeling, that I couldn’t stop reading once I started. If you are looking to read a festive story where magic happens on the pages, then look no further than this amazing book. I highly recommend this book to any avid romance reader looking for a heartwarming reading experience.

"Love -real love-doesn't show up only when its convenient and the schedules clear. It shows up messy. It shows up when you're working long hours and exhausted and still make time for each other.
If you are looking for a book that has the perfect balance between steamy romance, heartfelt moments and laugh out loud humor centered around a small town with Christmas as the backdrop this is the one for you. Ivy is a PR manager overflowing with happiness, Christmas spirit and witty banter who collides with Rhett in the worst way. Rhett is the total opposite a quiet rough around the edges war veteran who loved the peace and quiet. Put these two together locked up in a cabin during a winter storm and hold on because you are in for quiet the ride. The chemistry is obvious to everyone in town except for them but they will soon see just how much chemistry they do have. But Ivy gets a huge promotion which will take her back home and away from the small town. Will Rhett be able to see past the peace and quiet or will he break her heart?
I truly loved how Rhett completely opened up to her and told her about his past. It took a lot for him to do that. I truly felt that was written so incredible well and was heartfelt and sweet.
Logan did an amazing job with this storyline and the characters. Definitely one I would gladly reread.

RHETT AND IVY (EX-SOLDIER AND PR GURU)

I received this book for free and am giving my honest and voluntary review.

This story relates how a reclusive ex-soldier lives with his war demons and how a PR woman enters his life and turns it around. It’s the boy meets girl, boy loses girl, and boy wins girl back scenario with an introduction to the Maddox Security books. This is of course, a grumpy/sunshine story.

Ivy and Rhett's story was so good. She is brought in to help save the Christmas festival. He wants nothing to do with it but knows it's needed. Logan Chance does a great job writing his characters, their stories, and their emotions that pull you in and make you feel what they feel. I loved the connection and chemistry Ivy and Rhett have/develop.

Ivy and Rhett have a sweet and steamy Christmas romcom read, and plenty of your most loved tropes (think forced proximity, snow storm, holiday, grumpy/sunshine, and fun banter for starters). A heartwarming read to get you in the sprit of the season.

Loved It!!! This was a fast paced, fun read, with great characters and just in time for the holidays. Ivy and Rhett could have met on better terms but they still get their happy ending. Logan doesn’t disappoint with this one. Definitely a must read

Ivy is in Chimney Gorge to bring more attention to the Snowflake Jubilee. Rhett runs Jingle Bell Rides. Cute story of Christmas meets grumpy. Ivy and Rhett get caught in a blizzard together. Will close proximity work its magic? You will laugh and cry throughout this story! Great read!

Ivy is a PR person, she's been sent to the village to promote their Christmas festival when the sponsor appears to be pulling out. She meets Rhett who is a bit grumpy and runs, amongst other things, the sleigh rides, she immediately slips and breaks a runner!
They're attracted to each other but she's concentrating on her job as she's hoping for a promotion and he won't let his walls down!

An entertaining Christmas read from Logan.
