Kringle

by Kimberley Koz

December 21st ~ 84:00 hours to Eve Launch After twenty years of ‘wedded bliss’ to the original Bad Boy of the Northern Hemisphere, my life is not all Sugarplum Fairies and Joy to the World. I could fill pages about my life with Kris Kringle, but I wouldn’t want to destroy your childhood delusions about Santa Claus. Don’t get me wrong. I love my wickedly charming husband. He’s a wonderful father. A steady provider, and still makes all the right moves in bed. Ohhh yah! Yet, here’s the I wanted him to look at me and wet himself in fear. I was that mad. So, what did Kris do that had me contemplating divorce with Eve Delivery just hours away? Grab some coffee and have a seat. I need to vent and this is going to take a while. ~Holly Kringle Holly Kringle has a very full plate. She is Highest Mayor of Polartown and President of Kringle Enterprises–the company that puts the ‘Merry’ in Christmas and the ‘Happy’ in Holidays. She is also the mother of teenagers and wife to Kris Kringle–the World’s Biggest Kid. When the reindeer are poisoned three days before Eve Launch, Holly adds amateur detective to her resume. With just about everyone in Polartown under suspicion, she doesn’t have time to dwell on employee problems, personal family issues, her 50thbirthday, or investigate her husband’s highly suspicious behavior. If Dancer dies, her soulmate Dasher won’t want to live without her. And like a pod of whales beaching on the shore, the remaining Famous Eight will surely follow.

I liked the idea of a story about Santa, and married life when you're middle aged. I didn't really love this book. While the story was ok the main thing I will remember about this book is that the author seems to be on an anti sugar platform. One of the main themes in the story is that sugar is a drug. The other problem is loose ends. It seems as though the author threw the ending together . It seems poised for a spinoff,one nobody wanted. We will see.
