New Release: Tangled Up in Christmas by Lisa Renee Jones + Review!





I might be a country girl from the same small town of Sweetwater, Texas, as horse wrangler Roarke Frost, the girl next door who knows him like few know him, but I didn't know enough to save my heart.


He's the reason why I left Sweetwater behind.

But now fate proves she loves a wicked twist and sends me back to Sweetwater to pull together a Christmas festival—and I run smack into the man again, quite literally. His body is pressed to mine, his hands on my arms, and I'm melting like chocolate in the sizzling Texas sunshine. And I run.

I know it’s not exactly respectable, but it works, just not for long. No matter how much I try to get tangled up in Christmas, I end up tangled up in Roarke instead—and the man has me feeling the heat of our attraction and the warmth of our past friendship. He feels like Mr. Right, but history says he’s Mr. Wrong.

But if he wants a second chance, Roarke Frost is going to have to work for it. He’ll need to prove to me that this holiday is a season of new beginnings, the kind that last forever.

REVIEW:

4 stars
****


Aww, this was a really sweet book. Tangled Up in Christmas is book two in the Texas Heat series. I enjoyed book one, but didn't totally love it. I liked this book much better. This book is Hannah and Rourke's story. Hannah and Rourke grew up together in their small Texas town, Sweetwater. They were friends and, when they got older, that grew into love one summer and an engagement. But it all ended quickly after some family drama and a misunderstanding. Hannah left town and was gone for six years, but now she is back in Texas. Everything has changed. Rourke is now a veterinarian and a Youtube star, the Horse Wrangler, in their small hometown. Hannah is starting her own business as an event planner in Dallas. She is surprised when her first big job brings her back to Sweetwater and back to Rourke. The two of them still have strong feelings for each other and a lot of issues to work out between them, but they can see that they are meant to be together.

I really liked Hannah and Rourke together. Theirs' was a good second chance love story. They had great chemistry and were best friends. This book was the perfect length and amount of angst. The story and writing were very good. I also liked the horses and all the animals included.

Overall, I really enjoyed Hannah and Rourke's journey back to each other. Tangled Up in Christmas is a sexy and sweet small town romance. I still think this series feels very different that anything Lisa Renee Jones has written before, but I enjoyed it anyway. I look forward to more from Ms. Jones in the future.

Bonus book: Santa, Baby

There was a bonus book included in the last 43% of Tangled Up in Christmas. Santa, Baby is a Cinderella-like story between a millionaire businessman and a reserved book store owner. I found it to be a cute, steamy, sweet and sexy read. There was a little added angst from an FBI investigation too. This was a fun bonus story.
