Goodreads: Ranch manager Annie McCade thought her twin niece and nephew could join her at the Angel View Ranch for Christmas with her absent employer being none the wiser. But when the ranch's owner, Tate Sheridan, shows up out of the blue, Annie's plans are upended. Soon she finds herself helping Tate make a Christmas to remember for his grieving and fractured extended family.
Kritters Thoughts: Annie McCade is back on the property that she knew very well as a kid and is now the manager and during this holiday season she has custody of her twin niece and nephew as their mom passed away suddenly and her brother is in jail. She is surprised when Tate the grandson of the late ranch owner ends up on property and announces that the whole family will be in town for the holidays and they will turn her world upside down.
RaeAnne Thayne does romance so well. I love when she does a stand alone and when the story feels so full within the pages of the one book. Not only were Annie and Tate great characters to enjoy in this one, but the secondary characters were fantastic two and some had substantial storylines that I loved following. There was another couple (no spoilers) that I loved seeing quietly fall in love just in the background of Annie and Tate's story. I also love a romance where the characters have some previous history then what is in the book, so it doesn't feel like instalove and instead it can feel like a REALLY slow burn!
RaeAnne Thayne continues to be a romance writer that I love and I extra loved cuddling up with this one this holiday season with the sleigh rides and snow storms!
Rating: definitely a good read, but can't read two in a row
