SYNOPSIS:
Colton Dawson is miserable this holiday season. Those he’d loved the most are no longer in his life. With one disappointment after another, how can he possibly get into the Christmas spirit? Maybe a change of scenery—a new place to put down roots—is just what he needs for a second chance to find some happiness.
Winterbourne Vale is only too happy to help his much-loved aunt and uncle run their café in Canada while on his short December break—even if it means leaving his home in the United Kingdom. After a defeated-looking Colton walks into the café, Winter is determined to lift his spirits.
Can Colton and Winter’s Christmas happiness continue long after the gifts are unwrapped and the decorations are stowed away?
Walking in a Winter Wonderland is holiday treat filled with special ornaments and glistening snow, hot tea and cold-weather kisses, along with some sexy shenanigans and plenty of holiday cheer.
I absolutely loved this story!
When an author writes a novella, one must realize that it’s simply a snapshot glimpse into the characters’ lives. Walking in a Winter Wonderland is just that—an adorably sexy-sweet story about finding love in a storybook village, perhaps with the help of a little Christmas magic.
Colton Dawson is having a rough time between having lost his gran and a breakup with his ex calling him boring … Colton boring?? No. Ho. Ho.
This little mischievous elf has a heart of gold, tricks up his sleeve, and a bag full of, ahem, Christmas toys just waiting to be shared with someone worthy of his love … and peppermint bark.
Enter Winterbourne Vale. Is this not the most perfect holiday name? Brilliant really! Winter has arrived. Okay, what I’m really dying to say is “Winter is coming!” Anyway, Winter lives in England but is visiting to help out his aunt and uncle with their café. He has a huge heart and truly is the nicest guy. Winter also is scrumptiously rugged and lumberjack-like with his plaid flannels grabbing the attention of our Colton. Winter can sense Colton is sad and worth loving, so in the spirit of Christmas, he makes Colton’s happiness his mission.
These two together are like warm sugar cookies dipped in marshmallow-flavored hot cocoa. I love how the author describes everything so vividly throughout this story. She paints one perfect picture after another of snowy nights, cozy fireplaces, snow globes, naughty and nice sexy times, and adds all the feels with the HEA Colton and Winter surely deserve. Five peppermint stars for me. Highly recommend.

Driven to make her books about ‘real’ people; with characters who are perhaps less than perfect, but just as deserving of romance, thrills and chills, and some hot, sizzling sex in their lives.
