Competitive,
work-obsessed Bella Simonetti has just been fired from her high-paying job at a
Manhattan law firm. At an all-time low, she returns home and helps her parents
at their small-town gift shop, but the business is failing and may not make it
past the Christmas holidays.
Successful
landscape architect Dean Jackson is like a son to Bella's parents. But he's a
persistent annoyance to her—he seems to have forgotten his unforgivable blunder
thirteen years earlier.
When
Bella transforms her parents' gift shop into a cookie cottage, Dean's
generosity and magnetic smile are hard to resist, and those feelings of
unrequited adolescent love come rushing back. But can Bella let go of the past
and accept Dean for the man he is today?
Our
Review:
Author Maria Imbalzano continually treats her many fans to another of her sweet,
contemporary romances. This one features Bella and Dean, two people who knew each
other as teenagers and now are thrown together when they attempt to help her
parents reinvent their gift shop into a cookie haven. In more ways than one, Red
Velvet Crinkles and Christmas Sprinkles is a story of starting over,
putting the past in its proper spot: the past in order to forge a future filled
with love and promise and hope.
Based on
a scale of 1-5, Red Velvet Crinkles and Christmas Sprinkles earns a 6.
