Wish Upon a Christmas Star by Elle Douglas
The McCarthy Sisters (Book 1)
Tule Publishing (October 29, 2024)
Holiday Romance/Novella
Attorney Jeannie Carmichael can’t wait to celebrate Christmas at her grandparents’ Butterfly Lake Lodge in the Canadian Rockies. The night before she leaves, Jeannie and her colleagues stop for drinks at a local pub, where she chats with the handsome, charming guitar player of the house band. He shares his number, but Jeannie’s eyes are on her colleague and the promise of an invite to his fancy New Year’s Eve party, so she stuffs the number into her purse.
Everett McCarthy is shocked when the beautiful Jeannie from the bar calls him, but it’s about a Christmas Eve gig at her grandparents’ lodge, not a date. Still, he and the band accept and head to the mountains. Over the course of an eventful party, a tussle with an errant elk, and midnight snowshoeing through the woods under the glow of the romantic Northern lights, Everett is smitten. Christmas morning pancakes, a family hockey game and an evening sharing dreams by a bonfire under the stars seals the deal. He’s in love.
But can he convince Jeannie that their Christmas kiss is just their beginning?

REVIEW
A nice quick romance set at a lake lodge in Canada during Christmas. Loved the close-knit family, especially the relationship between Jeannie and her grandparents (her mother not so much). Everett is such an all-around great guy! Fantastic ending!
