Sean Hughes likes being single-much to his family's dismay. They want him to settle down...now. When he gives fun-loving snowboarder Zoe Flynn a ride to the slopes, Sean hatches a plan to throw off his matchmaking relatives. He asks Zoe to pose as his girlfriend at Thanksgiving dinner, which will take the pressure off him and make the evening more enjoyable all around. Zoe agrees to be Sean's fake girlfriend. Who wouldn't want a free meal or a chance to hang out with the handsome mountain rescuer and his adorable husky? When an injury occurs, the two are forced to continue their one-night ruse. As Christmas approaches, make-believe turns into reality. But Zoe has a secret...a big one. Is their new relationship strong enough to withstand the truth, or will she find herself with no one to kiss at midnight on New Year's Eve? No library descriptions found. |

Zoe Carrington is an ultra rich socialite and party girl, but in order not to ruin her mother's politic aspirations, she has to go into hiding for some time. In the village of Hood Hamlet in Oregon she meets Sean Hughes, the owner of a snowboard company, who gives her a lift. When he has an accident and needs a carer, she moves in with him and takes on the role of a pretend girlfriend to stop his mother's interfering.
Apart from the utterly predictable plot, I thought that a lot of the dialogue - especially towards the end - was badly written. It was also hard for me to sympathize with the problems of someone as rich and sheltered as Zoe, and her transformation was hard to believe. Unfortunately, there was almost no mountain rescue in this story and the mountain rescue team does not appear a lot.
However, I still liked the atmosphere of Hood Hamlet as well as Sean as the male protagonist. There were some chapters I really enjoyed and I do hope that book 3 is better - I will read it because the female protagonist is one of my favourite side characters. ( )
