Book Spotlight: First Flurries by Joanne DeMaio




SYNOPSIS:

From New York Times bestselling author Joanne DeMaio comes a novel snow-dusted with love and possibility.

Lindsey Haynes' father once gave her a snow globe with the note: "Unsure where to go? Give a little shake ... and your heart will always know." On a whim, those words lead her to the quaint New England town of Addison. It's a place straight out of a storybook with its twinkling town green, decorated Main Street, and secluded lakeside cabin community.

But an encounter with a dejected doctor named Greg Davis turns Lindsey's days upside down, much like a snow globe in motion. With a little nudge from endearing townsfolk, and a few chance meetings of their own, a magical flurry of emotions suddenly swirls around them.

First Flurries is an enchanting story about finding love and home when you're not even looking. So cozy up and settle in with a tale that will simply capture your holiday heart.

MY REVIEW:

First Flurries by Joanne DeMaio
Have read other works by the author and have loved them all.
This one starts out with Lindsey and she's  driving around towing her tiny house to a new location. As she nears Addison, CT she recalls an uncle there and maneuvers to his location, at the lake. Love how she finds an item because this is what really happens in New England-you leave things for others along the side of the road.
He's the man in charge of the cabins in the woods, at the lake. Love his mode of transportation, priceless!. He's set her up so she can show her vintage wares at the green where all the locals are displaying their crafts.
Problem is she backs into Dr. Greg's car and things escalate pass that...that is the first of many 'collisions'.
She gets advice from Penny about a kiss will tell where your true heart lies and she makes a wish and hopes she gets it for Christmas. Things don't go as planned and are misundersood.
Love hearing of the festivities of the town-such a busy night life, sounds beautiful.
Like hearing how she lives in her tiny house but it's also her shop of vintage clothes and she also sells them on the net, so resourceful!
Love white tail deer trivia-i learn something new every book I read from this author-even new words!
Other excerpts from books are included along with highlights of other works by the author. About the author is attached as well.
Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.
