Sept 24 Bok Review: The Christmas Cottage by Davis Bunn

  



 
The Christmas Cottage by Davis Bunn 
Starts out with Olivia and she's taking her time along the highway to make it to Miramar. There is a storm that is keeping her from going faster. She's got everything she owns in the back of her car, mostly camera equipment as that's how she earned her living before the writer’s’ strike in Hollywood. She's returning to the place where she grew up.
Story also follow Dillon and he's a local guy now as he returned after his company failed. He needs to just keep busy and helps out with town FEMA reports so they can get money to help rebuild the devastated town. It's Christmas and even the local restaurant feeds everyone for free. There is no electric, some have generators. Everybody helps out with donations to impress the politicians that are coming to access the damage for themselves. They stay in a safe location due to all the damage to their houses.
Love what Dillon does to help others and how he finds he true love. Dillon and Olivia do spend time together as friends. Love how she is able to give gifts to others at such a dismal time.  Love how they combine their resources and propose a sale to the builder who's been hounding them to sell for years. They have stipulations.
First time reading this author and love the details, very descriptive. Can’t wait to read more from this author.
Twists and turns and others have secrets also that help the story along.  Comes out a lot different than how I expected it to end.
Received this review copy from Kensington Publishing Kensington via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.
