Christmas is only 28 days away!!!!
And ’tis the season when I start craving cozy Christmas reads. (Okay – I crave them all year round but now’s when I can get away with talking about them LOL) There’s something about the magic of my favorite holiday that makes me want to curl up with a mug of hot chocolate and a deliciously Christmasy book – it can make even the creepiest suspense novel feel warm and cozy haha!
I had so much fun with this last year, so I decided to make it an annual thing 🙂 Continuing through the end of the year, I’m going to spotlight several new/recent Christmasy releases. So… snuggle in, grab your fave hot beverage and comfiest blanket, turn on some Christmas tunes and start your bookish Christmas list! Oh… and did I mention there are GIVEAWAYS with EACH POST in this series??!! (Because authors are awesome!)
Today’s book is a romantic suspense novel with a cold case, a swoony sheriff, and a second chance at romance!
Secrets lie buried in ice…
One of them can kill her.
Home for Christmas after her long-missing mother’s body is found, nothing will keep Nora Livingstone from uncovering the truth about the cold case.
Especially not Deputy Sheriff Rush Buchanan, whom she once loved and left.
Even when threats become attempts on her life, Rush can’t dissuade her–but he will protect her.
Because someone is determined to bury the truth…or bury Nora.
