This book was my first Brenda Novak and it made me a fan, particularly of this series, as it helped through a challenging holiday season. When my real-life, nail-biter situation of two friends in the hospital woke me in the middle of the night, I read When Snow Falls under the covers with my flashlight (so as not to wake dear hubby). The combination is perfect:
- Compelling page turner
- Cozy white Christmas
- Good and not-so-good but very realistic characters
I love Cheyenne. I feel like I would make every decision Chey makes and feel every feeling that Chey feels, if I were in her circumstances. One time, after she did something, she said, “That was so colossally stupid.” I love that line! I could see myself doing that very thing and then slapping my forehead and saying that.
There’s a juicy twist, partway in, that I didn’t see coming at all!
All that and a satisfying end. Who needs whiskey when you can have Whiskey Creek?
