Sweet Surprises by Clara Pines

 


 
 

Synopsis:

  

All this single dad wants is a quiet Christmas, but he’s in for a sweet surprise…

Charlotte Kendrick is thrilled when her best friend invites her to run the family ice cream shop in small-town Sugarville Grove. She’s had a rough year with a bad break-up and a terrible loss. But Charlotte isn’t going to let that dampen her spirits. She’s determined to have fun, finish the things she starts, and avoid falling for another guy – especially her best friend’s grumpy, gorgeous older brother.

Tag Lawrence has buried himself in his work on the family dairy farm and his fierce love for his kids ever since losing his wife years ago. People might say he’s a grump, but he’d rather focus on his energetic five-year-old son and increasingly reserved thirteen-year-old daughter than worry about the world outside Lawrence Farm.

But when an early freeze and a burst pipe leave the pretty new manager of the dairy’s ice cream shop out in the cold, Tag feels obliged to offer her a home for the holidays. The upbeat young woman connects with his kids in a way that makes his chest ache, but Tag knows he will never allow himself to fall in love again. And he definitely can’t even think about getting involved with his little sister’s best friend, no matter how much her smiles make him feel like something is awakening in his heart.

Nothing short of a Christmas miracle could bring these two together. It’s a good thing they’re in Sugarville Grove this holiday season.

 

Review: 


 
 
Sweet Surprises takes us to Vermont, during a cold December in the small village of Sugarville Grove where everyone know each other, and when something change they all know it right away.

After a bad year Charlotte accepts to move and to accept to work for her best friend's ice cream shop in her characteristic town. She feels so good spending time with Allie's family on their farm, especially with her older brother Tag, and his two kids.

Charlotte is a very nice woman, she didn't let adversities to discourage her. Tag is a good man and a great father, but since he lost his young wife he became a workaholic grump. I adored to see them getting to know each other, and gradually they melt away their insecurities.
I loved these characters, and I hope to read more about the Lawrence brothers and sister.

Clara Pines gave us a new beautiful winter set for this story, but she delivered her usual nice and emotional storyline in hes unmistakable writing style.
