Review: A Lot Like Christmas by Jennifer Snow

From sipping hot chocolates at the local festival of lights to early morning dessert deliveries, Jessica and Mitch rediscover the spirit of the holidays. But when the 25 days of Christmas are over, will their romance be over, too?

We are back in Blue Moon Bay for the second book in the series, A Lot Like Christmas by Jennifer Snow. You will be warmed to see some old friends and get swooned with the unexpected gift the holidays can bring. As they say, love will find you when you least expected.

Jessica Connolly has not had success in the relationship area. She has a wonderful life, surrounded amazing family and friends but is only missing one thing. As what seems like the only baker in the town, she seems to be gifted the task to design the cakes of her ex boyfriends. Add insult to injury, for every breakup that happens, they seem to find their person which she has been coined the lucky charm for guys to find the one with everyone but her. So what else can she do but throw in the towel.

Mitch Jameson is the perfect guy except for the fact that he seems to be able to commit to everything but a relationship that would have him settled down in one place. He rather spend his life traveling the world with Doctors Without Borders. With his annual trip home for the holidays, he's not looking forward to conversations that seem to swarm around this topic. He just wants to enjoy the time with his family and head out. Only this holiday brought something unexpected to mix, a certain beautiful baker not only caught his attention but has his heart questioning what he really wants.

With the holidays almost over and his time to leave Blue Moon Bay approaching, will Mitch follow listen to his heart or follow his dreams?

I really enjoyed this book and feel it was a wonderful continuation of the first book in the series. It was nice to see Sara and Whitney. Jessica is the character that you just want to finally get a chance at happiness. She is such a lovable character and I love the relationship between her aunt and her friends. Mitch, not only being a doctor but has so many qualities that would be perfect given the opportunity to meet the right person. You can't help not root for them.

It was nice coming back to Blue Moon Bay and all the sweetness and charm it has and can't wait to see what's to come in book three. The characters complemented with their family and friends in this small town setting really invite you into their lives. I'm so bummed that the next book will be the last in the series so if you haven't read the first, back read to catch up. The next and last book in the series will be A Lot Like Forever. If you haven't got a chance to read the series, it's a nice one that you should check out.
