About book Seaside Christmas, A (2013)

Jenny, a successful Nashville songwriter heads home to Chesapeake Shores to mend hr broken heart, renew family ties, and write music for a Christmas play. Caleb, a recovering alcoholic, recovering cheater, and superstar country singer, follows Jenny to town in hopes of winning her back.While I liked the writing style well enough; there were several areas where this novel disappointed me. I thought Jenny and her family could have and should have been less welcoming to Caleb, they all made forgiveness so easy on him, and it cut a lot of the potential tension from the story, and for me, romances thrive on tension. I thought Jenny and her much younger little half-brother had the most interesting relationship in the book, it was brave of the author to let her heroine be jealous and resentful of a kid, not exactly likeable qualities, but I did like it, it felt honest and I was sorry that there wasn’t more interaction between the two, their bonding moment felt too instantaneous for my liking.I was also a bit let down by the Christmas content, there’s some decorating, though little else. It’s not an issue unique to this novel, I’ve often found books with Christmas titles and covers aren’t actually as Christmasy as I’d hoped they’d be.The bonus story at the back of the book is set on Christmas Eve, however, it’s a hundred pages of a mom falling in love while her son’s missing in a mall. It was hard for me to swallow that any mother would wonder how the mall Santa looks without his suit on while her kid’s nowhere to be found. I received this through a Goodreads giveaway. I enjoyed A Seaside Christmas and it was a quick read. . . The story centers around Jenny, an established song writer and her return to her hometown. During the four intervening years, her mom remarried and had a little boy and Jenny saw her love life explode in her face. Her relationship with country music star Caleb Green made all the headlines when he cheated on her. The public humiliation combined with the resentment she feels concerning her mom and little brother has broken her feelings of security and connection. I'm not writing anymore, read it now or put it on your Christmas list for next season. . .
