“Their romance blooms slowly, but it is quite sultry, a perfect way to get you all warmed up for the holidays.”
~ Under the Covers

In the fifth book of the Colorado High Country series, Pamela Clare adds a little bit of suspense to her Contemporary Romance series. When Rain Minear’s roof collapsed beneath all the snow, Joe rushes in to save his friend and General Manager. Although there’s a ten-year age difference between the two, age has no meaning when it comes to love. Their romance blooms slowly, but it is quite sultry, a perfect way to get you all warmed up for the holidays.

Clare has done some holiday stories in the past, but I feel like this one is slightly more serious in tone. Whenever I read this series, I feel like the style is written for a slightly more older audience. While the leads can be considered relatively young, the style in which it is written definitely feels more mature. It deals a lot with more issues that I think a lot of people can relate to but sometimes I felt could be easily solved with more communication.

All in all, this book is a great easy read for Pamela Clare fans. Blending together heartwarming moments with more serious topics, this book will have you reflecting on your own life and the precious holiday moments that come with it.

I’m an obsessive makeup junkie and a compulsive reader. I like to call Under the Covers Book Blog my stomping ground, but when I’m not talking about books with my girls, I write New Adult Dystopian and Contemporary Romance under the pen name Ana Jolene (http://www.anajolene.com). I also work as a virtual assistant for authors. You also can find me as a reviewer and columnist for FreshFiction.com.

When it comes to books I’m pretty adventurous. I read everything from Paranormal Romance to Urban Fantasy, New Adult, BDSM, LGBT fiction, Cozy Mysteries and even YA. If it’s got the littlest trace of romance in it, then I’ll probably read it. That being said, my all-time favorite authors are J.R. Ward and Karen Marie Moning.

When I’m not submerged in a good book, you can find me musing about makeup and planners or dreaming about Kpop boys and beaches. Until then, check out my reviews and let’s talk books!
