Another fantastic story from this author. This is an amazing romantic suspense read with plenty of angst, drama and suspense. This author has a fab way of sucking you into the story so you feel all the characters emotions along with them. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended

Very satisfying read, as I've come to expect from Bear. While the intrigues could have been explained a bit more (especially on the fae side), I felt a kinship with the characters who were never quite certain as to what was going on. There was much less angst about who might be doing whom in this volume than in the last, which was a relief.

Gossip girl but in the Hamptons and the girl is the neice of the housekeeper.
I thought this would have more romance but mostly it is teenage angst, stuck up rich people, and two girls who become friends after some pretty weird stuff happens. It was a short read that was perfect for just having around but honestly I don't think I would pick it up ever again.

I have two teenage nieces and I watch a lot of teen movies. The Kissing Booth is a fun movie to watch. Its full of teenage mischief, and drama. It doesn't try to be politically correct or have an agenda. It is all about teenage drama, angst, mischief, first love. It's a movie worth having in your collection right along side sixteen candles, breakfast club etc....

"Existential angst, black-and-white landscapes that feel cut out of slate and bone, quivering ruminations on mortality, and symbolic self-reflexive experimentation in film form-that’s all very masterful and inspiring and well and good, but I didn’t fall in love with Bergman until I discovered (via this box set) Fanny and Alexander. A rich adult fairy tale about how we use storytelling in our lives, not for pleasure alone."

GET FROSTED is the third book in the multi-author series, Christmas Falls. This time we have the managers of the two pubs - Frosty's and Rudolph's. They have known each other for years as Rudy was Mik's brother's best friend. They had a rivalry that was blown out of proportion to keep them both in the spotlight when they played hockey. Rudy is the one who has always moved around. Mik is the one with deep roots in Christmas Falls.

Although I enjoyed the story, it didn't press as many buttons as the previous books have. I also can't agree with them being 'forced' to work together. No one forced anything. Although this is billed as low angst, I actually would have preferred a little more angst! It felt as though the storyline about Rudy possibly leaving was almost lost amidst the pregnant sister-in-law and the birthday granny.

On the whole, I enjoyed this story and did enjoy being back in Christmas Falls. It just didn't work as well for me as the others have. I have no hesitation in recommending it for all those who love a low-angst seasonal story.

** same worded review will appear elsewhere **

This is the first book in the series by this author. This is a second chance romance story which is full of suspense and angst. You will fall in love with the characters from the beginning. I just couldn't put this book down till I'd finished it. I can't wait to read in this series and by this author in the future.
