Laurel Reynolds is a romance novelist with a celebrity pedigree who returns to her Lake Tahoe roots in search of a fresh start. Falling in love with McGovern Scott was not on the agenda. Gov is all in favor of her plan to start over—as long as it’s with him. But has Laurel fallen for Tahoe’s favorite son or the sexy hero she created? And can she trust her broken heart enough to let one Christmas in Tahoe turn into forever?

Christmas In Tahoe earns a piece of my heart
Anticipating an overwhelming emersion in — all things — Christmas – with Christmas In Tahoe, the novel pleasantly surprised me. Instead of the expected holiday extravaganza, the story unfolds with a charming romance that feels akin to Die Hard, but romantic. This unexpected twist on the typical holiday romance genre sets the novel apart from offering readers a refreshing and unique take on the festive narrative. Christmas In Tahoe proves that sometimes straying from the traditional path can lead to an even more enchanting and memorable reading experience. Martha O’Sullivan weaves a charming tale around Laurel Reynolds who grapples with the decision of completing her book and settling in a picturesque Tahoe. Amidst the incredible descriptions and clever dialogue, a blossoming romance unfolds between Laurel and McGovern Scott adding a sweet touch to the holiday backdrop. The heart of the setting of the story lies in the uncertainty of whether this newfound love will be compelling enough for Laurel to make Tahoe her permanent home. As the plot unfolds, readers are taken on a journey filled with warmth suspense and the question of whether love can truly anchor Laurel to the enchanting world she rediscovers in Tahoe. Just as Die Hard challenges Christmas movie norms, this novel cleverly challenges the expectations of a traditional romantic holiday story making it a delightful and engaging read. Christmas In Tahoe has earned a piece of my heart and Ms. O’Sullivan a new fan.

fairytales do come true
This is a classic tale with a modern twist, picking up pieces of many dreams and combining them to create a heart-warning story. Love, loss, life, and the rollercoasters of reality mesh here into a good tale.

This is my favorite book of all time! I could not put it down!

Picturing Tahoe
I enjoy the descriptive prose used in this book. Martha enables you to see it thru her eyes. Enough story and plot twist to keep you entertained and interested.

Great vacation read!
The author does a beautiful job painting the setting for a sweet love story. If you have not been to Lake Tahoe, you will want to visit. If you have, it will feel so familiar and make you yearn to return.

It’s not a Christmas book.
It’s a juicy romance about good people, their friends and family and beautiful Tahoe. I recommend reading this and the author’s other books while on vacation – especially if you’re going to Tahoe! I downloaded a copy onto my Kindle.

A very solid and sweet love story. I loved the character development and couldn’t put it down!
