Kentucky Christmas by Sarah Title
When Andrew Bateman rolls into town in the midst of a snow storm, his first thought is that the place is hardly big enough for a dog crate, let alone the vet practice he’s looking for. Next thing he knows, his life is flashing in front of him—a depressingly short flash—as he skids right into the side of the local bar.
Things start looking up when the vision he wakes to is not the Angel of Death, but a doctor. Well, actually a vet. Make that a vet tech, wearing red mittens. Who invites him home, where every inch is covered in holiday sparkles, cookies to be decorated, and an odd assortment of stray dogs, cats and puppies…
There’s nothing merrier than a white Christmas in Kentucky!**
I received this from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.
I will admit that I requested this book because its about a town in Kentucky. I was born there so I was drawn to it! I'm so glad I did!
This is a novella using some of the same characters from the authors debut novel Kentucky Home. I haven't read that book but I did not feel like I was missing anything from the story. This could be read as a stand alone I think.
Andrew is trying to make money, having been laid off from his job as a computer tech, he needs this sales job his cousin has given him. Selling vet equipment isn't his forte but he's meets Billie. He likes her and she's the one that saved him from his accident. Now she's offering him a place to stay and he takes her up on that.
Billie likes the look of Andrew. He helped her out by fixing a machine instead of trying to sell one to her. She just feels comfortable with him.
The town was welcoming and helpful. Everything that New York City isn't. Andrew was confused but he liked the feeling the got from it all. Even the sparkly crap. Sharing Christmas traditions with Billie and finally feeling like it was a holiday to celebrate instead of hide in a bathroom.
Loved this cute little Christmas novella. It was an easy read and just what I love to read this time of year. Check it out and leave the author some love in the form of a review!
