This was decidely un-christmassy and mainly focused on a romance with a bit of snow and some mountains! If you like a lot of romance in a book then this is definitely the book for you. Not only did her warmth help him warm up but it also made him hard apparently! I found it a bit over the top to be honest and the underlying story was a little lost. It’s not really a book to get you in the Christmas spirit. If Christmas was taken out of the title it would make more sense. An Alaskan Romance is more like it. Jennifer Snow is a romance writer and I’m not particularly a romance reader – so I’m probably not the most ideal person to review this book.. A ‘hard’ two stars from me.

In Alaska, it’s always a white Christmas—but the sparks flying between two reunited friends could turn it red-hot…

If there’s one gift Erika Sheraton does not want for Christmas, it’s a vacation. Ordered to take time off, the workaholic surgeon reluctantly trades in her scrubs for a ski suit and heads to Wild River, Alaska. Her friend Cassie owns a tour company that offers adventures to fit every visitor. But nothing compares to the adrenaline rush Erika feels on being reunited with Cassie’s brother, Reed Reynolds.

Gone is the buttoned-up girl Reed remembers. His sister’s best friend has blossomed into a strong, skilled, confident woman. She’s exactly what his search-and-rescue team needs—and everything he didn’t know he craved. The gulf between his life in Wild River and her big-city career is wide. But it’s no match for a desire powerful enough to melt two stubborn hearts…
