I have enjoyed all of the books in the Christmas in Garland collection by A.M. Heath so far, and Movie-Made Romance did not disappoint. I loved it! Such a great premise. I loved all the different Christmas movie themes that Carleigh used to try to get herself a boyfriend. See, she and her neighbor and friend would spend lots of time watching movies. Christmas movies which included these typical themes where people fall in love. And Carleigh is desperate to find herself a boyfriend, seeing as she hasn’t had a successful relationship since she found her ex-fiance cheating on her with another woman.
Of course, this ex-fiance is back in town to help his grandfather who had to go into a nursing home. This part spoke to me because of a couple of reasons. His grandfather was a hoarder. And my father was bad when it came to that. And he is having to take care of the house, which is what I had to do for my mom after she went into the nursing home. Thankfully my mom was NOT a hoarder.
But anyway, Josh is back in town, but he is claiming to be a changed man, even goes by Joshua now, not Josh thank you very much. While Carleigh is trying to find a new boyfriend in many different hilarious ways (such as sitting in the restaurant and when an interesting guy shows up, “innocently” getting a bit of whipped cream from her drink on her nose), Joshua is hoping to win Carleigh back.
What I found hilarious was her obliviousness to the fact that God seemed to be working in this relationship, because Joshua would somehow, without planning it, be in the vicinity of where she was trying to pull off her little meetings with different guys.
I won’t say any more, but this story was awesome and I highly recommend it and all the books in the Christmas in Garland collection. And yes, The Pantry makes an appearance in this book as well.
I received this book for free from the author as a part of the launch team and was not required to write a favorable review. These are my own, honest thoughts.
