{Revell Blog Tour} A Christmas in the Alps: A Christmas Novella by Melody Carlson


 Book Description:  After a time of heartache and loss, Simone Winthrop discovers a tantalizing letter from her French great-grandmother, which seems to suggest that she is heir to a family treasure. Ever practical, Simone assumes the claim is baseless, but her best friend encourages her to find out for sure. Despite her deep-rooted fear of flying, Simone boards a jet to travel to Paris at Christmastime to uncover the truth.

During the long flight, Simone meets the charming Kyle Larsson, who's on his way to France to become an apprentice clockmaker. Though they abruptly part ways, an unexpected rendezvous in the French Alps at Simone's family's clock factory may lead to the discovery of the family treasure . . . and so much more.

My Thoughts:  It's never too early for Christmas reads.  And this story penned by Melody Carlson is one of the best ways to get in the holiday spirit, especially after the last year we all endured.

Simone is feeling weak, weary and discouraged.  She finds a letter from her great-grandma.  A letter that seems to suggest that Simone may be the heir family treasure.  But in order to find out what this family treasure is she must conquer her fear of flying and get on a plane bound for Paris at Christmas.

She makes it on the plane and then she meets a charming man, Kyle Larsson, who is going to France to be an apprentice in clock making.  Unfortunately, Kyle and Simone have to part ways rather quickly but as life would have it they meet again on the French Alps.

This isn't just a "regular"  Christmas read and definitely not your everyday romantic read.  If you know Melody Carlson then you know this is going to be a fun quirky story with a not so normal ending.  

The fun is in the reading of this adventure!
