The latest book I'm blogging is not really the 'latest' book, it's Abigail and Mistlestoe, a Silhouette Special Edition from 1994. It's aged well over the years and reads like a contemporary romance. (On a side note, there's nothing like a book that's taken on that yellow-paged tinge.) Abigail and Mistletoe follows the romance novel formula: Gruff man who doesn't know love and has been hurt in his past, a vulnerable woman...the two meet and it's love. In this case, Abigail is a makeup artist stays at Brady's father's Colorado cabins to help a woman dealing with scars. Abigail has a birthmark on her face that she tries to hide from Brady, but he doesn't mind, of course, once he sees it.
I really enjoyed this story. The Colorado setting is beautiful, the characters are friendly and likeable, and my favorite romances are the ones that take place at Christmastime.
You'll have a hard time finding this book anywhere, but for what it's worth, if you can track it down, it's a good, classic 90's romance.
