The Christmas Date
By Camilla Isley
Review written by HeidiLynn's BookReviews
First, I want to thank Camilla Isley,
Pink Bloom Press, and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring
you this review.
Thanksgiving is over now this time of
year is for watching Hallmark Channel Christmas Movies, listening to Pop
Christmas music on the radio, and curling up on the couch with a good cup of hot
tea and Camilla Isley’s new Christmas Book a Christmas Date (A Festive Holidays
Romantic Comedy) First Comes Love Series Book 3. I was craving to read a Christmas
book and this had every element that I was searching for and more.
Kudos to Camilla’s graphic designer
on her book cover. This cover was amazing filled with amazing fonts, presents, I
loved the Christmas border, the silhouette of the couple on the hill, and I
could totally relate to the saying No one wants to be single on the holidays
(as I am single and don’t want to be). This cover totally represents the book
very well.
I had to laugh at the Dedication for
all sisters who bicker a little at Christmas.
I loved the dynamic of Julia and Paul
and how their relationship evolved even though Julia knew that her older sister
had a thing for him. How Nicki feels so uncomfortable around them. Now years later Julia and Paul are getting
engaged. On the same night Blair her roommate gives her the news that she is
moving in with her boyfriend. My heart totally went out to her and wanted to
give her a hug!! All this news before Christmas!! Before she is to go home to spend
Christmas with her family! Camilla really did an amazing job with those two
scenes.
The dynamic
between Diego and Nickki started out one way but in my eyes turned out into
something much more beautiful. I was incredibly happy for Nickki after years of
pining over someone she could not have.
Camilla is a
great story tell with a creative eye. I would gladly read and review for her again.
Not just at Christmas time either.
This is
interesting about Camilla. She is an engineer turned writer after she quit her
job to follow her husband on an adventure abroad. She is a coffee addict and a
shoe hoarder. She loves to read as well as write. She must have popcorn when
going to the movies and she watches bad TV.
