Tis the Season

Christmas Bliss

Christmas Bliss is Mary Kay Andrews' newest holiday novel, and it brings back old favorites, Weezie and Bebe (Savannah Blues, Savannah Breeze, and Blue Christmas).

Weezie is busy getting ready for her Christmas wedding to Daniel. It is especially stressful since Daniel is away in New York City as a guest chef.  At Bebe's instance, Weezie  makes a surprise trip up to see Daniel. She discovers that NYC is wonderful to visit, but home is truly where the heart is.

Bebe is eight months pregnant with her and Harry's child.  She is working at the Breeze Inn desk, when a lady walks in a drops a bomb on her.  She is still legally married to her second husband.  So now not only is she dealing with pregnancy, fixing up a house, but now she must track down her ex and get that divorce he promised her he filled years ago.

I simply love MKA's writing style, a little humor, a little romance, and a lot of southern charm.  Weezie and Bebe are such wonderful characters.  The things that they say and do are things I have been known to say and do.  They are a great picture of a southern woman.

Oh, and the setting in this book is one of my favorites.  Savannah is probably my favorite city.  The charm, the food, and the beauty of the city is captured so well by MKA.  It truly makes me miss living there.  Plus you get the bonus of Christmas time in NYC.

This is a wonderful little book you get you into the holiday spirit.  My only regret is that I missed being able to pick up an autographed copy and meet MKA when she was in Raleigh for a signing (Vet school problems).
