Can’t Wait Wednesday – Catching Christmas

August 22, 2018 by Suzie Waltner 6 Comments

cant wait wednesday

 

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally, they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. If you’re continuing with WOW, feel free to link those up as well! Find out more here.

 

There are a few reasons why I’m looking forward to Terri Blackstock’s upcoming release. First, it’s a Christmas story—Blackstock’s first. This book is also a departure from her usual romantic suspense genre which has me intrigued. And then there is that book description. How could I not want to read this?

 

Catching Christmas

 

“The feel-good Christmas book of the year. Blackstock’s tale of love and redemption wrapped in a holiday bow will leave you smiling. Don’t miss Catching Christmas.” —New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hauck

This Year, Christmas Comes Just in Time 

As a first-year law associate, Sydney Batson knows she will be updating her resume by New Year’s if she loses her current court case. So when her grandmother gets inexplicably ill while she’s in court, Sydney arranges for a cab to get her to the clinic.

The last thing cab driver Finn Parrish wants is to be saddled with a wheelchair-bound old lady with dementia. But because Miss Callie reminds him of his own mother, whom he failed miserably in her last days, he can’t say no when she keeps calling him for rides. Once a successful gourmet chef, Finn’s biggest concern now is making his rent, but half the time Callie doesn’t remember to pay him. And as she starts to feel better, she leads him on wild goose chases to find a Christmas date for her granddaughter.

When Finn meets Sydney, he’s quite sure that she’s never needed help finding a date. Does Miss Callie have an ulterior motive, or is this just a mission driven by delusions? He’s willing to do whatever he can to help fulfill Callie’s Christmas wish. He just never expected to be a vital part of it.

Are you a fan of Christmas reads year-round or are you a purist who only read them during the holidays?

    I can’t read Christmas books before Halloween… Or after New Years. It just feels wrong, lol.

    Sounds like a good holiday read. Hope you enjoy it and once I see some reviews, I may pick it up. It must be getting closer to Christmas because I featured a holiday read today too.
