A charming romance novel brimming with the warm glow of Christmas.
Pinecones, pageants and parrots, oh my! A Piney Mountain Holiday is a charming romance novel brimming with the warm glow of Christmas. The novel is divided into distinct sections that tell the interconnected stories of a few Piney Mountain residents. Each person is struggling with their unique inadequacies and insecurities, all while navigating small town living and budding romances. Lisa is content with her life as a single interior designer that dabbles in local politics in her quaint town. Among the snow-capped mountains and glistening icicles, a local psychic has trouble knowing the difference between sweeping visions and intestinal distresses, and an overbearing and affectionately intrusive sister has to reconcile her past with her present. All together, their lives intertwine and come together to form a joyful holiday wreath of love and light.
Mia Frazier captures so much vitality and festiveness in the pages of A Piney Mountain holiday. There is nothing glamorous about needing to take thyroid medicine or a car accident resulting from a winter storm. Yet the experiences are told with a genuine voice and a bit of gusto, making the mundane feel extraordinary. Eccentric characters and soul-warming hot cocoas abound in this charming holiday-centric novel. Lisa is rife with sage advice, such as, “No one can forge a meaningful relationship with someone who nails a dead swordfish over his sofa.” Wise words, indeed! A comical African Gray parrot named Huntley and a slew of well chosen pop-culture references amp up the humor and add to the jovial feel of the book. Get ready to pin up your mistletoe and gather your cinnamon sticks while you sip a hot drink and enjoy A Piney Mountain Holiday.
