When the Snow Settles by Rachel LaBergeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
“When the Snow Settles” is a heartwarming novella that invites you into the frost-kissed world of Ivy Lawson and Holland Holt. Picture snowflakes dancing in the glow of New York City lights; you’re right there with them.
Ivy Lawson—a spirited event planner—is back in the bustling city, orchestrating a red-carpet charity event for Sparks Wellness. She’s the kind of person who dives headfirst into projects, even if it means leaving her grumpy but oh-so-endearing lodge owner, Holland Holt, behind. Their chemistry crackles like a log in the fireplace, and their banter warms the pages.
But life isn’t all glittering snowflakes and hot cocoa. Ivy carries the weight of her past stay at The Emerald Canopy Lodge—a place that left its mark on her soul. And Holland? Well, he’s wrestling with secrets, the kind that frost over hearts and make decisions harder than ice.
Ivy and Holland steal a few precious days together as the charity event approaches. But then—a twist! A severe snowstorm descends, trapping them in a cocoon of white. It’s in these moments—the quiet ones, the ones where snowflakes settle—that emotions thaw and truths emerge.
🔥 What I Loved:
Atmosphere: LaBerge paints winter with a delicate brush. You’ll feel the chill, smell the snow, and hear the muffled crunch underfoot.
Character Depth: Ivy and Holland aren’t just names on a page; they’re people with histories, quirks, and vulnerabilities.
Romance: It’s like watching snowflakes melt into each other—a slow, beautiful collision
