Christmas in Silverwood
Dorothy Dreyer
Published by: Rosewind Books
Publication date: November 9th 2021
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance
Holly St. Ives is in a rut. Once a celebrated artist making waves in New York City, she finds herself uninspired and unmotivated. Her recent break-up is the last push she needs to spend Christmas alone in the small mountain cabin her father left her in his will—a family getaway she hasn’t visited in years.
After a near accident in Silverwood, she meets Nick, whom she learns is responsible for everything in the small town running like clockwork—including the upcoming Christmas festival and the town’s entry in the state-wide tree decorating contest. Holly doesn’t have time for Nick’s beguiling charm or mouth-watering holiday cupcakes, but after meeting his father, she discovers there’s more to the town’s obsession with the contest than meets the eye.
Touched by the prospect that the whole town is willing to pitch in for a good cause, Holly can feel her Christmas spirit making a comeback as Nick—and his team of Alaskan Malamutes—works his way into her heart to show her the meaning of Christmas again.

My Review
There are so many holiday romances out there, but Christmas in Silverwood is one of the truly interesting ones. The characters aren’t one-dimensional. The two main characters don’t start off with the best introduction. Holly St. Ives is already discouraged, but when she tries to navigate snowy mountain roads she didn’t count on a big truck and a dog blocking her way. When she slides close to the edge of the ditch the dog startles her and the dog’s owner seems to be a jerk.
As she heads into Silverwood she imagines the worst about him. She finds out that his name is Nick and he seems to have his finger in all the pies there. She decides that he must have a very big ego, but he’s still great looking. She goes to her family cabin to try and find some new motivation to revive her once-great art career. Silverwood is a long way from New York and she tries to adjust. Everyone in town treats her great, especially when they see that Nick has his eye on her.
Will Holly learn to see the real truth about Nick? Will she go back to New York? You’ll enjoy this sweet and clean romance! A fun holiday read!
