Fans of Christina Lauren and Maggie Knox will adore this fun and festive romcom featuring a grumpy/sunshine duo who find themselves stuck together over the holidays, where the weather outside is frightful—but inside, things are heating up in this sexy holiday story.

Sorority mom Becca Fairfield is used to guys not taking her seriously. She’s too blond, too quirky, or Just. Too. Much. So she’s ditched dating to focus on her job and a house filled with drama and plenty of tea. Now with the holidays and a major blizzard on her doorstep, Becca has everything she needs to survive the next two weeks on her own. Hot cocoa, plenty of books . . . and the memory of a steamy kiss with a certain sexy, grumposaurus next-door neighbor to keep her warm.

Only Becca’s seriously underestimated this Snowpocalypse. So when the power goes out and Harrison Cooper—football coach, master crank, and the guy who acted mega-awkward after said steamy kiss—offers her shelter, it only makes sense to accept. They’ll just be Blizzard Buddies. Hang out, stay safe, and maybe indulge in a little R-rated cuddling. Becca knows that Harrison isn’t the dating kind, and what happens during the storm lasts only as long as the storm. But are they keeping warm . . . or playing with fire?

I adored this story! Snowed In for Christmas by Jaqueline Snowe is a grumpy-sunshine contemporary romance about two neighbors stuck together during a snowstorm. Sorority mom Becca Fairfield is looking forward to having a two-week break alone in the house over the holidays, however she severely underestimated the snow storm that is moving through. Without power and a broken window upstairs, the house is more like a giant freezer than shelter. Thankfully, her neighbor, the college’s football coach and a guy she dated once, offers for her to shelter with him. What’s the worst that could happen?

I like Becca. She is comfortable in her own skin, and she is done making apologies for her quirks. Most people see her as “too much.” Becca doesn’t take that judgment to heart though. She just shrugs it off (and that person) and moves on which has led her to her swearing off of men. Why should she change to make a man like her more? Cannot agree with that sentiment more!

Harrison Cooper is the football coach and neighbor who after one date two years prior blew off Becca. However, unbeknownst to her, it was unintentional and with very good reasons behind it. Harrison is the grumpy to her sunshine. He’s introverted and shy for a football coach, but it works for his character. I love how it is in contrast to Becca. Becca helps him come out of his shell some and even improves his coaching abilities.

Overall, I really enjoyed Snowed In for Christmas. The romance was sweet with some spice. Becca’s willingness to overlook Harrison ghosting her two years prior sets the stage for their story. If you are looking for a spicy romance surrounded in snow, I highly suggest this one.
