REVIEW OF
STUCK ON YOU
BY RHONDA GIBSON
I so enjoy sweet romances, and Rhonda Gibson’s, Stuck on You, is one of the sweetest. It is part of a Christmas anthology by Barbour Publishing, which also includes novellas by Diane Ashley, Janet Lee Barton, and Gail Sattler.
Inspired by a dream of her own to write children’s stories based on a collection of Christmas ornaments, Gibson has fashioned this novella around a heroine who does just that. The twist is that her character, Sheila Fisher, is strongly attracted to the creator of those ornaments when she meets with him to obtain permission to use them in her books. But the artist, Morgan Frost, stuns her with an ultimatum: he wants to approve all of her work and characters, along with a byline. Will she be able to, at last, realize her dream? Or will it be crushed by the handsome creator of her beloved ornament collection?
Gibson has skillfully crafted believable characters that immediately drew me into the story and caused me to care about them. The setting is so “up-to-the-moment,” that I felt right at home in Snowbound, Connecticut.
I haven’t yet read the other stories in this anthology, but if they’re as pleasing as Stuck on You, then I think those who enjoy reading Christmas books around the holiday season will truly love this one.
