The world Ms. Oz built for this story is fascinating yet familiar, with few characters to distract from the main couple.
Holly Claus is a delight. She is modern, yet sweet and gentle too. She has trouble being around strangers, but is comfortable with David. She has issues with one of her father’s reindeer, and her sarcasm with that animal is fun to see. I like listening to her ‘inner dialogue’ about David as she becomes closer to him, and loved her combination of sexiness and innocence.
David White is an interesting hero. He writes children’s books, and he’s one hot hunk. His only fault was agreeing to the television show in a moment of weakness, after his girlfriend left him. I love David’s sense of humor, and his willingness to believe in the unbelievable, and accept Holly for who she really is.
There are some fun parts to this story, as Holly and David become acquainted and learn that things aren’t always what they may appear to be. I loved that, just as things were heating up between our lovely elf and her hot hunk, big brother shows up to take Holly back to the North Pole and her family. The rest of the story is delightful, and I was surprised at the things David was willing to do to try and contact Holly to see if there was really something there to build a relationship on.
Do Holly and David have a happy ever after? Check out Far From Silent Night, and add some wonderful holiday warmth to your life.
