Holiday magic photos The story opens with Georgia finding her fianc in bed with another woman Mark s bachelor party had been the previous night and he had no memory of how he ended up sharing a bed with another woman He loved Georgia and knew he would never cheat but he didn t know what happened But rather than talking and trying to figure things out that very same day Georgia runs to New York to get away and doesn t come back for three years During that time she makes no attempt to talk to her ex fianc The below are some of my thoughts Georgia I understood her heartbreak but I thought her mad dash to another city was a bit immature She completely abandons her fianc without even trying to talk about what happened It s not like she caught him in the act he was sleeping So maybe things weren t necessarily what she thought She never once gave the man she loved an opportunity to explain anything Georgia she was insecure Even after they slept together and declared their love she was still insecure about his feelings The reason why she was so insecure was because everyone leaves her Not so Yes her parents died when she was young but this wasn t a valid excuse for me and it was unoriginal Pointless descriptions Georgia designs jewelry and there were many many descriptions about her designs I started skipping over those paragraphs as I didn t feel it added any value to the story the writing although there weren t any grammar errors I found it to be of a telling story I felt very detached from the main characters I thought the ending was a bit rushed ebook I LOVED THIS BOOK This is one of those stories that made my heart hurt it is so full of emotion and those emotions are portrayed so well by way of dialogue and interior monologues Susanne set the whole story up perfectly and the way it progressed had my dying to know what happened next I literally was on the verge of tears several times. Holiday magic napkin holder I was wondering where the story was going at first Georgia and Mark s love for each other seemed to be laid on a little thick all that was missing was the I wuv you Schmoopie a la Seinfeld but by the end of the first chapter I buckled in for what I knew would be a REALLY great story And it was I cannot say enough how emotional this story was and how much I truly loved reading it I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review ebook Another great story by Susanne Matthews I loved the interaction with twin sisters Georgia and Eleni The ending left me eager for the next book in the series Great romance to get you in the holiday spirit ebook

Book Holiday magic johnson I want to make this point crystal clear here is a woman who claims to have found true love with a great man who she plans to marry and spend her entire life with However when a significant issue comes up between them she abandons him cancels their wedding and moves out of town but NEVER ONCE TALKS TO HIM OR EVEN HEARS HIS SIDE OF THE STORY. PDF Holiday magic Georgia made a decision that the relationship was over between them However instead of healing and moving forward she agonizes over the past constantly how could he do this to me etc Through all her agony she never once considers that maybe there is another explanation for the situation besides a consensual fling between the two of them. Book Holiday magic As the story opens Georgia had been thinking of returning to her hometown for awhile but agrees to move home early to help her sister Eleni run the business that she co owns with Mark while her sister takes another job which will require her to be away from her business for the holiday season. Historical fiction holiday magic books During their interactions at the business Mark is a total gentleman to Georgia He keeps it professional and tries hard not to make her uncomfortable He never pushes her to talk about their break up despite his hurt feelings and desire to discuss the situation. Book Holiday magicjack Predictably it finally comes out to Georgia that the situation wasn t what she believed and it was all her misunderstanding of the situation Georgia laments on the three years she wasted and plans to talk to Mark about it soon but there s work to be done so the discussion about their future can wait until after work which says an awful lot about Georgia s priorities Then something dramatic occurs Mark gets injured while they are snowed in at a work site and no medical help is available and Georgia suddenly realizes that she can t live without Mark There is a poorly done apology from Georgia an all too quick acceptance of her back into his life from Mark and a rushed into HEA ending. Holiday magic studios fresno I consider trust to be an essential foundation of a good relationship and Georgia shows no trust in Mark Her lack of trust is what caused the breakup along with her unwillingness to believe anything other then her own assumptions Right up to the end of the book when they are coming back together Georgia says in her lame apology to Mark I don t care what did or didn t happen excuse me you were told by the bridesmaid that nothing sexual happened and it was all a set up After all the hurt your assumptions have caused him I think you can come up with a whole lot better apology then that Why is it that you still seem to have doubts that something could could have happened Why can t you come right out and say that you trust him While it was nice to see Georgia realize how wrong she was to abandon him without even considering there were other explanations Georgia did nothing to make me believe that she had truly changed Georgia has realized that she loves and wants Mark but she has not convinced me that she respects and trusts Mark. Holiday Magic book Mark seems like a likeable stand up kind of guy While I recognize the deep emotional bond Mark has with Georgia and how Mark feels there will never be another woman for him as the book dragged on I found myself feeling sad that Mark was going to get stuck with Georgia I don t feel Georgia is good enough for Mark Mark is a good man and he deserves a woman who not only loves him but trusts him. Holiday magic show I didn t feel any attraction heat or chemistry between the characters They had their moments where they showed that they were hung up on obsessing about each other but it left me with the feeling that they had unaddressed emotional problems that needed counseling or therapy and not that they were romantically desiring or sexually lustful of each other. Book Holiday magic kingdom Exploring the HEA I want to believe in happily ever after but somehow with Georgia in the relationship I just don t think it s possible In a romance where there was a couple who had a previous relationship but then separated I ask myself if the situation that caused their original breakup was somehow repeated again would things be handled differently now or would they break up again Georgia has shown a history for abandoning those she loves when she feels betrayed without even confirming that there was in fact an actual betrayal Over the course of the book I did not see a transformation in Georgia that would convince me she would stand by Mark through good AND bad times for better or worse I feel that perhaps Georgia may be likely to try and work things out perhaps even hear his side of the story and not jump to conclusions but I m not convinced she has fundamentally changed deeply enough to enter into the commitment of marriage and give it her all to make it work. Book Holiday magicjack When I look into the future for these two I fear that Mark wound up with a partner who may likely abandon him at the next major problem in their relationship and to me that s no HEA This is the first book I read from this author and while there were some good points overall I did not like this book The writing itself was good I just found myself with a serious dislike of the main female character Georgia Because I believe in second chances I will likely read the next book in the series about Georgia s sister Eleni and Garth Joe Hopefully this book was just a case of a character who did not work for me perhaps other works by this author will not have such an issue ebook Enjoyed it A quick read about a second chance romance ebook This is a holiday book based on second chances It was a short but sweet read that I really enjoyed Georgia and Mark were set to get married on Christmas Eve three years ago After Mark s bachelor party things didn t end as they should have When Georgia finds Mark naked in one of her bridesmaids bed she s done After 3 years away living in New York Georgia is ready to come home thanks to her twin sister her time table is moved up a bit What Georgia doesn t expect is that she will be forced to work with her ex fiance Georgia has never gotten over Mark and his betrayal What she doesn t realize a fantastic holiday read.
