’Twas the week before Christmas and all through Summersweet,

Tess Powell was annoyed and wanted to retreat.

With a BIC in her hand and a frown on her face,

everyone knew she needed a break from this place.

Wanting the holiday to be nothing but the best,

Bodhi took his girlfriend to the mountains to rest.

While visions of fire happily danced in Tess’s head,

soon she would see she had everything to dread.

Crying kids, singing hippos, and a stalker with a van,

definitely wasn’t part of Bodhi’s evacuation plan.

But all he wanted for Christmas was for her to say yes,

to the question he kept asking with zero finesse.

With some help from new friends and their holiday cheer,

Tess and Bodhi get much more

than they asked Santa for this year.



Tess and Bodhi!
Finally!
We've been waiting for their story for decades!
And now here's their own little holiday novella.
And it was adorable. And HILARIOUS!
Even more hilarious than expected ... because of Millie!
Do you remember her from Tara's 2019 Christmas book?
If not, you need to read this asap ► Christmas ClichΓ©

Bodhi has been trying to ask Tess to marry him for a while now. But Tess is a tiny little bit anti marriage and babies. Just a tiny little bit.
And because she's extra stressed during the holiday season, Bodhi takes her away for a few days to a christmassy little Inn in West Virginia - which we already know from last year's book!
This years Christmas craziness will begin in 3....2....1
LOL!



LOL! ADORABLE!

I just loved this!
I loved the previous two books in this series and I absolutely adored the 2019 Christmas book. It was so ΓΌber-hilarious adorable!
And this was just so cute too.
We have slightly (very) crazy and quick-to-set-things-on-fire-if-she's-angry Tess. And her polar opposite boyfriend Bodhi. Former Malibu law-student rich boy turned constantly stoned surfer turned Golf Pro Caddie turned still-stoned Summersweet Island's man for every job.
Those two should not be together, but they're so perfect for each other!
I just adore them.
And the whole crazy christmas mood with ΓΌber-hilarious Millie in that cute little hotel was just so beautiful.
Netflix needs to hurry and make a 2021 Holiday movie out of this place and its people!

DASHING THROUGH THE NO was such an adorable + hilarious Christmas novella. I loved it! Hurry to your nearest amazon for your own Bodhi ... this one is MINE!




ARC received via author for an honest review
 
Since the Summersweet Island series started, Bodhi and Tess have been a great set of side characters, best friends of Palmer and Birdie.

Now, whilst I like them, to me they might have best stayed as secondary characters, as, and this is just me, Bodhi's stoner childish behaviour and Tess's rampant pyromania were just a little too much, way too full on.

Don't get me wrong, I liked where this story ended up; but by golly for me it was a bit of a struggle to put up with them.  And this is nothing to do with the author or book, but all on me.  And one thing that I never thought that I would say, but to me Bodhi was the more mature one this time.

It was great getting some of characters from the first 2 books, and I can never say no to a Christmas book.

I look forward to more Summersweet Island in my future.
