A couple married for one day seven years ago only to have their dreams implode before the sun set on their wedding day is the perfect starting point for this charmingly witty romantic comedy by Mary Lee Painter, author of Wild in Minnesota.
In Holiday on the Rocks an unexpected reunion occurs when Allie and Levi find themselves attending the same friend’s holiday wedding in Colorado. According to the publisher’s synopsis, Allie’s goal is simply to survive the event and never see him again, while Levi has other plans – he’s determined to win back the woman he let slip away. A snow storm traps the pair together with their unresolved past shining through like a diamond. As the snow falls outside they strike up a deal to finally put their past to rest.
The forced proximity trope combined with a second-chance romance during the holiday season offers readers a seasonal story with emotional depth and fast-paced sarcastic banter Painter is known for.
The novel will be available through major retailers including Amazon and BarnesandNoble.com starting October 20th with pre-orders available now. Readers interested in exploring Painter’s previous works can find The Other Fork in the Road, a high-concept story, and Wild in Minnesota, a hockey romance, currently available through the same retailers.
