Ashley Davison is desperate to spend the holidays with her mother in Seattle. Dash Sutherland has an interview for the job of a lifetime in Seattle and must arrive by 23 December.
Both frantic to book a last-minute flight out of California, Ashley and Dash collide at the airport to learn that there are no flights and only one rental car available.
Ashley desperately needs to get home for Christmas, but she wasn't expecting her flight to be cancelled last minute, nor did she did she think that she would be sharing the last remaining car in the rental park.
Dash has an important interview to get to, that he simply can't afford to miss. Though when in the company of Ashley, he starts to think that a couple of hours wouldn't hurt.
With only 24 hours to go until Christmas, both Ashley and Dash decide to put their very big differences and opinions aside and decide that driving through the night is the answer. Though some things are best left unsaid and some secrets are better left to rest. Besides, there's only so far you can run away from your past.
Dashing Through the Snow by Debbie Macombre, is the first book that have read by this author, it was part of my Christmas reads last year and was quite a quick read.
I'll be honest, I didn't enjoy the book. My main reasons would be that there didn't seem much depth to the characters, the storyline seemed flat and the overall ending was a bit cliche.
For the characters, their relationship seemed forced and it came across as more of a father/daughter relationship rather than a romance. Ashley was quite obnoxious, and Dash just seemed like a 'yes' man. The story itself seemed hopeful at the start, but as I read more it became a bit unrealistic and dead.
However, I will give Macomber's books another go as she is such a big author and maybe the book was just a dud for me, I may try a summer romance this time.
With that said, I will be giving this book 3 out of 10
