Description:
“The snow is coming down so fast, Amelia Parsons doesn't see the
speedingcar until it's too late. One moment she's crossing an ice-rutted street
in St. Stephens, Maryland. In the next, she's flying into the air, and the
world goes black. She wakes, confused, in what appears to be Santa's workshop
during the holiday rush. If that's not strange enough, a hunky FBI agent named
Daniel is there, demanding to know why she's involved in a plot to ruin
Christmas. Can she convince him she's not the villain and then work with him to
find the real saboteur?”

Appraisal:
This story is right up my alley. I dearly love fantasy and this tale
includes a mystery with a little magic as well. Under more than the usual
Christmas stress, Amelia is distracted while crossing the street and gets hit
by an oncoming car. Was it an accident or something more nefarious?
When Amelia awakens, she is in a mountainous snow-covered forest she
doesn’t recognize. Making her way towards lights in the distance, she is
rescued from a sudden avalanche by a handsome stranger. Daniel suspects she may
be a spy, since he is head of security in this remote township where
unexplained accidents have been happening.
Nick, Daniel’s boss, and his wife, Wendy, are sure Amelia has shown up
for a special reason. No one ever accidentally finds themselves around their
humble abode for no reason. I loved being swept away in this charming story
where my imagination could run free. I found the characters well-rounded and
the plot moves at a nice pace. I loved every minute of White Christmas and appreciated the promise of a budding
relationship between Daniel and Amelia.
