Running In Snow: A Holiday Novella by Renee Regent – Review by Liz Vrchota

Running In Snow, A Holiday Novella by Renee Regent
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

One of my favorite things about the holiday season is getting to devour sweet and soul-warming novellas that center around the magic of the season. Running In Snow: A Holiday Novella, is just that. Two heart and soul warming short stories that bring to life the promise of hope. I loved that these books were taken from the experiences of the author and spun into the stories. It made them seem just a little bit more magical.

Noelle’s Promise:
This lovely novella brings us the story of Noelle. Noelle has a history of bad Christmas memories and is determined to avoid celebrating the holiday forever. Things soon start to look like that is not going to be an option since she has developed a relationship with her boyfriend Logan. Him and his family convince her to give it one more shot. Nothing of course comes easy and the past begins to rear its ugly head. Will Noelle run and avoid the feelings that come to head or will she face the past long enough to bury it and start anew? This was a sweet and short novella, almost making me want a tad more. I think a lot of that has to do with how much I enjoyed Noelle’s character. I feel like she has even more story in her, or just maybe one with a tad more detail, but for the holiday novella idea this covers everything.

Eve’s Hope:
Eve of course is the main gal for this novella. She was a bit more light-hearted of a read. Even doesn’t enjoy New Year’s Eve, in fact she thinks the whole thing is just jinxed for her and she does everything in her power to keep herself in a safe and neutral space for this one evening. Of course we need a sweet twist to make that interesting so things don’t quite go as Eve had hoped they would. Will she be able to embrace the ideas of NYE and start new memories that will be worth celebrating? I think this one has to be my favorite of the two and again I would have to say I would love more of Eve as well.
