Jesse’s Christmas:
Jesse is still not over the betrayal of his ex boyfriend. Everything about Christmas is a reminder of the worst time of his life. He hates Christmas. It’s been two years, but he’s not over it. His agent sends him on an assignment to Eden Vale, a town he’s calling Christmasville. There he meets Gabriel, who still believes in the magic of the season. Can Gabriel help Jesse stop hurting and find the magic in the season? The author wrote Jesse so you feel his pain. You want him to find happiness in life again, to find the passion that fueled his art and photography. Gabriel is a gentle soul, happy with who he is and his place in life even if he is a bit lonely. I love the journey as Jesse and Gabriel find each other. And when Jesse finds meaning in Christmas again.
