Love at the Northern Lights by Darcie Boleyn

3.0

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC of Love at the Northern Lights.

Norway & the Northern Lights are high on my bucket list, so I jumped at the opportunity to read Love at the Northern Lights this holiday season.

So what happens when a wealthy, has it all runaway brides ends up in Norway in search of her estranged mother and meets what is essentially the modern day version of a Viking?

I loved the setting of this book, and absolutely adored the mother-daughter storyline that was happening alongside the romance, but compared to other holiday reads I've read this year, it just didn't do as much for my heartstrings as the others. I found that everything fell into place just a bit too well, and the romance storyline moved a bit too slowly for my liking. The cast of characters is fantastic (even Helen Ashford!), but I found myself constantly wanting more from the plot.

I won't be ruling out other books by Darcie Boleyn, but I also don't think I'll be recommending this one much. It's a 'meh' from me.
