Snow Job

This was a pretty good, quick holiday read. Natalie is caught in a snow storm trying to do a favor for her brother in law. When she spies someone on the side of the road during the storm, she stops. Here she finds Russ, a man younger than her, but oh so handsome. When she comes to the decision he isn't going to hurt her, she invites him into the car. They start to travel, but soon find themselves stuck. Forced to walk to find shelter, they find cabins. But these cabins have not been inhabited in awhile and have virtually no food and no electricity. While they learn a lot about each other, depend on each other for survival, and start to fall for each other. When they get out and the real world closes in, will they still want what they found with each other?
I voluntarily reviewed and advanced reader copy of this book provided by NetGalley.

The blizzard causes an unlikely pairing of an older woman, Natalie, to a younger guy, Russ, who has an old soul. After I got into this book, it was hard to put down. Lots of intertwining story lines keep this story rolling, and the author ties everything up neatly at the end.

Snow Job by Kelly Fitzpatrick is an adventure of a lifetime. For both Natalie and Russ it was definitely a life changing event. Both got stuck and stranded in a snow storm. Leaving them inside an ugly,cold, and dirty cabin. One that had no running electricity, water, or food. Freezing their butts off and starving they eat spam and use snow for water. Struggling to survive the duration of the storm. Something more happens. Sending Natalie and Russ feeling hotter than coals on a fire. Lust. Romance. Emotions that neither wanted to feel occur. Strangers helping each other. However, when the storm ends will their hearts be one or broken?

Kelly Fitzpatrick has created a contemporary romance novel that is both funny and sweet. An older woman keeps herself from letting the best thing ever happen. Love. Russ is a bit younger than her. That alone fuels her energy to keep the distance. But their chemistry is so intense, Natalie can't deny it. Sex. She can't forget him even if she tried. Her heart says yes. But her mind says no. She leaves him. However, Russ isn't ready to call it quits. Broken heart or not, he searches until he finds her again. Natalie was easy to relate to as well as like. She's a mother figure trying to be the best for her teenage daughter. She wants to hold her daughter forever, but knows it's time to let go. Russ likes Natalie and her daughter. The daughter is sursprisingly smart for her age. Like a mini version of her mom. Russ comes to love them both and is willing to convince Natalie that. Only Natalie is fighting it all the way...Overall, I highly recommend Snow Job to readers everywhere.

Lovely seasonal read. Had a few laughs and really enjoyed this read

I was not a fan of this book. I did appreciate how for the most part the author tried to keep the language clean, that being said there are some adult scenes through out the book. I felt like there really wasn't much of a heart to this story I also felt like it seem to repeat its self a lot. This story was not for me however if you want to give it a chance its a fairly quick read.

Loved this sweet and funny story, Natalie is a widow stranded in a snow storm with former Teacher Russ. There’s an instant attraction between the two however Natalie is hesitant. Once they go separate ways it’s hard for them to forget the time they spent together. Russ discovered that Natalie has deceived him and he determined not to let her go. With the help of her family he’s able to convince her to trust in their love and future. Recommended read.

I liked this story and the characters for the most part, but at times the angst and issues wore a little thin. Do not see the need for the student to press charges against him, nor her obsession with her age. I liked it well enough though to read it through, and liked them together and liked her daughter and her sister. Would recommend, but more details in part would have made a stronger story.

Snow Job was a nice quick read.

I liked Natalie and Russ sexual chemistry.I didn't have connected too well with their feelings at the beginning but Natalie's struggles to letting go of her fears and grief make her more relatable in the second half of the story.
