A WILD GOOSE CHASE CHRISTMAS

Upon her grandmother's death, Izzy Fontaine finds herself in possession of a Wild Goose Chase pattern quilt that supposedly leads to a great treasure. Of course, once the rest of the family finds out about the "treasure map," they're determined to have a go at the treasure themselves. And, if that weren't enough, Max Logan, a local museum curator, contacts Izzy and says that Grandma Isabella promised him the quilt.

What is it about this quilt that makes everyone want it? Is Izzy on a wild goose chase of her own, or a journey that will lead her to the treasure her grandmother intended?

My Review:

published in c2012

I've been having a blast catching up on this Quilts of Love series courtesy of Audible Plus and this one is extra special because of the seasonal theme. Definitely a Hallmark worthy plot with characters you either love or...not so much...and an enemies to more love story. Along with the heritage quilt that takes centerstage and is the source of much conflict. 

Izzy is on the outskirts of her fractured family and her unexpected legacy from her beloved grandmother threatens to add new fissures to an already crumbling family foundation. Really enjoyed the way the author lets us slowly into Izzy's past which helps to make sense of her present circumstances. 

Izzy and Max's meet-cute is a perfect comedy of errors (insert me fan-girling over Max's grandfather!) I can't say much more without spewing a landmine of spoilers, but this story is perfectly plotted and I appreciated that those 'dark moments' that inevitably come in a romance weren't over-the-top or prolonged. Just the right mix of angst and regret to spice things up and keep a reader on edge waiting for the happily ever after.

Goal Update: #2 Catch up on a series I'm behind in
