Blurb: Photographer Zach is happy to pack up his gear and head to the Mojave Desert over the holidays. Ever since his ex-husband filed for divorce a day before Christmas, it’s safe to say this isn’t Zach’s favorite time of year.
Fortunately, he stumbles upon a town where the residents seem to agree. The good people of Baker would much rather celebrate the possibility of extraterrestrials as they dance under the stars in their unique “Night Sky Festival.” The locals are interesting, to say the least, and they want Zach to join them.
But is Zach ready to let go of his holiday bitterness? And if so, whose invitation should he accept: the cute cashier, the burly single dad, or the sexy fun-loving cop?
Review:
Zach is not a big fan of Christmas, ever since his ex-husband filed for divorce few days before that time of the year. So, can’t blame Zach for being grumpy, especially when his latest photograph assignment sends him to the crazy town of Baker, at the edge of Mojave Desert, whose claim to fame is a store named Alien Fresh Jerky. Except… he’s also being flirted while here… not just one, or two, but three guys!!
This short story is pretty much just snippets of Zach coming to Baker, and well, being flirted on by a cute cashier, a burly single dad, or a sexy fun-loving cop. A new beginning, a possibility, something to celebrate on during the time when it brought hurt to Zach because of his ex-husband leaving.
I liked the grumpy voice of Zach, he was definitely planning to NOT having fun in this assignment. I mean, UFO, really?! *laugh* But of course the three guys that seem to be attracted to him gave Zach something to look forward to.
Overall Impression: It was good
