Dashing All the Way, by Chelsea Curto
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I don’t like novellas. They’re mostly too short to make any kind of impact and simply aren’t enough of a “bite”. At best, they’re like chewing gum.
So it was out of pure curiosity that I decided to read “Dashing All the Way”, a novella by Chelsea Curto, after it got heartily endorsed by Samantha Brinn (whom you should know as an author for her great “When I’m With You”).
The story is simple: Being told what she cannot do by her now-ex-boyfriend, Jeremy, Margo moves to accomplish just that, and, in the process, falls for his father, Finn—just in time for Christmas.
What follows is the warm-hearted, sometimes raw, and always honest tale of how a one-night stand evolves into something very different over the course of two weeks. It is nicely told, well-paced, and very, very steamy.
Nothing feels out of place, everything makes sense, there’s just enough story to satisfy my reading needs, and an amusing inevitable ending. What more could I wish for?
Five stars out of five.
