Meanwhile, Jayson Bright a successful downtown manager is facing the biggest deadline of his life, but a recent phone call with an old buddy who just got engaged has him checking out an online dating site where he stumbles upon Merry's profile and thus begins our story.
Macomber's holiday stories are always warm and fuzzy with sprinkles of tender moments that remind us of the true meaning of Christmas. While Merry and Bright, was completely predictable thanks to the reader being privy to who all the players were, it was delightful to watch it all unfold. At one point I was a tad annoyed that Merry didn't fess up, but Macomber made it work as Jay opened his eyes to those around him, or maybe just maybe Merry looked a little closer at the man she thought she knew.
I loved the online chats, advice from friends and the changes we see in Jay as he communicates with Merry. Her brother was adorable and his interference helped the story along. It was interesting to see the different sides of Jay. There was a thread regarding Jayson's father that I would have liked to know more about, but it didn't detract from the story.
