Tanya Boteju: Setting the Stage for Christmas, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A sizzling yet sweet festive rom-com about a small-town theatre director forced to put her faith in the woman who once shattered her heart, so they can save not only the show, but their whole community, too.

>
When a local landmark goes up for sale, and the town looks to Bo to save it, she does exactly what her mother would do: draws up plans to produce the loudest, most magical play to save the day---or at least bring in enough ticket sales to fend off any prospective buyers. To pull it all off, Bo needs a set builder who can bring her vision to life, but the only option seems to be the newly returned Val Morales, Bo's long lost high school crush. Sure, Val's incredibly talented, more than willing to help, and still sets Bo's heart thumping, but, how can she trust the girl who ghosted and broke her heart ten years ago? And, why did Val come back to Cedar Creek after all these years, anyway?

Val Morales didn't think she'd ever find herself back in Cedar Creek. Freshly divorced, unemployed, and floundering, she was glad to take the lifeline her demanding parents threw her way when they asked her to help with their realtor business. She's able to escape her parents' disappointment at her life's recent downturn and maybe even impress them by finding a buyer for this lucrative property in Cedar Creek. She wasn't expecting to run into Bo, her first, most pivotal love, or for Bo to ask for her help designing the set for the annual holiday play. When Val realizes the property she's trying to sell is the same one the play is trying to save, she is forced into an impossible place---will she break Bo's heart all over again?

As the past and their longing for one another creeps up on them, Bo and Val must figure out a way to maneuver around their conflicting goals and pressures. At once an utterly delightful holiday romcom and a tender exploration of past, present, and future selves, Tanya's adult debut Setting the Stage for Christmas will both entertain and warm hearts.
