Romance reviewer and author Charlotte O’Shay says:
The first story in Sadira Stone’s new Bangers Tavern series, Christmas Rekindled brings all the heat and sometimes gaudy sparkle of the season.
It’s early December and Charlie is unexpectedly back home in Tacoma to care for her dad after he breaks his leg. For extra income, since she’s missing web design work opportunities back in Portland, she decides to take a night job as a server at a tavern she used work in back in college.
River, a bartender at said tavern, is from the other, waspy side of the tracks, Gig Harbor. He had a major crush on slightly older, curvy, and gorgeous Charlie back in the day but she blew him off.
River is not a gangly underage guy anymore and he’s annoyed Charlie still has the power to pull him toward her. Though she’s nursing a broken heart and bruised ego from a failed live-in relationship and River’s lover died the previous year at Christmas time-, somehow his ever-present grief is lighter when she’s around.
River’s family wants him to move on, find a new girlfriend, preferably one of the perfect matches they’ve lined for him. River resists them but somehow he can’t resist Charlie.
When the tavern they love is threatened with closure by developers, Charlie and River team up with the other workers at the tavern with ideas to save Bangers. Will their rebound love affair be over in the new year or do River and Charlie have what it takes for the long haul? It was fun finding out.
Sadira Stone’s trademark strength is bringing a community of disparate people together as friends and lovers. Here we met River and Charlie, as well as a host of friends and family-the found family who will no doubt be featured in the future stories in this series.
I can’t wait to read more.
