Alex’s traditional family Christmas Compromise means spending the holiday at a second-rate theme park, Poseidon’s Planet, but Alex doesn’t mind. He enjoys the rides and the company of his family, and it’s a good break from his going-nowhere existence back in Indiana. Then he meets a certain sexy employee in a pirate costume, and Alex’s vacation gets even better. But thrill rides last only a short time, and sooner or later everyone has to return to real life. Alex long ago gave up on marrying a handsome prince—will he have to give up on his pirate as well?
Dani's rating:
The story takes place over a couple days, and even though there's no steam, save for a few lingering kisses, and no epilogue, I bought Alex and Rory's HFN hook, line, and sinker.
After reading a few stories by inexperienced authors, I really appreciated Fielding's flair for language and dialogue.
I liked Alex's crazy but totally normal family and Rory's out-of-the-blue proposal. This is a short story, but I finished feeling happy and satisfied. And that's good enough.
