Lights, Cameras, Holidays
(Finding New Hope #3)
By Rachelle Paige Campbell
Contemporary Fiction, Holiday Romance
Paperback & ebook, 234 Pages
December 14, 2021 by The Wild Rose Press, Inc.

Actress Kara Kensington flies to New Hope, Wisconsin, where she’ll spend the winter holidays filming a movie. Her entire career depends on the success of the feel-good story based on her best friend’s life. To salvage her strained friendship with Dani, Kara asks the cute guy from the flight to act as her new boyfriend. But the longer she spends with him, the less she’s acting.

For Chef Scott Neil, his holidays aren’t only about family togetherness. He wants Aunt Shirley and Uncle Ted to retire. When he’s asked to fake a relationship with Kara, he agrees. As he gets drawn into Kara’s production, he questions what is real and what’s just for show. Only a fool would fall in love with America’s sweetheart.

My review of Lights, Cameras, Holidays

Lights, Cameras, Holidays is the type of story that has plenty of holiday romance feels, but it also has some deep themes about friendship and what’s really important. I didn’t read the first two books in the series. Though you can read this book on its own, I think you’d benefit from reading the others first. I was a little lost as to what the conflict between Kara and Dani, but it’s easy to quickly catch up. So, if you’re like I am and missed the first two books and just want to jump in here, you’ll still be fine.

In Lights, Cameras, Holidays we get a meet-cute on a plane between a famous actress and a chef visiting his family. However, the chef has no idea who she is though she does look a bit familiar to him….

This story was cute with a Hallmark movie feel complete with a snowstorm and fake relationship. I’m a sucker for a good pretend relationship that turns real story. Scott and Kara made a great “couple” right from the start.  They’re both very strong characters who have big conflicts to overcome. Since I don’t want to give you any spoilers, I’ll just say that it was inspiring to see how they both get through their conflicts. Life isn’t perfect, and we’ve all gone through things that don’t end how we planned. This makes Lights, Cameras, Holidays more realistic.

If you enjoy pretend to real romance stories with a small town setting, you’ll enjoy Lights, Cameras, Holidays.
