I finished this holiday story but it didn't have much plot and the heroine was awful. She didn't communicate at all instead she just turned mean then had sex but still didn't talk things over. Tori is attracted to one of her bosses Brody but didn't act on it because she doesn't want to lose her job.

I didn't like it much. The characters were strange and the plot was not very good.

In this conclusion to the Kent brothers something is missing. The characters are not very well built and the plot seems to lack something. Sometimes it is boring and others it just doesn't make sense. ( )

* This is the third and final book in the Kent Brothers series, however it is a stand alone and reading the previous two books is NOT required. But if you haven’t read them, you will want to after reading this one.*

For three years, Jaci Burton has graced us with the pleasure and privilege of being able to visit the Kent family of Missouri. For all of that time, Brody Kent has had a thing for Tori Lewis. In fact, Brody’s attraction for Tori started the day she walked into his family’s construction office four years ago, he just thought she was too young for him. For Tori, the attraction and love goes back even further than that. Tori has been in love with Brody since high school. Roger and Stacy Kent have even made Tori their unofficial adopted daughter. There isn’t a family event she isn’t included in.

Things for Brody and Tori come to a head at the Kent Construction Christmas party in last year’s A Rare Gift. At the party, in the middle of a heated argument between Brody and Tori, Brody kisses Tori and she kisses him right back. After the kiss, Tori realizes it was a mistake and that she can’t possibly get involved with Brody Kent. Brody has a well deserved reputation around town as being a love them and leave them kind of guy. Tori doesn’t want to be just another notch on his bedpost. In addition to that, she loves Roger and Stacy Kent and the rest of the Kent family. She doesn’t want to lose the family ties she’s made with them or her job at Kent Construction because of Brody.

For Brody, that kiss changed everything for him. He realizes that he wants to give himself a chance with Tori, but Tori is now avoiding him like he has the bubonic plague. Tori is in the office being meaner than usual to all the Kent brothers and Wyatt and Ethan know the reason has something to do with Brody, they just don’t know what. Wyatt and Ethan both tell Brody to fix Tori and the dance of the magnets begin.

Tori and Brody actually have an easy time talking and hanging out with each other, when they aren’t trying to fight their attraction. Brody is more than just the love them and leave them guy everyone thinks he is, and he will do anything he can to make Tori realize that. Unfortunately, his family and various people in town just can’t seem to leave him and Tori along.

I love happy ending romances. For me, it’s the journey a couple takes to get to that final destination that I love so much. People tend to shy away from love and commitment because they don’t want to risk their heart getting broken. But there are definitely times when that risk is well worth the reward in the end. Brody and Tori both finally decide to take that risk and their journey is incredible. But of course, there’s a Kent brother involved, so you know sooner or later, he’s going to mess up royally.
