AN O'BRIEN FAMILY CHRISTMAS

AN O'BRIEN FAMILY CHRISTMAS by Sherryl Woods

From the book jacket:

Dating Matthew O'Brien - a playboy and a younger man - cost Laila Riley her career and her parents' respect.  A high price, even for love - and when Laila decides it was just a fling, she breaks it off, despite Matthew's objections.

But the O'Brien family has other ideas, and they conspire to get Laila to join them on a Dublin holiday.  It's a great time to get away from it all, but Laila has reservations about the trip.  Matthew's bound to be there, and she's far from immune.  What if she can't resist temptation?

Meanwhile, the O'Briens are in an uproar over matriarch Nell's unexpected romance with an old flame.  Will she follow her heart despite the risks?  And will Laila discover that some risks are actually once-in-a-lifetime opportunities?

This was a cute little Christmas book with this fun family from Chesapeake Shores.  And set in Ireland - wouldn't that be a wonderful place to spend a holiday?  Lots of romance in the air for different members of this clan.

I've enjoyed all the books in this series so far.  But you really need to read them in order.  There are a lot of things going on that are continued from earlier books.  It took me a little while to remember who was who and what was what.  I'll be waiting for the next installment due out in a couple of months.
