There's nothing like curling up with a good romance when you can't go outside, and Debbie Macomber's books always hit that sweet spot. In this case it's her latest, Chasing the Clouds Away (#1,365).
The stage is set when poor but feisty Maisy from Seattle meets incredibly rich and grumpy Chase from Chicago at the airport. He just wants to buy a newspaper and refuses to understand why a clerk on her break won't take his money. Her friend Maisy sticks up for her. Nastiness ensues.
In the first fairytale element of this romance, Maisy just happens to be upgraded to the first-class seat beside his for the Chicago to Seattle flight. (When was the last time you've heard of someone with zero status on an airline being upgraded to first class?! Not for years!!)
Maisy, with her sincere delight in all things upgraded makes an impression on Chase. She in turn intuits that something is bothering Chase deeply and volunteers to drive him to his destination in Seattle. Much about his mood is explained when she drops him off at a funeral home. That meeting, of course, changes the course of all their lives.
Getting there is all the fun! Read if you believe in love, enjoy sweet romances and have faith that all things will work out for the best in the end for everyone.
