Novellas are typically short stories. Doing a quick Google search I found out that they are usually 60- 120 pages. It’s hard to review a novella without giving too much away so I decided to do mini book reviews for the novellas that I read along with a few thoughts I had while reading .
Synopsis
“Catching last minute flights is a part of the job when you’re hired to photograph events all over the country. Usually everything goes according to plan.
But when I was hired to document the Juneteenth celebration in Galveston, Texas, I had no idea my plans were going to be derailed.
The woman who scuffed my sneakers and didn’t apologize ended up having the seat next to me. Yeah, she was beautiful, but I was not feeling her at all.
And then our flight was delayed.”
My Review
4.5/ 5 stars
“The Delay: A Juneteenth Hot Holiday Hookup” is the latest installment in the Hot Holiday Hookup novella series by Danielle Allen. All installments are standalones. This installment tells Trenton Davis’s story. Trenton is headed to Galveston, Texas after being hired to photograph and document a Juneteenth celebration. After a chance encounter with India Davis at an airport terminal, things take a very steamy turn when their flight is delayed.
I really enjoyed this book. I have not read any of the other installments of the Hot Holiday Series so I definitely love that they can be read separately. This was a very easy read. I finished it in one sitting. Trenton and India were both fun characters. The story progressed at a steady pace. I loved the information about Juneteenth that was told throughout. There were definitely some laugh out loud moments as well. Overall, this was a steamy, fun read with the perfect pinch of drama. I look forward to reading more from Danielle Allen in the future.
