LitPick Review
A winter to remember. Or else a winter to forget. Harley,
Dove, and Melissa arrive from three different parts of the
country to begin their jobs at a ski resort in the Alps.
Each girl has a secret they want kept in the past, as
they begin a week full of work, fun, and romance.
Harley has a mission here--she knows what she wants and she
knows how to get it. For Dove, this week is just seven days
away from her wonderful vacation with her far-away
boyfriend. Melissa has other plans, she has taken this job
to forget the past and begin anew--but will the past creep
up on her? As tasty as the treats Melissa serves, as wild as
the parties Harley attends, and as mysterious as Dove
herself, Balancing Acts throws readers into a winter
wonderland of fun and romance.
Opinion:
<p>Balancing Acts presents
three different girls,each with their own story, and twists
them all into one. Harley, the wild child, becomes a lovable
character without whom the story could not blend. Melissa
and Dove are both sweethearts maturing and understanding
more about themselves and past experiences as the winter
progresses.
Emily Franklin presents heartwarming characters as well as
an adventurous plot that becomes wild with romantic twists
and gives the reader a chance to imagine a life of hard work
and secrets blended into one. The beginning tale of Harley,
Dove, and Melissa is worth reading--just grab a mug of hot
chocolate and sit by the fire and you are set to go.
