A dash of perfect for the holidays!Dilyn Hart hates Christmas, so when her boss (and ex-boyfriend) hands her an assignment to interview champion snowboarder and gorgeous playboy extraordinaire, Dash Grainger, on Christmas Eve, she takes it. There are several things she doesn’t plan for—a surly driver, a chalet in the middle of nowhere, a freak snowstorm—but the biggest surprise of all is Dash … is Dash himself.
Dash Grainger lives for the high, and so far in his twenty-six years, he’s never met anyone or anything he loves more. Nothing has ever thrilled him as much as slick snow, cold air, and breakneck speed.
Until he meets Dilyn.
But one perfect night doesn’t mean clear, blue skies the next day. Some storms can’t be weathered.
Christmas might just be one of them.
This is a fun, sexy, standalone Christmas novella. If you want to lighten up your holiday, warm up your night or steam up your windows, give this a read. Mature readers only.

I was totally in the mood for a quick, sexy, fun Holiday read and this novella totally hit the spot for me.
I know that I will never be disappointed when I pick up a Michelle Leighton book and this was no different. I love that she gave us a fun, sexy and entertaining read that focuses around the Holidays. I also loved that it wasn’t overloaded with Holiday cheer, it was the perfect amount. She was able to give us fun and engaging characters with a storyline that will keep your attention all the way through.
Dashing Through the Snow is a standalone novella that can be read a couple hours. It is the story of Dilyn and Dash. Dilyn is a journalist who doesn’t like the Christmas holiday. So when her boss Jake (Also her ex) sends her on an assignment to interview the Olympic Snowboarder Dash, she is more than happy to help. Little did she know what she was getting herself into 😉 Dash is an Olympic Snowboarder who loves the thrill of the rush he gets from testing limits. He is also a playboy who doesn’t believe in love or happy ever after. Can these two push each others limits and start to believe….in both Love and Christmas??? Read this book to find out.
Even though this is a novella and fairly short, it wasn’t lacking for anything. Michelle was able to give us enough storyline to help the reader connect with the characters. She was also able to give us a storyline that will connect with all your emotions. I know there was a part in the story towards the end that I was wiping a stray tear from my face.
So if you have a couple spare hours and are looking for that Holiday read that will bring a smile to your face, pick up Dashing Through the Snow !!! If you are a fan of Michelle’s then you won’t want to miss this little gem.
This is a cute little story that will be sure to get you in the Christmas spirit. I enjoyed the basis of Dash and Dilyn’s story and since she’s a reporter that scores an interview with the hot as sin snowboarder it was a great way for them to get to know each other in a short amount of time. Oh, boy! By the end you’ll never look at s’mores the same way again.
Dash Grainger is a man who likes to walk on the wild side, he takes risks and tempts fate just to feed his adrenaline addiction, and he’s never found anything that could quench his thirst for danger…until now. He never planned for a woman like Dilyn Hart to waltz into his life, but now that she has he has no intention on letting her leave… she however, doesn’t date men like him, ones who like to gamble with their lives. Now he must find a way to convince her he’s worth the risk, and worth sticking around for…
The moment Dilyn Hart finds out that her boss is sending her to interview the famed bad boy of snowboarding she is ready to back out, she has heard stories about him, and she has no intention of being the next conquest on his list of challenges. But her boss isn’t budging on this one, so she must go no matter how much she doesn’t like it… and once she sees the daredevil in the flesh she realizes all the rumors are true…he is one fine specimen! Now she must find a way to stick to her guns, fight his advances no matter how gorgeous he maybe, and not land herself between the sheets with him. Which maybe easier said then done…especially when a snowstorm leaves her stranded with him!!
It has been a while since my last book from this author, and after a few paragraphs into this one, I was left wondering why I had waited so dang long…her books are magical!! The instant I started this story I was completely hooked, the sexy banter between these two had me on the edge of seat in anticipation of the hot little explosion I was sure to come…and I am happy to report I got my wish …and then some!! Nobody does romance quite like Ms. Leighton, she has a special knack for giving readers a story filled with exactly what they want, and leaving them completely satisfied, but dying for more at the same time!! I highly recommend you pick this one up, it is sure to put you in the Christmas spirit, and keep you plenty warm on these cold winter nights!!
