A rising voice in romance, USA TODAY bestselling author Adriana Herrera (librarians will remember her from the romance favorite Here to Stay) releases the second novel in her Sambrano Studios miniseries.

A surprise snowstorm strands casting director Perla Sambrano & her leading movie star Gael Montez together with his family over Christmas in JUST FOR THE HOLIDAYS… [Harlequin Desire, mmp, on-sale now]. In a starred review of the novel, Library Journal says:

“Readers looking for a certain level of realism will find it here, combined with a dash of escapism. Using specific details, Herrera creates a compelling family dynamic and reassuring setting in very few pages. The book deals realistically with past hurts and doesn’t assume a fairy-tale ending can fix everything, though readers should have no doubt about the eventual happily-ever-after. Readers looking for holiday joy are sure to find it here, with winning characters and an emotional reunion perfect for the Christmas setting.“
