This is truly a love story to all things Michigan in winter. When Amberrose, or, Sunny Dunes as she's renamed her tv personality as a meteorologist in Palm Springs, becomes obsolete when her clueless boss replaces her with a robot, she is forced to return home to Michigan and work for a startup news station. As her introduction to Traverse City News, she has to tape segments of herself enjoying all the winter festivities Michigan has to offer. All this winter fun and Christmas cheer bring back the guilt and grief of losing her little sister too young and she struggles to overcome her misery. But then a letter from a new friend and love interest, Mason, about his own loss helps her put things in perspective.
The author pointed out that we want our news personalities to seem like real people and I agree. I love all the stories of them enjoying festivals, new restaurants, winter activities, etc because it adds a human touch. I love how by returning home helps Sunny deal with her grief. In the end when she has a big decision to make, she realizes what's really important in her life. Great heartfelt and inspirational story!
