Whiskey & Ribbons by Leesa Cross-Smith

2.0

There were many things I liked about this book...the different narrative voices and the way the story came together by interweaving the past with the longest snow day ever. But I thought it was going to be a powerful adoption story, and then when it turned out that Dalton and Eamon share the same biological father and that father goes from being a gentle, loving role model to a despicable philanderer in his sons' eyes, I found it jarring. Didn't seem to fit and in other ways, seemed like too simple a telling for an otherwise more complicated story.
