My Review:
From the cover to the synopsis, I was immediately intrigued to read the book. Having read Cantrell's works before I really wanted to read what she came up with time around. Needless to say, I was hooked with the story and how the characters evolved throughout the book.
In Triplets Under the Tree we get to meet Caitlyn and Antonio, whose paths crossed and for different reasons they ended up becoming brother and sister-in-law, instead of getting the chance to be in a relationship. Right from the very beginning we get a quick flash of what was happening to Antonio and it all happens fast, we get the feeling that he is in some type of trouble and the whole scene is confusing for the character. Then we go back to the present in which Caitlyn is boried about her three babies, she goes on to remember the events leading up to her present state. That is when we get to find out that she had been a surrogate for her sister, aka Antonio's wife.
After learning that both Antonio and her sister had died in a plan crash, she took over Antonio's fortune and company. Now she has to take care of a lot of things, including her children, and that has changed her life forever. As a single mother, she had to change her plans, but she loves what she calls her children now and is willing to do anything to protect them. When Antonio unexpectedly shows up at his house, she doesn't believe that he is really back, but now she fears that he'll want to take the babies away from her. Finding out that he has no idea who she is or that he is even a father is worse than she thought, now she has to teach him everything that he missed. But the more time she spends with him, the more she falls for him, and she'll have to decide whether to be with him or turn her back on him for good.
After been in a plan crash, Antonio Cavallari has lost his memories and the life that he once knew. Now he is back and ready to claim what is his no matter the cost. But the more he starts to trigger the memories that he once had, the more complicated his life becomes when he finds out the secrets that he kept and the ones that could potentially hurt his relationship with Caitlyn. I really enjoyed reading this book, it was interesting to read how Antonio slowly got some of his memories back. It is evident from the very start that the characters have chemistry and they can't get away from that. But things from their past could harm their relationship if they don't trust each other. Throughout the book we do get both perspectives and that just made the story that much more interesting to read. The babies have a lot of personality as well which was cute. Overall I highly recommend reading this book, it was funny and romantic with a lot of holiday spirit. : )
