Candice Gaines loves Christmas. Not only does she bask in the twinkling lights, sing Christmas carols and go crazy with the decorations, she’s also in the giving spirit, donating much of her time and wealth to various charities in the local area.Charlie Sullivan despises Christmas. Though it keeps his family afloat, considering they own Sullivan Family Christmas Tree Farm, the main provider for Christmas trees on the Monterey peninsula. He’d much rather work among the trees versus have to deal with people.
But Charlie’s parents are taking on more philanthropic projects—and as their oldest child, they want him to be their official public representative. He just has to play nice and convince everyone he’s not a total holiday hater.
When Charlie’s mom asks Candice to accompany him to a variety of holiday parties and events, she reluctantly agrees. She thinks Charlie is a big ol’ Grinch, but is determined to change his mindset and help him spread Christmas cheer. Charlie finds Candice too chatty, too sweet, too much. Do people like her really exist?
Why yes, yes they do. The more time they spend together—along with a few kisses under the mistletoe—the more they start to like each other. Hopefully Charlie can convince Candice he doesn’t have a heart that’s two sizes too small before the ball drops on New Year’s Eve.
CHRISTY'S REVIEW:
This was such a fun and sweet holiday romance! I love a good grumpy hero and Charlie was perfect! I loved the banter and chemistry between Charlie and Candice. It made me so happy!
Candice loves Christmas and she's full of cheer. She spends her days volunteering and planning and the holidays is her time to shine. She's at event to event and she enjoys it. Charlie Sullivan's family owns the biggest tree farm and he is a bit of a grouch. He definitely has no interest in going to any holiday events or parties, even if it would be good for business. Charlie's mom has a brilliant idea- to get Candice to help Charlie at these events.
Charlie can be a grump, but he can also be really sweet. I loved watching him warm up to Candice and watching her see him open up and see the softer side of him. The end of this book made my heart so happy and if you're looking for a holiday book to make you smile and get in the holiday spirit, I highly recommend this one!
