It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and Whitney Cortland is ready to celebrate the holiday season with an extra special someone. Unfortunately, a series of shocking events quickly turns her joyful vision of the holidays into disappointment.
Her attempts to drown her sorrows with some retail therapy leads to meeting an equally holiday - obsessed new friend, Macy, who is determined to help raise Whitney’s spirits.
What Whitney doesn’t expect is how Macy’s older brother Grant could be such a grinch, not at all interested in the magic of the holiday season. Their first encounter doesn’t go well, and Whitney wonders how the siblings could be related. Whitney and Grant seem to have a mutual dislike for one another, or do they? As Whitney tries to change up her luck, she finds herself in Grant’s orbit more often than she wants.
With everything around her feeling out of control, Whitney wonders if this might be her unluckiest Christmas ever … or is her luck is just beginning?

Kick off the holiday season with this new swoony romantic comedy from USA Today bestselling author Melissa Baldwin!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better Than a Hallmark Movie
Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2022

If you like closed door romance with lots of chemistry, amazing kisses and all the Christmas feels, this book is for you. There was no small town, no flannel, and no big business man taking over the world, but I loved this so much more than a Hallmark movie. I loved these people’s Christmas plans.

Melissa Baldwin does such a great job of giving us great HEAs with a little bit more realistic relationships. I loved that each character was going through their own difficult time close to the holidays for many different reasons. We got a feel for their trials without the book feeling angsty either. The characters weren’t perfect, they were just normal people.

I loved that there was no huge conflict that drove the main characters apart, and then they were reunited with some huge grand gesture at the end. They just worked through their problems as they came up and showed what a real life relationship should be like while still giving us all the love.

4.0 out of 5 stars This was such a cute Christmas romance! It helped pull me right out of the reading slump I was in!

This story was so cute! Just like a Hallmark movie!!
We start off this story with Whitney and her (at the time) boyfriend Pete, getting sushi and seemingly in a perfect relationship. Planning a wonderful Christmas when Pete drops a bomb…. He doesn’t think he’s ready for a committed relationship and he wants some time apart from Whitney. Well what is any Christmas obsessed girl suppose to do when her boyfriend dumps her at the beginning of December… a little Christmas retail therapy of course. And that is where our story really kicks off because while doing a little Christmas decor shopping Whitney runs into Macy who just so happens to be a Christmas/holiday influencer and they hit it off like two peas in a pod. And what kind of Christmas romance would it be if Macy didn’t have a smokin hot older brother named Grant. Of course everything isn’t just smooth sailing as Grant and Whitney don’t have a great first meeting leaving a bad impression on Whitney especially when Macy is trying to set Whitney up with another friend of hers…. Set up or no set up though SPARKS continue to fly between Whitney and Grant until they finally cave in and decide to see where all this chemistry might lead them. If you’re looking for a cute grumpy/sunshine or should I say Christmas obsessed/grinch romance with cute date scenes, relatable characters, relatable family scenes, and just the right touch of Christmas magic than this is absolutely a book to add to your TBR!!

HAPPY READING 📖

Quick. Uplifting. Makes you smile. Holidays are hard for a lot of people but this story gives us a glimpse that life can be good following life changing events. This would make the perfect Hallmark Christmas movie (hint hint). You know how it's going to end before you start. Enjoy!

I very much enjoyed the story itself and writing overall; however I was really distracted by a ton of typos especially those that interrupted the reading flow. I understand self published authors might not be able to afford professional editing services but readers deserve a smooth reading experience..

Whitney is feeling a bit low before Christmas and whilst out shopping meets Macy in a department store and they get chatting. Macy invites her to a get together at her place where she intends to set her up with her husband's friend and while Chad is nice, it's Macy's brother that has her temperature soaring through the roof
