Grumpy meets Sunshine in this hilarious festive romcom that will have you wishing for a HEA!

Sutton Alsop hates Christmas. So much so, when confronted with a house that looks like Santa himself vomited Christmas all over it, she accidentally (drunkenly) destroys every fairy light, fake reindeer and candy cane in sight. Unfortunately for Sutton, this house belongs to none other than Gus Langston, single dad and owner of the village’s year-round Christmas shop – aka Mr Christmas himself.

But Mr Christmas has a secret only Sutton knows…

With the two of them forced together for the holidays, the sparks between them are hot enough to melt even the coldest of hearts!

Such an enjoyable story, with a very memorable opening chapter between Sutton and Gus. After all you don't see someone punching an inflatable santa every day. 

But thanks to this, it leads to Sutton ending up as a nanny to his adorable 4 year old twins.  And Gus who present a Christmas loving persona to the world, is less keen on it in private, and Sutton has never experienced a British Christmas. However she agrees to give the twins the best festive period she can. 

And thus we have all manner of fabulously festive activities going on, and the twins are fabulous  Not only that there are two pets a dog and a pig that I think, thinks its a dog. 

it was just a really entertaining story, and I loved getting to know both of our lead characters.  Learning Sutton's circumstances including her rather toxic friendship, and also discovering just why Gus is a single father, and outwardly appearing to love Christmas, is really a pleasure to discover. 

I had a great time reading this festive treat. 

Thank you to One More Chapter and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
