Mistletoe, magic, and a little bit of make-believe. There’s no place like home for the holidays…unless you’re with my family. Things are bound to be awkward this year with my older sister bringing a plus one—who also happens to be my ex. And as if this Christmas couldn’t get any bluer, my boss is somehow mistaken for my boyfriend. Yes, John Barrington. The man who absolutely hates my guts. To save face, and my dignity, in front of everyone, I must play along with this fake relationship. But something’s different away from work. Call it holiday spirit, or a change of heart, but I’m starting to think John was never the man I thought he was. Now suddenly, this ruse is feeling more and more real. Things are about to get complicated—both in and out of the office—but what’s Christmas without a couple miracles? Cozy up with this heartwarming and holiday-fueled romance from USA Today’s bestselling author Melissa McClone, where a financial planner and her employer must pull off the ultimate Christmas charade. Tropes include fake dating, office romance, boss/employee, cheating ex dating her golden child sister, family drama, and a diva cat.
