Reeling from a broken engagement, Andi Carter swears off men. She quits her job in New York and returns home to figure out next steps. Luckily, she quickly finds a job--one that will take her mind off her ex--as a caretaker for an elderly widower, Liam Quinn. Liam is the owner of Christmastown, a holiday-themed amusement park that shut down years ago. But he’s anxious to reopen it, and Andi, loving the concept, throws herself into helping him. It’s the perfect distraction. Bonus: there are no eligible men for miles.

Until Matt Taylor shows up to audit the park.

Matt is handsome, charming, and full of surprises. Even Liam’s notoriously cranky cat, Claus, likes him. Andi works with Matt on a Christmastown project and platonic feelings turn into a full-fledged crush…maybe a little more. She likes this guy. Unbelievably, Matt seems to like her back.

Only she soon discovers that Matt isn’t who he says he is. So now, Andi has another decision to make—run away and start over—again? Or stay, and hear Matt out? After all, Christmas is the season of miracles…

Read an Excerpt

She doesn’t finish her sentence. She doesn’t have to. I know how it ends. Andi needs Christmastown to become a reality.

And I’ve been charged with making sure that doesn’t happen.

Review: After the crash-and-burn of her engagement, Andi becomes determined to get Christmastown, a holiday dilapidated theme park, up and running again. The place was owned by a 90-year-old man, and his daughter, worried of the financial ramifications, sends a spy to look out for things.

There’s instant chemistry and a connection between Andi and Matt. Right away, he feels guilty about starting off on a lie with her. The missions were different: she was working to get the theme park open and he was sent to shut it down. Still, Matt roots that Andi will be able to pull it off and offers to help in any way he can. They come up with the idea to arrange a fundraiser for potential investors, calling it The Santa Games. But it’s all fun and games until a fire breaks out and Matt’s boss finds out what he’s been up to.

But none of that keeps them from opening Christmastown.

Witty and engaging! Matt and Andi were great together with their friendly banter and playfulness. Although the two were having fun, the hard reality was this: how could they make this happen without any investors?

The characters had incredible faith in their dream. It was Christmastown or bust!

What happens when the truth comes pouring out and Andi has to make a choice of whether to stay or leave? This story keeps you reading all the way!

A lighthearted, warm, and romantic read! Just perfect for the holidays!
