Jingle Bell Fling

Love was never part of their holiday build planI moved to Snowberry Hollow five years ago to be left alone in the silence and solitude of the mountains. But when Sunny Camden blows into town in a storm of Christmas chaos, my quiet life is thrown into festive flux.With her candy-cane striped tights, reindeer earmuffs and boots with literal jingle bells, she’s hired to coordinate the town’s annual Christmas festival, but she’s way too much enthusiasm for my taste. So, when the President of the council volunteers me to help Sunny build the booths for the Christmas Market, it’s the last thing I want to do.She’s irritatingly loud, annoyingly bright, and impossible to ignore. Everywhere she goes she leaves a trail of tinsel, gingerbread and holiday happiness. And now the longer I’m stuck at her side, the more I catch myself waiting for the next laugh, the next smile...the next way she’ll surprise me.I make things even worse when I tell everyone Sunny and I are together in an effort to dodge a blind date set-up. Now we’re fake dating in front of the entire town, pretending we’re the perfect couple.She was supposed to be temporary. A holiday storm I just had to weather. But Sunny Camden is giving me something I never thought I’d find again.Hope.And for a guy who stopped believing in hope years ago, that’s dangerous, because if I fall for Sunny Camden, there’s no faking my way out of it.
