Merry Christmas!!

An unexpected inheritance. A pesky clause in the will. And 25 days to avoid falling in love.
Cassie Hayward hates Christmas. Especially this year. No job. Flat broke. And an ex most definitely on the naughty list. The unexpected inheritance of a charming Victorian cottage in the small town of Poppy Creek may be the Christmas miracle Cassie needs.
Except for one itty-bitty problem: a clause in the will.
To inherit the house, Cassie must complete a series of festive tasks every day in December leading up to Christmas. All overseen by the handsome, Christmas-loving lawyer Luke Davis.
Luke is as strong and steady as the bespoke furniture he crafts as a hobby. He has to be. Stepping into his late father's shoes as the town lawyer comes with a sleigh full of responsibilities. Which mean the captivating stranger collecting her inheritance is a distraction he can't afford.
As the unlikely pair complete the daily tasks, fighting their attraction becomes more futile than putting jolly ole St. Nick on a diet. But when someone from Cassie's past reappears with the offer of a lifetime, Cassie will have to choose between love and the life she always wanted.
MY THOUGHTS
Released a couple of years ago in 2019, this is the first book in a wonderful series. Each book has a recipe, a Christmas calendar and questions in case you are using this book or any in the series for your book club - a fabulous idea! Set in the quaint, charming town of Poppy Creek where strangers become family and hope and love always prevail, it is the perfect setting for a story for the holidays! As with any great hometown romance, the heroine has to choose to sacrifice what she 'thinks' is her future dreams for the man she has fallen for and is a delightful read for an afternoon under warm blankets in front of a fireplace while snow falls outside.
