Book Review: The Holiday Claus
Santa had it right with his Naughty and Nice list.
Me? I was firmly Team Nice.
Need help throwing together a holiday wedding in four days, big brother? No problem.
Need me to share my bed with your super hot best friend? If I must.
Want to be sure I won’t accidentally fall in love with said super hot best friend—Brooks Claus? Can’t promise that.
He may have moved away from our small town years ago, but there’s something about being near him again that brings back memories of that innocent crush I never quite got over.
Fifteen year old me had good taste because Brooks remains the hottest guy I’ve ever seen. Biceps to die for and a perpetual frown I wish I could flip.
He’s far too serious, much older, and exceptionally grumpy to ever be mine.
Until he kisses me under the mistletoe.
Where in the fine print does it say that being a little naughty can also be nice?
My Review
Talk about a first meeting. Lila and Brooks shared one passionate kiss, and it was all captured in the photo booth!
When Brooks mentioned things that Lila did from their childhood and what he already observed that she likes as an adult melted my heart. A man who truly loves someone will recognize the simple things when his woman does not think he is paying attention.
I love Brooks, Grandma and Winston, Lila's dog. They both were great editions to this story. I know that Brook's Grandma was playing matchmaker with Lila and Brooks. I am a dog mom, so anytime there is a dog in a story, I am going to fall in love with them. Winston and his cute homemade sweaters that Lila's mom makes for him.
This is a fun, fast read. One that you are sure to enjoy.
