No one wants to navigate the holidays solo, not even Little Miss Grinch, Nikki, a prosperous and self-sufficient woman who must confront her single status during the most challenging season of the year.
For Nikki, December transforms into her personal holly-jolly hell: a festive torment marked by couples sharing kisses at every turn, obligatory vacation days, and an unavoidable family gathering. The situation intensifies when her younger sister announces her engagement to Paul, the man Nikki secretly harbors feelings for, and reveals that he’ll be joining them for the holidays. Suddenly, Christmas appears more daunting than ever.
Trapped at home for an entire week as the family’s perceived spinster, Nikki faces a dilemma. With no time for traditional dating or exploring the latest dating app due to her demanding job as a video producer for an advertising agency, she hatches the perfect solution: hiring a fake boyfriend.
Fortuitously, her profession grants her access to a vast catalog of attractive actors. However, Nikki soon discovers that maintaining a clear boundary between business and pleasure proves challenging, and she might not be immune to a bit of mistletoe magic—especially when the man she selected as her Christmas date turns out to be the perfect choice.
This delightful and festive romantic comedy brims with humor, mischief, and Christmas spirit, akin to a creamy hot chocolate adorned with marshmallows. Once you dive into this deliciously entertaining novel, you won’t want to put it down. Ideal for enthusiasts of Sophie Kinsella, Sally Thorne, and Jo Watson, “First Comes Love” is part of a series of interconnected romantic novels, each of which can be enjoyed as a standalone story.
