There are two types of relationships: fake and real. Chuck and Kate’s used to be real, oh-so-real. But after she broke his heart four months ago, leaving him, it became all just pretense for the sake of their entwined families. With parents who are best friends and business partners, it’s not easy for Chuck and Kate to announce they’ve split up. But with the holidays looming over them, they can no longer keep pretending. Chuck and Kate head home for Christmas, determined to tell the truth—and end up accidentally engaged instead. The more they try to pull apart, the more the Universe seems to push them back together, shortening the road to the altar. And when just-for-show kisses stir up forgotten feelings, things get even more complicated. Now, with the midnight hour approaching, will Chuck and Kate’s relationship turn out to be real or fake?

No one wants to be single at the holidays. Even Little Miss Grinch, Nikki, a successful and independent woman, must face her bachelorette status at the most horrible time of the year. December is her personal version of holly-jolly hell: a merry torture made of couples kissing at every corner, forced vacation days, and an inescapable family reunion. And when her baby sister announces she’s engaged—to Paul, the man Nikki is secretly in love with—and that he’s spending the holidays with them, Christmas starts looking bluer than ever. Nikki can’t possibly survive an entire week trapped home as the family’s spinster. But she has no time to meet men or to try the newest dating app, she’s too busy working as a video producer for an advertising agency. So what’s a girl to do? Nikki has the perfect solution: to hire a fake boyfriend. Luckily, her job gives her access to an endless catalog of gorgeous actors to choose from. But Nikki will soon discover that keeping business and pleasure from mixing isn’t so easy, and that she might not be immune to a little mistletoe magic. Especially not when she picked out the perfect man as her Christmas date... A fun, festive romantic comedy with lots of bad behavior and Christmas spirit. Like a creamy hot chocolate with marshmallows, you won’t want to put this deliciously hilarious novel down. Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Sally Thorne, and Jo Watson.

Santa's suit isn't the only thing that will be red this Christmas season.. -Natalia- Being a dancer in the New York Ballet might be prestigious, but it doesn't guarantee financial stability. Not only am I responsible for myself, but I'm trying to pay off my parents' debt. And I need their money now. Thankfully, a fellow dancer tips me off to a money-making opportunity of mass proportions. The only downfall is it's a Gentlemen's club- owned by Thomas De Santi, New York's richest and most notorious mobster. Money talks, though. At least until I catch Thomas' eye and get a lot more than I bargained for. Christmas is supposed to be a time of good cheer, but a Mob Christmas also comes with love, lust, secrets, blood, and murder- and now, I can't tell who I am anymore or where I'm even trying to go. -Thomas- Running the New York mob-scene gives me an abundance of things- especially women. That's why I rarely fool around with the same one twice. I certainly don't waste my time with innocent women traipsing through the elites of the city, either. Until Natalia dances at my club to make money. She's dedicated to two things- her parents and the ballet company... and doesn't want anything to do with me. Lucky for her, I'm a man of many talents, and I always get what I want... which is her. Just when I think I'm making progress with the strong-headed little siren, my enemies infiltrate the theater and put my woman directly in the line of fire. Now, they've forced my hand, and I have no choice but to bring Natalia to my home. It's the only way to keep her safe. I don't care how much money her parents owe; they'll have to take my life before they get another shot at her, and believe me- I can make Krampus look like a cake-walk this holiday season if they want.
