I know, it's just October; so why am I reading Christmas books, right? Well, usually at this time of year I'm elbows deep in a Christmas WIP and it helps keep me in the right frame of mind if it's December in my reading worlds, as well. Real life can be very disconcerting, at times.
Anyway, this was a cute book. Predictable in all the usual Christmas RomCom ways--which isn't a criticism, btw. Low angst--also not a criticism. And I loved the setting (inside a publishing company) and that both h/h were editors! That was different and fun and dear to my heart. Although I think it has to be said: those competing children's book they're both working on? They sound HORRIBLE.

The scorching hot stripper is my new co-worker? Yes, I drooled over Finn Hayes last weekend as he gyrated in a sparkly fuchsia thong. So what?
But Lacy Callahan, the unflappable career woman, does not let her hair down, does not blab her secrets, and certainly does not try to kiss a stripper! Except last weekend. I flapped.
And now, I have to make senior editor at Sutton & Sutton Publishing by getting my author's children's Christmas novel on bookshelves everywhere. It's also how I plan to rekindle the spark between me and my ex, Joshua, who just got promoted at Sutton.
My roadblock? Finn, who came up with a concept for a competing children's Christmas novel. Unfortunately, he's witty, quirky, and brings me chip-infused sandwiches. It's too bad I have to crush him.
And what's he hiding? Why is he editing by day and stripping by night?
