The Christmas Fix was just what I needed. It has my favorite trope (enemies-to-lovers!) mixed with great characters and super entertaining scenes, with just the right amount of sexy and sweet added. Check it out below!
The Christmas Fix by Lucy Score
She'll save Christmas just to spite him...
When a late season hurricane hits Merry, Connecticut, city manager and single dad Noah Yates has to inform the already devastated residents that there won't be a Christmas Festival this year. No festival means no tourism dollars. A disaster of epic proportions for his hometown.
But when home renovation expert slash smoking hot reality TV star Catalina King shows up with a camera crew and a budget big enough to put the town back together again, Noah balks. Hard. The last time Cat was in town she stirred up trouble everywhere she went. (Residents are still talking about the town's first and only bar fight.) Noah doesn't need a TV diva capitalizing on his town's tragedy or filling his daughter's head with glitz and glam.
Cat is ready and willing to put Merry back in Christmas mode with a holiday special that will leave everyone believing in miracles and get her friends back in the home they love. But there's one big problem standing in her way. And his name is Noah Yates. He's wrong about her and she can't wait to prove it. Ring those jingle bells because it's on.
4 out of 5 stars
The Christmas Fix was such an entertaining and
inviting holiday romance with wonderful characters. I loved the ups and
downs Cat and Noah went through, from their antagonistic and playful banter to
the awesome build and simmering chemistry, it made for a truly great read.
I really liked the enemies-to-lovers vibe Cat and Noah had
when they met. I liked them getting to know each other, their guards coming
down, and the feelings developing between them. She's very strong-willed and
job-focused and he's pretty quiet and by the book so I also really enjoyed the
opposites attract feel as well. I liked learning their histories and what
motivated their choices and thought processes. There were a few times both Cat
and Noah made me a little crazy but I loved them working it out and coming
together. There's a bit of angst and light drama mixed in, but the majority
is entertaining scenes and goodness with a nice amount of heat. When they get to the heat portion, oh my! It
was scorching!
I enjoyed the dual POVs, the development, and the
descriptions. There's a well-rounded group of secondary characters involved, keeping
things lively and I loved the small-town atmosphere. I really enjoyed Noah's
daughter Sara, she was adorable and a bit of an instigator. This was an excellent
story from the beginning, pulling me in, it was fast-paced fun!
