Deck the Palms

De: Kat Jackson

Narrado por: Annalee Scott

For the first time in her life, Allison Bradley feels like she's on the right path. She's left the west coast and as the holidays approach, she's settling into her new home in Clearwater Beach. A warm winter has never sounded so good, and she is absolutely not going to date anyone while she builds the next phase of her life.

Dating is the last thing on Drew Kingsley's mind. In fact, she's sworn it off for good. She'd much rather focus on her business—something she can control—and her grandmother, the one person she trusts will love her unconditionally.

Despite being thrown together by the meddling work of little old ladies, Allison and Drew do not want to like each other. But as the magic of the holidays surrounds them, even they will be forced to see that the walls they've built to protect themselves might be better taken down to let good love in.

Deck the Palms

Holiday romance
Slow-burn
Grumpy/sunshine
Meddling old ladies
New town, new start

I really enjoyed this holiday romance by Kat Jackson. Allison and Drew - both heavily guarded because of past relationships - kept running into each other outside of the professional arrangement they share. They're forced to team up to organize a holiday party for the Dunes residents, which requires quality time spent together. Iced hearts begin to thaw, the walls start to come down, and desire is making its way in.

The spice level is low, but the entertainment and banter make up for it.

Annalee Scott was great narrating! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
